'thick' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'good morsels minced' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'minced' indicates an anagram.
'morsels' is an anagram of 'ormless'.
'g'+'ormless'='GORMLESS'
