I also find a whole Brussel is far too large, and insist on nanny cutting it in half first.UEAAddick said:

That shiny pig in blanket at 12 o'clock reminds me of a girl I met at uni. Like fucking cigar butts they were...Numbers said:

I’m a veg first man as a bit of nutritional admin, followed by the beef, yorkshires & cheesy leeks to finish up.Braziliance said:Pelling1993 said:

These two look very good. Lots of colours, plenty of variety. If I was being picky, I'd say a bigger plate could have made it better, but the fullness makes it look good.Athletico Charlton said:
Just curious about your action plans approaching it. What area of the plate did you both attack first, what was the time spent consuming?
If people could add time spent consuming their plate I'd really appreciate it, gives us a bit of a backstory.Went back for turkey with the turkey gravy as opposed to the beef gravy, because I am a disgracefully fat bastard.1 -

I am a gravy fiend. If I remembered I would have taken a photo before making it quite so swimming!!SporadicAddick said:
Fair play. If I’m honest, a bit too much gravy.cantersaddick said:Forgot to take a snap until I'd started eating so presentations a bit all over the place.
Cheesed leeks with a breadcrumb gratin top. Mashed swede, carrots brocoli, sprouts. Shit tonne of parsnips and roasties. Turkey with cranberry, lamb with mint sauce, stuffing and pigs in blankets.
Gravy was the best I've ever made.
2nd snap has the Yorkshire added!
negative points for the hideous purple plate. Last time I saw something like that it had paint on in primary school and I was wearing my dads old shirt back to front.
As for the plates you'll have to take it up with the mother in law. She's very proud of her multi coloured le cruset plates but to be honest they're complete crap and too fat to fit properly in the dishwasher.1 -
Turkey and beef rib.Post horseradish jizz and cranberry splat……but pre major gravy deluge.Handsome.
NB - The black thing is roasted purple carrot. 😄3 -
Looks like a fucking cuttlefish in the middle of the plateLeuth said:My mum's been following Delia's method for decades and it hasn't failed. Would say this year's was particularly great. Have largely hidden the roasties but I hope what's visible conveys their not-anaemic status

That's a butter knife. You not trusted with real cutlery?Solidgone said:Absolutely smashed it this year (after last year’s disaster forgetting to switch the oven on). Decided to skip pigs in blankets and stuffing this year as respect for those vegetarians and vegans missing out (yes I know I’m a caring kind of guy). Merry Christmas y’all.

Next year I’ll buy the turkey.
Look what my mother-in-law brought by mistake, as she’d forgotten her glasses when she went shopping.
So we had meatballs instead.

Less than an hour to reveal what Floridians put on a Christmas Day plate and I am reliably informed it ain’t Turkey. SOME of these shares are making me homesick and envious! Merry Christmas fellow Addicks! 🎄1

What’s with the multiple meats some go for? Pick a roast and stick with it 🙂
Or are you secret Toby Carvery devotees ?3 -
Definately my favourite, all items easily identifiable. Personally no carrots for me, but other than that a winner. Table for two on Sunday about 1:30 please.cafc4life said:

Brussel sprouts with pancetta and chestnuts, red cabbage with port and red onion, two types of stuffing, bread sauce, and the usual…0 -
And the blankets look like someone’s tried to pull them off the pigs. They should be centred a lot better.1
Pan fried venison haunch, medium rare, in a wine and redcurrant reduction, with the usual vegetables. The wine is a rather lovely 2018 Bordeaux.
