Hey everyone!

For those with the pleasure (or pain?) of being in charge of the cooking at Christmas it can be a stressful time with the risk of under cooked birds and burnt spuds always lurking. flushed

 

This thread is where you can share your best kept Christmas cooking secrets! Have a hack to make sure the Turkey stays moist and succulent? Know any techniques for super crispy roast potatoes or have a recipe for perfect gravy? Then give a Christmas gift to the community and let us know below! cool

Yes, and I also don't give a damn what people do to cook them. They could be cooked with bacon, mushrooms or cheese and other stuff, it wouldn't matter.
