So...what's on the menu for this Christmas Eve/Christmas Day

[Fijimn]

We are doing our traditional prime rib (sous vide 131.5/10), crispy smashed potatoes, creamed spinach, popovers with sticky toffee pudding & pistachio ice cream for dessert. I also have a brisket that's in my pastrami brine and will be ready for the smoker on Christmas Eve day -- we usually make pastrami biscuits & hash for Christmas morning brunch.

Christmas Day is usually brunch of different items and then we kind of just graze during the day. I'm going to a bunch of dim sum items and have a pot of homemade pho broth going to keep us warm.

Christmas Eve I’m doing southwestern salmon croquettes and a shrimp salad.
Christmas Day - doing roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. Daughter is doing up a small spiral sliced glazed ham. Gravy, Green beans, individual salads, maybe a baked squash, rolls. Daughter in law is making her party potatoes since she has an upper Midwest heritage but I’ve come to like them.
Pie and ice cream for dessert. Maybe an apple tart too.

All hostilities aside, safe travels!
Did I read a post of yours that you guys are vegan?

 

[Herkster5]

Brunch on Saturday, and brunch on Sunday. Very similar menus for both days, but Sunday's will have grits on the menu, which I'm very excited for.

Thanks, goldy. Much appreciated.

We're a mix. I'm the only meat eater in the family. My wife is vegan and daughters are vegetarian. We'll make vegan "meatballs" using the beyond meat product as well as a meaty version.

My kids are coming on Christmas Eve. W got some Pagliai's Frozen and snacks. We will watch the 1950 'Christmas Carol' with Alistair Sim as Scrooge. I got it on DVD some years back with the B&W and colorized versions. Probably will check out the Steelers-Raiders too and maybe watch Black Adam.

I just cherish the time with all my 4 kids together.

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

Op’s Mom with some garlic butter to make that ride glorious. Then I’ll use that butter with crab legs and shrimp. Might even get stone crab if it’s available in large, jumbo, or colossal.

Maverick Top Gun comes out 12/22 so probably stream that as well.

Honeybaked ham and some useless filler.

I have a rib roast dry aging now. It will be 15 days in on Christmas. We'll cut it into steaks that will go over Jealous Devil lump charcoal. My wife and daughter will take care of the sides.

My wife and kids typically fall asleep early on Christmas Eve so a couple years ago I started a new tradition

I have some edibles
Then a Psuedosue or two
Then I watch The Ice Harvest
I eat a shit ton of raw cookie dough while I watch

It’s magical

I have no idea. We do a very casual pot luck with the in-laws on Christmas Day and they decided they wanted to do Mexican this year. My husband said 3boysmom makes great chicken enchiladas so they put me down for that.
