I'm somewhere where Christmas dinner isn't a thing, so I'm like Pavlov's dog right now, living vicariously through these photos.

Aaron's is probably the slight favourite so far, though hard to judge when it's without gravy. I could probably eat all of them, mind.

Even if there is something deeply disturbing (and slightly sinister) about Hexx's dry, lonely corn.

Aaron’s is the best.


So many soggy lovers here though

Ads is the best for me. It would have what I would have had at my nans if we could have gone. Looks delicious.

I didnt take a photo of ours. We had turkey and a pick and mix of our favourite foods this year. After a gooseberry fool year why not eh?

Isn't Christmas Day KFC a huge thing in Japan?

Close between Aaron and Ad. Hard to judge without the gravy on both.

Mine would have been the clear winner if it weren't for the fact it's been ate.

My vote goes to Aaron - a stupendous first time effort!

To be completely transparent I have cooked many a roast in the past, but never a Christmas dinner and this is probably the biggest effort I have ever made.

Appareciate the vote chaps. I assure you it was definitely the best of everyone's.

Whilst not traditional at all, the beef short rib looks immense. :datass:

Hate gravy

Lovely crisp crunchy stuff and then you make it all soggy.

Worst is Yorkshire puds with gravy. Ew


Not a fan of butter either then?

I think this is the only one that genuinely beats mine.

I can admit when I've been outclassed. Well played.

Real respects Real.
