Turkey Beef or Ham for Xmas Day ... or All 3
Feedback
i love a traditional turkey dinner but hubby hates turkey so it depends if we are at home or going to daughters if we go to daughters she cooks a turkey crown for me and her and a joint of beef for Daz and /Ben my son in law x
Me and dad have have roast turkey with all the trimmings on Christmas day. I cook the Christmas dinner. Then I cook gammon and have it cold on boxing. Then any meat left over I freeze. Then I can make soups pies quiche. I love cooking Christmas dinner. Also my dogs get a Christmas dinner as well.
my 2 get one as well ... plus their xmas clothes on x and their pressies under tree lol xx
I cook a large turkey crown with all the trimmings on Christmas Day and we have the leftover turkey and gammon with bubble and squeak/mash on Boxing day. A couple of years ago I dared to suggest a change to goose or beef and it was like a mutiny!!!

We have turkey and ham. There is only two of us and the dog, but we buy a small ham joint and a turkey crown. The rest is then used over the next few days in sandwiches and for dinner.
yea think we will do that year ill have turkey n daz be beef n ham x i could eat turkey everyday i love it xx
Would go with ham instead, but not the sliced up ham.
This "ham" which in English it has no official title:
Some companies have tried to go with these names: Jamón, Serrano, Ham, Jamón Ibérico (actual Spanish name of it) and Smoked Ham. 'Jamón' is the Spanish name, 'Presunto' is the Portuguese name of this delicious meat.
It's kinda funny they can't stick to one and go with it, or an original creative title.
By the way, 'Ibérico' (Iberian) implies Iberian countries they are Portugal, Spain, Andorra (a micro-country between Spain and France) and a tiny chunk of France.
my cus married a spaniard n the ham he used to get was enormous n hanging up in kitchen x really didnt like the thought of it not being in fridge but he knew what he was doing hes a chef n a very good one at that x
I have heard that big joints of ham are supposed to hang rather than be put in the fridge. But I've never had one that big! My husband makes the Christmas dinner and it is always amazing! He always says it isn't as good as his mums, but she is a professional chef, so she has an unfair advantage!
I’ll have it all! No point in just trying to pick one - you’ve got all day to eat, as there’s nothing else to do, so might as well stuff yourself silly! We a
so have belly pork too
We’re only a small family but we always have at least 2 meats because we can’t decide! It’s always turkey & something else!
