It served eight greedy carnivores. I had to have a little lay down after paying for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you needed a lay down after paying for it 😧 I just bought a small piece of 0.75kg for £55 😆 My beef rib above cost about the same 🤭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmm243 Posted December 26, 2023 Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 I cooked for 15 yesterday. Had a large ham (file seems to be too big, won'twt me up load), beef roast on the bine, leg of lamb, roasites, carrots, parsnips and sprouts with bacon. Dessert was the choice of 3 trifles, a black forest gateaux, lemon cheese cake or apple crumble or a bit of everything. Had cheese but at the end of dinner no one was fit for it. All tidied up and in bed by 10.30. so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enfieldspares Posted December 26, 2023 Report Share Posted December 26, 2023 I had an Anglo-Nigerian Christmas meal. If such a thing ever existed! Roast pheasant, carrots, potatoes, brussels sprouts at 1.30pm and baked tilapia fish with a side salad lettuce, grated carrot, tomatoes, sliced hard boiled egg at 6pm.
