Christmas DInner Ideas.

Country Ham?...Deer hind quarter...cooked slowly on the grill, wrap in tin foil.. add carrots,potatoes,garlic and butter to keep it moist. Light one end of the grill put meat on the other end. Give it a bout 3 or 4 hrs. Debone and serve just like you would a roast.

We've done beef tenderloin or prime rib from time to time in my family. Obviously there are tons of ways you could consider seasoning or cooking. That's fun for something most families don't do that is different than the typical turkey or ham.

My family has a tradition were we try a something completely different year to year. The idea is to hopefully turn you on to new food you might not otherwise be exposed too. We do multiple courses pre-dinner cocktail, app, salad, soup, main course, desert, and cordial. Some themes we have done include Cajun(turducken), Hawaiian(pineapple ham), German(sour brauten), Greek(rack of lamb), Sanish(paella), and many others I can't think of. It is great for the kids and we have come across some real keeper recipes along the way.

DO tell what is Burgoo? Anything with a name like that's gotta be good!

tough to beat prime rib slow roasted or tenderloin and lobsters or tails. oh and dont forget to make room for cousin eddie

Been awhile since Ive had actual burgoo. At deer camp we make "something" that seems to be across between burgoo and brunswick stew.
Same basic ingridents as Burgoo just not as thick. Chicken,deer,beef,pork and on occasion squirrel or rabbit meat.Start with boiling water add stewed tomatos,tomato juice,some cut up potatos,corn,onions,lima beans and whatever else we can find. Brown the meat and add it. Cook and stir until it thickens a bbit ( no potatos can be found at this point). Some call it stew, some call it soup, some just same call me when its ready.
Beer cheese, a cracker and horseradish now thats good!
Or how about pork loin slow cooked in a crock pot?

Appetizer, my families favorite, Little wienies each wrapped with a third strip of bacon, then covered with brown sugar, sit overnight and bake. mmmmmm fat wrapped in fat, coated in sugar. Served on a tooth pick. Most my family recipies will eventually land you in a cardiac care unit. I will provide an exact recipe if anyone is interested.
