Meat For Christmas Dinner

[mrs_overall]

What are you cooking for Christmas dinner?
We've just had a meander around the supermarket and as none of us like turkey I decided we are having gammon this year.
Mr O is veggie and he is having one of those fake turkey Quorn rolls

Ah, I see the question mark now - no I'm having breast of pheasant roasted alongside the turkey crown. I have just prepared them this afternoon.

[shoota]

Thought you were testing me then ;-)

[The Builder]

Don't forget to get the shot out of it :o)))

[shoota]

Breast of phasianus colchicus sounds a bit poncey......

[mrs_overall]

I love game but those small, round teeth breaking crunchy bits put me off

[shoota]

I love a game gal....

[mrs_overall]

ooh shoota... I'm a game gal. I play scrabble ;-)

[shoota]

OK - As long as your nails aren't too long......

[mrs_overall]

they are just long enough

Good to see you Mrs O, pork for us ! I don't really like turkey and OH prefers pork . Hope you have a good one ! xx

I will be starting with beetroot cured salmon to be followed by black treacle cured fillet of beef.

Hope you are on the road to being cured Mrs O. x

Thanks for your good wishes

Eccles, your menu sounds so good I may just abandon the family and come to yours

Roast pork, a corn fed chicken stuffed with a couple of quarters of lemon and orange, honey and whole grain mustard roast parsnips and carrots, roast sprouts with lardon and roast potatoes, redcurrant sauce and cranberry sauce, all washed down with a couple of glasses of Gran reserva Rioja, thats mine.

Be sure to bring your marigolds in case of dishwasher overload.....
