Being from the deep south, that would be noon lunch for the rest of you guys. I don't do the seafood gumbo for traditional Christmas, but I know people who do. Myself...we're having a pork roast well stuffed with green onions and garlic and a clear corn starch gravy.....

Melanie is going to cook a huge beef roast in the crock pot starting late tonight, and simmer it in Garlic sauce until late in the morning. Early tomorrow she will start a big Lasagna. We get tired of the Turkey deal, so she does traditional and Italian. We'll eat on all of it for a week or more! Bill T.

Not actually sure what we are having for Christmas dinner. All the in-laws were supposed to be here, but that has been pushed off a couple days. We are going in to Mother-in-law's apartment for a meal with everyone there. Once everyone gets here the official meal will be meatballs, greenbean hotdish, cheesy hashbrowns, rice pudding, home made bread, and home made ice cream ... we actually made the ice cream and party mix today and started on it ... they snooze they lose!

Smoked Turkey breast, and Steaks in my Smoker, and I'll cook some mashed potatoes and stuffing, with Gravy, Wined Cranberries, and Cherry Pie with Hagen Daas.

My Stepdad passed on December 22nd last year, so my mom and I are both pretty bummed. Neither of us feel up to the hassel of doing the traditional feast/party/family get toghther. We both went to Carrabas for Christmas Eve. The cool thing about this place (better than average for a chain, but that's it food wise. Its just sort of the the neighborhood restaraunt.) is that folks remembered. The meal was comped and folks payed their respects, as it was something of a family tradition to to show up two Thursdays a month for a family dinner. I honestly don't remember what I ate. What I do remember is the wait staff, manager, and nodding acquaitences paying their respects. A very nice and unexpected Christmas gift.

I butchered 4 hogs this year and I took one of the hams and seasoned it with mesquite jerky seasoning mix. When I cooked it with brown sugar and some more seasoning. Last hour of cooking I put some honey, pineapple (crushed) and a bottle of glaze. Was great.

Did you every cook anything?

Ham Taters, carrots and boiled onoins, left overs are forming a pea soup as we type. I've cooked turkeys before but places I've worked used to give us a 18-20 pounder .
Man can only eat just so much turkey ;D
I CAN cook, I've even done stuff like Chicken Cordon Bleu. I just don't like to, by the time it's done I'm sick of it and go microwave something.
