What are the cooks/chefs in the group planning?
My hands are tied for Thanksgiving. Several expect turkey (meh for me, no matter how I fix it…) and a spiral ham (good, but still uninspiring…). It’s all about the sides for me and I can kick ass in that department. I can epically stuff things
.
For Christmas, I have the freedom to do what I want (after capitulating on Thanksgiving
) so I’m doing braised beef short ribs in a red wine reduction with carrots, onions and leaks. Tested the recipe a few weeks ago to wild applause. Since there’s significant hands-off time while it’s in the oven, I’m going to attempt some homemade yeast rolls. I hate baking. I suck at baking. But, I love bread. Gotta try - it’s a stretch goal
