I would like a nice rib roast or leg of lamb but the missus is a traditionalist and we will have the usual turkey and ham

Herself is doing her signature turkey roulade for Xmas Day. Got hams, cold meats and half the cheese counter to be getting on with as well.

just the standard Turkey family dinner, not my meat of choice, but then since we all going round to the sister house and she doing all the cooking, i can't complain

Steak pie on xmas day, preferably 'Bells', if I can't find one tomorrow (& I don't think I will), I'll get the ingredients to make my own, but I'll make shortcrust, not flakey pastry - not making that lol!
It's also great being a non-veg fan, I don't have to faff around with all that cooking.

OH's mum's husband has just taken the mahoosive ham out of the oven which is now resting for eating tomorrow once everything else is made.

Turkey, Gammon and Beef

Turkey this year as we are having my wife's side of the family round.
When it's just us we usually have duck or goose.

Ad_Augendae · 2024-12-24T13:22:55+0000

Goose and Gammon joint

sx_turbo · 2024-12-24T23:17:47+0000

Rolled turkey crown, can't be faffing around with the bones and stuff, I also find it easier to keep the meat moist wrapped in foil and a bottle of wine poured in the bottom of the tray wrapped in streaky bacon.

And gammon, slow cooked today in fresh orange juice then roasted and basted with honey, orange zest and marmalade mix.

Will be Turkey at my parents' place. Always much of a muchness really but tradition isn't really to be messed with.

Kelt · 2024-12-25T02:23:42+0000

I've ended up with turkey, gammon and beef.

I'll try and get a beef wellington for new year's.
