Christmas day we normally go to my grandmothers who has stuffed ham and honey baked ham. Everyone brings a dish but it is an open door thing so you come when you feel like it.
Christmas Eve is when I do our families special dinner. That menu is Prime Rib, yorkshire pudding, roasted root veggies, mac & cheese, green beans, etc...
Nothing like a nice big juicy Prime Rib

So now that we are gearing up for the Christmas Feasts, what are the "must-haves" for your table? Do you do a meal similar to Thanksgiving or something different? Do you do a big family breakfast as well?
Looking for new and different ideas.
That sounds awesome, Lovin!!! Never thought about doing Prime Rib; was gonna do a ham but now I think I've changed my mind.
prime rib for us too..lucky me I do my moms on christmas eve, SO's moms on christmas day..so I get two
rare and bleedy at my mom's...frankly overcooked at SO's..but still tasty I suppose
I made blue cheese yorkshire puddings one year, I was disapointed, I put a ton in there, still couldn't taste it.
Mom's
Prime rib, king crab legs, five cheese pasta (expensive to make but soo freakin good I could cry), rolls, and a veggie of some kind..
SO's
Prime rib, oysters, ham/turkey breast, potatoes, veggies, mac and cheese
I freakin LOVE christmas
They can be expensive but normally a week or so before Christmas they go on sale at Safeway for $4.99 or so a pound.
IF you are going to do a prime rib I have the best cooking method & recipe. It comes out PERFECTLY every time! Rare in the middle and medium rare on the ends.
If you want it I will post it.

What are you waiting for!!! Post it!!!
1 7 -8 lb roast at room temperature
1 stick of soft butter
1T kosher salt
1T fresh cracked black pepper
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F
Rub roast w/ butter then season liberally w/ salt and pepper.
Place the oven rack on the second lowest position.
Place the roast in a pan large enough to hold it comfortably, bone-side down
Roast the meat for 50 minutes
Without removing the meat from the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F and roast for another 45 minutes
Finally, increase the temperature to 450 degrees F and roast for 20 minutes until the internal temperature of the meat is 125 degrees F. (Be sure the thermometer is exactly in the center of the roast.)
The total cooking time will be between 1 1/2 and 1 3/4 hours.
we always do the paula deen cook it, then turn oven off and let it sit deal. Turns out great. sometimes a little less rare than I would like, but I am kind of weird about my beef, I eat it raw pretty much. Should be perfect for most folks.

If you mean prepared and served, no place around here meets my approval. If you happen to be in Charlottesville VA, stop at the Aberdeen. There's also one down in Williamsburg. They make a great prime rib.
Order one from Nick's. :shrug:Where's a good place around here to get a decent prime rib?
