Traditional Christmas Eve Dinners

[Pressure-Less]

I wanted to know what you or your family has for a Christmas Eve dinner. Not Christmas Day but tonight. Our family has a South Texas style dinner. It consists of Texas tamales, I usually get courtesey of my mother, and chili. Sometimes we may added enchiladas but not very often. So, let me know what everyone else enjoys for their dinner on Christmas Eve.:smile:

Ty, weren't you living in or near Halstead or Hesston before? I can't remember. Anyway, Merry Christmas to a fellow Kansan! Oh, and Happy Birthday on top of that!

Let's see.. last night we attempted to go to Taco Bell but they were closed, so detoured to Taco Burrito King. Big pile of nachos for me.

That is correct; Hesston. We have since moved back "home" and are purchasing a family business

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Haha, they were the only place smart enough to be open! We were driving around looking for a place to eat, seeing everything was closed, saw the TBK store was lit up and pulled a U-turn!

My "extended" family of SloGN & BarnesGN have been celebrating Christmas Eve with us for about 7 yrs now. Yesterday ESinger & his son and another turbo Regal owner joined us for a traditional Christmas roast turkey lunch with all the trimmings. Most of the time we have the normal turkey dinner, but depending on weather, we've also grilled steaks out. It just wouldn't be the holidays without having a bunch of turbo Regals parked out front

Normally it's pot luck, the whole family gets together and brings stuff, typical fair is pies/cakes/cookies, ham and cheese trays with crackers, veggie trays, just basic finger fair.

Last night since granny is nursing home bound and the extended family no longer gets together my sis and her kids and husband and my mom all came here and we had basically finger foods, and some wine, margaritas, etc, and we just had a good time. Got my sis all pissed though, got my bro in law quite tipsy, she left about 9 and my wife drove him home around 11 along with their oldest who stayed and played Rockband on our Xbox 360 (we let our kid open it early so we could all sit around and play). All in all a good fun evening was had by all, and I pissed my sister off, just like old times yeah
