Help please with Christmas cooking

how do I fit the yorkshire pudding cooking in with the rest?! Needs a higher temp and do not open the oven door.
If I cook the rest before won't it all be cold by time puds are done?

I rarely do big meals!

What else are you cooking in the oven.

The meat needs to be out 20 plus minutes before anyway to rest


I do my pigs in blankest and stuffing in the oven at the same time as the puds.

Turkey ( Pork / beef) will still be hot for ages after removing from oven , just cover in foil and drape a t towel over it ......mine 'stand' for 30 mins , so its out with the bird , temp sky high , in with Roast pots , wait 10 mins?? in with the puds and sausages . Your only problem is warming the plates .

Too much to do Xmas day to worry about genuine yorkshire puds , settle for Aunt Bessie. One of the VERY few frozen dishes that grace my xmas table. ( the other is frozen peas)

Thank you!

I am only cooking a breast joint, not whole bird. I wasn't sure about how long it would stay hot - but foil and tea towel sounds a good idea. :T

I cooked a very large turkey crown on Saturday and it stayed hot for an hour and a half wrapped in foil before I came to carve it - it was still HOT inside when I carved it, as in too hot to touch with bare hands.
