    Well, I can say the prime rib came out delicious. However, due to the 2" diameter cylinder of fat that ran the length of the meat (think: meat twinkie) right down the middle, I chose against photographing it. It was not the best looking cut of meat I've ever cooked, but it was really good.

    Hells yes!    Jose on point too!!!  Merry Christmas everyone.  
    Instead of hot lobster we made it this afternoon and chilled it for a few hours.  Got to admit that I like it better that way.

    Mmmm, everything looks and sounds delicious!  Christmas Eve is usually appies in our house.  We started with a charcuterie board and crudités this afternoon.  Went out for a couple hours to deliver baked goods to friends and neighbours and then drove around looking a xmas light displays.  Came home, had an eggnog and then had the second course of more charcuterie, veg and fresh seafood including: king crab, local Vancouver Island Pacific shrimp, which are tiny, hand-peeled deliciousness. We also had both maple candied and peppered smoked salmon nuggets. Finished the evening with homemade butter tarts and mandarin oranges.





    Forgot to take pix of the seafood.  Was too excited for the crab.  Managed to remember as I was getting down to the last bites lol.

    Christmas Day is all about the turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots and cream corn.

    Just some turkey cutlets, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, and rolls with Roadhouse butter for us here this Christmas.  Keeping it low key.
    Cookies and candy though, plenty of that going on.

    My mom gave me the family heirloom cast iron skillet!  Woot! 
    It was originally my Great Grandmother's, and now it's mine to make perfect juicy burgers with a nice crust of Lawry's seasoned salt.
    I got an immersion cooker for Christmas too, so I look forward to doing some pork chops to a perfect 140 and then getting that sear you can only get with cast iron.
