We’re getting close to deciding.  Linda wants prime rib.  We have two in the freezer but they’re from her brother’s feedlot and are rather low quality.  I don’t want to serve one of them to guests.  The discussion continues.

I am pretty sure that I'll be doing prime rib this year.

There are just the two of us. Bent is going to RD in a few days and will be looking at ribeye steaks -- or maybe a bone-in ribeye roast that can have the ribs cut off for beef ribs and then some steaks cut.  Baked potato with butter and sour cream, candied carrots -- and I am happy!!!

  My son and I were discussing Christmas dinner.  He would like a less traditional Christmas dinner.  One bird that came up was the goose.  Show wondering if anyone will be cooking a goose this year for Christmas.

Did that one year (not for Christmas, just for the experience).  Used Gordon Ramsay's recipe.  It was a very expensive bird with very little meat so per pound price was really high and we weren't that wowed.  If you go this route, I would love to see what you do with it.  And goose was a very traditional dinner for Christmas in Victorian England.

I bought 5 dozen homemade tamales from a lady and her Mother, I have known the ladies son for a few years and tried them several times and they are outstanding. $25.00 a dozen. Now to convince my wife👀👀.
Red and green but even though they say the green are mild, they are pretty dang zippy.

Eating tamales after midnight Mass was a huge tradition in the Mexican community in L.A.  Thousands and thousands were sold in the days leading up to Dec 24

Probably 25+ years since I have made goose for Christmas. About the only thing I can remember is I did them in the oven in a pan with a rack. They were just store bought geese, I have not seen them in a while in the stores. I did mention about getting  few ducks and doing them, that did not go well here.

Man this exercise reminds me how much I hate plastic wrap.
3 dozen wrapped and 1 more to go.
1 of them is 2/3 consumed.
They are outstanding but they said the green were “mild”, uh? Boy I wouldn’t want to try medium! 🚀

Rib roast for us again this year.
Even better are the cheese steaks we make from the left overs.
