We usually have steamed shrimp on Christmas Eve since it's fast and fun. One of my daughters is planning a Christmas brunch and hasn't told me yet what to bring :o
TFK- funny enough, I bought the same thing you did, and from the same store.
Nope. Contrary to popular belief that’s a big Hanukkah tree in Rockefeller center
How are you doing yours? I'm not 100% but I think I'm going to rub with herbs and butter, cook indirect on the kamado until 125ish, then raise the temp and finish raised direct for a few minutes to help the crust. But not 100% yet
Since I'm doing twice I might do it different ways. The smaller pieces will be sous vide. It's for the two people who want theirs medium well lol
ZING!
The little lady has good taste. We're doing the same here, a good ole southern Christmas. Rubbing the butt tonight, then twice smoked for extra burnt ends & 2 beer can chickens.
Deploy stretchy sweat pants...
Ummmmm....that sounds really good
Standing rib roast with smashed potatoes, sautéed broccolini and artisan bread. Cherry and French Silk pies for dessert. Bread and pies are made from scratch...yum!
That all sounds good. Haven't decided on my end. Probably depends on who ends up wearing the apron (my dad, my brother, or me).
A salad on Eve as it's just the pup an I.
Christmas day I'll be fixin a chilled salmon salad w/California walnuts as an appetizer. Then BBQ'd pork chops, rice pilaf w/California smokehouse almonds, scalloped potatoes, steamed asparagus and corn bread for the kids. For desert I'll have made a bach of ice cream sandwiches (peppermint & Maplenut ice cream with seven layer cookies)
Then after they've all left gonna take the pup for a long stroll through the Cosumnes River nature preserve here on the Delta. We're bout an hour North of the Milton's here in Sacramento. NorCal rocks!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!! Dawgs rule!
Man, that's a different way to go and not my style, but it sounds good and it's an impressive menu (are you a chef or a food writer?).
I really like the personal color you provided as well. Merry Christmas Dallas!
Got the Turkey breast and Apple wood ready to smoke tomorrow. Have cook from frozen turkey breast in the freezer in case I UF up the smoking 🤣
Thx, not a chef but I take cooking classes too try an expand my knowledge on the stove.
There's a full and varied plethora of food styles out here. It's one of the great things about this place. Now if I wasn't a 5+ hr flight from Athens it'd be perfect... lol
A very Merry Christmas too you an yours!!
Luckily I’m doing a few vegetable sides, but I’m cooking brunch as well. I don’t know why it can be so stressful being forced to be with family, but I’m going to drink a lot of mimosas while I cook.
I'm eating at WCDawg's house this Christmas. If I walk in to the smell of honey BBQ'd human flesh then I'm getting TF out of there and calling the mods ASAP
We are having a Feast of the Seven Fishes for Christmas Eve. Shrimp, scallops, clams, oysters, blue crab, conch and mahi sauteed in garlic, onion olive oil and served over zuchinni spirals and angel hair pasta. Christmas will be roast horesradish encrusted beef tenderloin with garlic potatoes and green bean casserole.
Check out the mad Max turkey method. I've used several times and it's the only way I'll smoke one in the future
