christmas meal - we are not having turkey! anyone else

[Willmafrockfit]

i left it to DM to decide as a large turkey is expensive and nobody likes it much anyway - we prefer chicken
so we have chicken
my ds, who is cooking, is disappointed.
this is the first year apart from the 15 vegetarian years when i havent had turkey

what meat are you having?

Beef welly for us!

Don’t like Turkey
We are having chicken, lamb and salmon

We’re having an Indian take away - did it last year and it was fab, totally took the stress out of the whole thing.

Turkey, ham and beef. Christmas Dinner is DPs favourite meal and things about Christmas so he goes overboard.

I'm not cooking it though so I don't mind.😆

Turkey and a rib of beef here 😋

We are having Beef Wellington which my sister in law is cooking.

Can't wait x

Sausages. Think I might have a go at sausage gravy too...

Beef as usual

Chicken and a ham.
None of us enjoy Turkey

Slow roasted leg of lamb in a marinade (marinated for 24 hours) of oil, garlic, chilli, salt and pepper and then covered and cooked for 6 hours in red wine and stock.

Pork belly. I haven’t had turkey in decades.

Having an Indian takeaway, so will have chicken.

Turkey and beef 😋

We have a pork joint with crackling for the kids

Dh & I will be having a beef wellington (which I need to start making)

I also have a £4 turkey (reduced from £60) which I may cook tomorrow.

I also have a gammon joint…

For 4 people I have a lot of food 😂

Smoked, marinated tofu with shitake mushrooms, mushroom gravy, spice apple red cabbage, and Yorkshire puds. The kids are having gammon and sausages with that too. Probably roast potatoes too.

Gammon here. Tastier and easier to cook. We much prefer it, apart from fil who has the cheek to moan he didn’t get turkey and has never ever invited me for dinner at his.

We're having fish pie

Porchetta, it’s the first time in 46 years that it’s not sodding turkey. I only like the dark meat but couldn’t get a turkey thigh.
DH will moan…..🙄

We never have turkey - don't like it. Today we'll be having a pork chop with roasties for him and a grilled salmon with roasties for me!

The plan was always for a bit today but then i found a nice looking plant bars concoction , so i was looking forward to that but it has what in it and guest is gluten free... so i look forward to gorging on that tomorrow perhaps!

Just DH and me, so beef and lamb today.

I make a Christmas day pizza every year goes down well

Chicken

We're at the PIL's for dinner but I don't think we're having turkey. I believe it's pork

Beef here today!
