Whattya Makin' For Christmas Dinner?

smokin5 · 12-23-2009, 07:45 PM

I just finished cooking up many pounds of sausage (hot and sweet), grating pounds of cheese (Parmesan and Romano), & cooking lots of spinach in advance preparation of the Christmas lasagna we are making for Christmas. We figured we'd go with the "red, green & white" motif this year.
With 6 guests, we figured we'd make dinner for 12 or more. Not bad for a heathen, huh?

So....whattya making for Christmas dinner?

Enough paste to make Fat Bastard from Austin Powers to cry with a red sauce made with lamb, Nuff' said.

Fried Turkey with a homemade Wild Turkey Cajun Injection and Tony Chachere's Cajun rub

Prime rib on the grill - chacoal grill that is.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!!

My son would probably disown me if I didn't roast up a great big bird with all the fixins. Turkey dinner has been his favourite meal since he was 3 (he is 9 now) for him its a toss up between what is better presents or the feast.

potatoe salad + sausages (one of the cristmas traditions that i dislike)

I'm about ready to toss a turkey into the ol' brine pot.

htown · 12-24-2009, 05:36 AM

Roast turkey and fixings. For dessert will be sweet potato pie and pecan pie.

Ham and Boston Baked Beans. I just stuck a quiche in the oven for the vegetarian sister. There will be lots of frosty Buds for dessert.
Merry Chirstmas!

Just threw the 16 pound ham in the oven...and it's just me and wife!!! Kids might be stoppig by, but we love our ham sandwhiches.

Well, Christmas dinner is the province of the In-laws. But our family tradition for Christmas Eve is Chinese food. Last night I made, Hot & Sour Soup, Chicken "rangoons" (mine are not all cream cheese!), Scallion pancakes and General Gau's chicken.
My 13 year old daughter made chocolate fondue for dessert.

We have potluck dinner parties 4 or 5 times a year. Tonight I’m making roast turkey, fresh baked Italian bread, mashed potatoes with roast garlic and green peppercorn gravy.

68TriShield · 12-25-2009, 10:09 AM

A whole Beef Tenderloin.Here are a couple money shots...

I am in CO with Family for Christmas so that means I am in charge of most of the cooking, tonight we are having a rosemary crusted prime rib, some decadent (read very fatty and delicious) mashed potatoes, asparagus, a cheese platter for an appetizer, and plenty of wine

Ranger_B · 12-25-2009, 10:57 AM

just finished my lunch of salmon and couscous. Flipped the steak in the marinade.
