Xmas Dinner

What we having?

Sister in law (modest handful) and her fella split, in-laws in France, so it's just the five of us at home. If I'm honest, I can't really be arsed; it's an early Sunday dinner, and will have all the fannying around without the extra gifts and booze.

 

Anyway, kids want turkey. They didn't have mash last year, and tbf I didn't miss it; however they insist. The wife usually asks for gammon, and that's my usual contribution to a family meal. I'm looking forward to making gravy, semifredo etc in advance. Go forth good folk of WWays; inspire me with your festive fayre

Bread sauce or mushy peas?

Bread sauce. Mushy peas belong with fish and chips and pie and gravy.

You're wrong. Yorkshire puddings shouldn't be served with any kind of roast dinner with the exception of roast beef

Excellent with any Sunday dinner type meal.

A bug un is heavenly with sausages/roast meat and gravy in.

Is that because you don't like them, or struggle to make them?

The former. They're not difficult to make.

Tbh, I don't like them, pancakes, batter etc etc

If I had to choose it would be all over. Sure I've eaten worse.

Really? Massive homemade crisp yorkies to mop up delicious homemade gravy.

I get its normally served with beef but I don't get why.

I said it wouldn't be long before someone admitted to using brown sauce on their xmas dinner.  Even that's outdone by feckin salad cream though.

I watched a documentary on Qanon last night.  It was actually less disturbing than this thread.

Bread sauce is a weird one. Can’t make my mind up on it 

Its lovely and its the most traditional british christmas sauce.

Can't believe some folks have never heard of it.

Oh actually, given the mushy pea/brown sauce axis I can.

He's a question, you are round at a new paramour's house for christmas dinner with the inlaws. Suddenly you are ppresented with dinner that features said mushy peas, whilst you take this in father pproduces a bottle of ketchup and brown sauce whilst mother brings in a tray a steaming hot whist pies.

Do you

a) eat it like a good guest

b) whap your member out, dip it in the mushy pies, cover it in ketchup and proceed to slap mother round the face with your lathered up bellend shouting 'even your daughter isn't this filthy, you peasant.'

Right. Not Christmas Dinner but Christmas Eve. Traditionally, we have a family party. Obviously it’s been a bit sporadic recently and this year it’s on the 18th. (Assuming plan B doesn’t scupper it, I play by the rules)

On the menu as usual this beauty with…………..

Mushy Peas.

Merry Christmas one and all.

Nothing wrong with that, we usually have it on Boxing Day though, with loads of Piccalilli 

We had yank visitors over summer.

the young lad loves fish and chips.

and has a round of white bread with it.

But

1. Puts the fish on the bread

2. Has brown sauce with it
