The Xmas dinner thread

[Rich2484]

So what's everyone having this year. Who's cooking it and what's the recipe you are using..?

 

I'm having turkey crown with cranberries made into a glaze over the top.

 

And a gammon joint that will have a honey glaze.

 

Then pigs in blankets and all the trimmings.

 

Goose fat spuds with some Thyme and rosemary.

 

I'm cooking it all as its Xmas and no one else is allowed to do it

All depends on what the local Sainsburys are knocking out at a massive discount tomorrow afternoon.
