sidcow Posted December 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) So what is the minimum acceptance number of Pigs in Blankets and other musings.

Popular Post It's Your Round Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 Six is the minimum. Unless I’ve secretly been eating them from the buffet warmer already. Then I’ll accept four. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 3 is a starting point for pigs in blankets, up to 5 on the plate, however there should be an additional plate of pigs in blankets to dip into through the night. My wife seems to have gone full deluded and is going to pick up a fresh turkey this year, so we are looking at about 48 hours before Christmas day, max and she hasnt put an order in with a butcher. We may be eating chicken nuggets this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2022 The best thing you can do for Christmas dinner is move away from Turkey. And I don't mean as a veggie. Even if you eat meat, remove the shackles of having to have the shittest of all the meats and move to something that actually tastes nice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayls Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Just a couple of Pigs in blankets for me. I prefer sausage meat instead though so tend to whack a load of that onto the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranberry is a really odd taste for me, always leaves my mouth feeling dry. Can't be doing with them, though I have recently discovered dried like raisins, this doesn't happen 4 minutes ago, Seat68 said: 3 is a starting point for pigs in blankets, up to 5 on the plate, This 4 minutes ago, Seat68 said: however there should be an additional plate of pigs in blankets to dip into through the night.

bickster Posted December 14, 2022 Moderator Share Posted December 14, 2022 Sprouts, microwaved. This is definitely the best way to cook sprouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post It's Your Round Posted December 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2022 I love sprouts, and eat them with most Sunday dinners through winter. Usually end up with about 10-15 of them because nobody else likes them, although I’m convinced the reason for that is people disliked them as children and haven’t tried them again since. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follyfoot Posted December 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2022 We have had a turkey crown cooked in bacon last few years and it has been joyous roast potatoes cooked in beef, dripping, rather than goose fat as well. Oodles of bread sauce. At least 4 dogs dicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, plus the way they're cooked drastically changes their taste. I love them myself and I had some sprouts somewhere else and they were vile!

Follyfoot Posted December 14, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2022 brought myself one of these little beauties for Christmas carvings as well. Will probably end up taking a few fingers off. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
