Buried it!!! :D
 
My dinner (well, before it was all dished out...).

Sage & Onion, Pork & Chestnut and Venison & Red onion stuffings, sausages with and without bacon, roast goose and roast turkey, glazed carrots, parsnips in honey & black pepper, home made gravy, cranberry and apple sauces, red cabbage and sprouts with chestnuts and bacon.

To follow, M&S White Chocolate bombe, and Hestons Xmas Pud with brandy cream!

well, here it is, my sister did not disappoint

succulent local turkey, honey and mustard glazed gammon. Garlic and rosemary roast potatoes, two types of sage and onion stuffing homemade, one with thyme and one with sausagemeat, sweet potato, brocoli, homegrown cabbage, roasted parsnips and locally sourced pigs in blankets hidden by the mountain of other food.

all topped off with homemade gravy flavoured with the skin of the bird.

I think I feel sick now I have just looked at this thread as I have stuffed myself rotten all day. Here's hoping I will not eat a bean tomorrow but I know for sure that it will be 'normal service resumed' as soon as I get out of bed.

Why do we do it?
 
This is us tucking into turkey, pork, two stuffings, crackling, sprouts, carrots, roast potatos followed by christmas pudding with brandy butter.

Duck marinaded in Amaretto in a maraschino cherry sauce, various stuffings, roasties, roasted parsnips and asparagus. Not brilliant. Me Christmas pudding was much better.

I got too hammered, burnt the roast carrots and wolfed down the entire meal before I could get the camera out. The bottles of prosecco and Asahi didn't help.So a successful crimbo all round :LOL:

Sat down ready to eat a late Dinner (about 5pm).

I didn't take a photo of the actual dinner plate this year, so here's one from the same recipe from last year.

Earl Grey infused tenderloin of pork, Smoke emulsion, roast potatoes, carrot and vanilla puree and a saute of savoy cabbage and Worcestershire sauce.

Much more fun to cook than the christmas dinner for 14 I did last weekend
 
cheers mate

cooking for 139 people on christmas day isnt the greatest though lol

Hope you were paid well enough! I suspect you are a Cook or Chef by profession?
