I've ordered a duck as I've had enough of turkey for a while.
So what's your meat of choice this Christmas?

Grrrrr, going to be at the chop dodging in-laws for Christmas day this year so no meat for me

Might have to smuggle some in. Hopefully they'll be some turkey left when I get to my parents on Boxing day.

Sorry Swiss, I assumed chicken was too 'every day'. Not knocking the old bird as she's a staple of my diet

You will also need a Method Statement and Risk Assessment

A 'hard helmet' would be needed/appreciated I would think.

I'd rather have a chicken, but the GF is insisting on a dry, tasteless turkey.

At least my Mum's dogs will eat heartily.

'Ham joint' or the whole joint for you then. Sounds great!

Yes, I know what you mean re: dry and tasteless turkey.
prepared and cooked well it can be OK though and it still makes great Boxing Day sarnies

I'm going to cook turkey this weekend for one of my wimmins before she goes home for the holiday.

She wants a roast - I've never attempted that before - but I'm tempted to do a turket escalope bundle as it only takes 30 mins! More time for boozing!
