What main course is tradition for your family on Christmas day? :D  Mine is Ham and Roast.  Also Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone here. I hope your holidays are filled with happiness and prosperity. :)

Something else...namely Chinese. Depending on how we're feeling, sometimes we'll go to a buffet (which tend to be SUPER crowded) or we'll order take-out. Pretty sure we're doing take-out this year. Last year we went to one of my favorite Chinese buffets and they were packed to the gills with people. The upside to that is everything was fresh from all of the replenishing they had to do.  ;)

Growing up it was generally Ham (which I despise) because we did Turkey on Thanksgiving. When it came time to eat on Christmas, I would generally just fill up on a bunch of sides or if I was lucky my mom would make me something like a chicken breast. I never could fathom my disdain for ham as I am quite fond of pork  products overall including pulled/shoulder, tenderloin, chops, side and back ribs as well as bacon (strip bacon, not that "Canadian" nonsense).  I'm guessing it must be a texture issue.  :P

It's almost always a glazed ham, with scalloped potatoes, and hawaiian rolls.  It's always good so I certainly look forward to it since we only have ham like this maybe twice a year.

Typically either Ham or Turkey, sometimes both. This year it was Ham.

For Christmas I had Tamales and Carne Asada and the good part is that both of these taste even better a few days later  ;D

Usually turkey or ham, but this year my uncle made fantastic roast beef. The sides change every year, with the exception of hawaiian rolls. Those are too good to not include.
