Couple years ago we started getting a beef tenderloin and cutting our own filets. Butter and rosemary seared steak and potatoes.

Always cook for the holidays and my wife just has to have her spiral sliced ham with baked sweet potatoes and some type casserole ( green bean or eggplant/shrimp/cheese).
I'll bake some herb infused rolls and that is sufficient for us.

We do the same food we do for Thanksgiving.
Turkey, Ham, Sweet Peas, Mashed Potatos, gumbo, dirty rice, rice dressing, seafood cornbread stuffin yams and enough sweets to give a small Ethiopian village the sugar diabetes.

Inherited my wife’s family tradition of “homemade” pizza on Christmas Day. I buy the raw dough from our favorite pizza place and make the sauce. Fun to experiment and my daughter loves making them. Will probably do a prime rib on Christmas Eve with my sister and her family.

I am doing a ham on Christmas Eve and a roast on Christmas Day.

We go to my grandparents for lunch (glad they’re still with us) and we eat gumbo. Open gifts and listen to the family backhand favor My sisters kids more than mine (makes no sense, my kids are more well behaved. But the wild ones get more attention and praise.)
Once we get home from the fiasco. We can relax. Start drinking. Can’t drink at my grandparents as they are super Baptist. (I am too but we still drink. God still loves me.)
And I make a crawfish etouffee.
That’s honestly the best part of Christmas to me. Is the evening when we’re home as a family. The kids are playing with their gifts and the wife and I are in the kitchen cutting loose while I cook.
I’ll miss these days.

Not directly answering your question but our Christmas meal is typically shrimp and grits and a whole tenderloin

Our routine is set in stone.
Monkey bread and pigs in a blanket for pre-presents/opening presents.
Then after presents, a giant breakfast. That usually ends up being at 10 or 11.
Then a repeat of Thanksgiving dinner late afternoon/early evening.

Rib roast Christmas Eve with asparagus, twice baked potatoes, some fun aged cheese as an app. From scratch cinnamon rolls Christmas morning. Shrimp and corn soup Christmas lunch.

Same as every year, chicken and sausage gumbo, potato sald and various other sides plus all the sweets you could imagine.

Being a military family we started a tradition of going to a Chinese buffet on the years we are away from home.
So, we're going to a Chinese buffet this Christmas.

Very large pot of chicken, squirrel and andouille gumbo along with fried turkey, baked ham and couple different types of dressing and casserole dishes. Pecan pralines, divinity, coconut cake, pecan, pumpkin or sweet potato pies. Waaaaayyyy too much for the dozen or so people that filter through on Xmas day.
