my mam always used to do us pork and stuffing cobs with a trifle for after, both myself, sister and brother have followed this tradition on.... this year though I'm out at a friends so instead of having the cobs tonight we are going to do them boxing day instead.

We used to have a tradition of having a take away - either curry or Chinese. However, this year we (husband, son and me) are going out for a slap up lunch at a lovely country pub. Therefore, dinner won't be required - I might, however, have a slice of the Tunis cake we've made.0

Baked ham, jacket potatoes, corn on the cob, HM coleslaw and BBQ sauce here:-)
Then some ham gets used on eggs Benedict Xmas morning and the rest cold along with turkey on Boxing Day:-)0 -
we usually have a take away but we had one at the weekend, so today will be just a picky dinner...sausage rolls, sandwiches etc.
Boxing day we will be having ribs, pulled pork, buffalo wings and sides.0 -
We don't have any real Christmas Eve meal traditions.
We are having chilli con carne later, mainly because it's my favourite!
However, I do like to have sausage rolls on Christmas Eve evening, so they'll be in the oven laterEarly retired - 18th December 2014
