Game Plan

Our Christmas Dinner This year will be...

Turkey of course! With the turkey we will be making a yummy thick butter based marinade. Within this butter we will have lemon juice and lemon zest, orange zest, minced garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and cayenne pepper. We will then rub this all over the Turkey the night before inside the cavity, under the skin and all over the outside. We will then stuff the cavity with the left over lemons peels, garlic, whole peeled onions and rosemary sprigs. We will then put it in the fridge till Christmas morning and bake it at 356 degrees for 2 1/2 to 3 hours for a 12 pound turkey. We then are going to take out everything from its cavity and make gravy out of it along with the drippings. Yum!!!

Ham! we will be making a very yummy ham. We are going to boil the ham first for three hours with plenty of aromatics such as carrot, onions and celery. We are then going to Score it and place cloves on each square that we scored. We are going to cut fresh pineapple and place it around the ham and bake it at 375 degrees F for about an hour. We are going to baste it with the glaze every 15 minutes.
