Do Yorkshire puddings belong on a Christmas dinner?

It's (almost) Christmaaaaas! :claus:

But you can forget about the Grinch, the humble Yorkshire pudding seems to be growing into a new sort of festive anti-hero.

Some people (like me) love them on a Christmas dinner, while others absolutely hate them.

Which side are you on? Let's settle the debate :smile:

Christmas can be a difficult time for many people. If you need support- you are not alone- please reach out.

I love Yorkshire Puddings, though they've got to be homemade, in my humble opinion :smile:

. There's something about them that just makes them so good for a roast, no one could ever convince me otherwise haha :biggrin:

It's a hard yes from me too, but also agree the homemade Yorkshire pud is a must! :u:

We have this debate every year and every year the yes' slap the no's across the face and then we go eat Yorkshire puddings with out Christmas Dinner.

Small or large?

No, too many other special Christmas trimmings going on for it to be worth doing Yorkshire puddings!

My older sister would def agree they belong there! I'm a bit undecided. I'll of course eat them if they're there, but for me, they're not a 'must' per se :ninja:

Haha easy mistake to make, I don't like the sound of Christmas puddings with Christmas dinner either!

@Vic Vinegar : yeah I wouldn't mind/miss them if they weren't on my Christmas dinner plate. For me Christmas dinner isn't the same as a roast (partly because our Christmas dinner is half Sri Lankan, half British!). So while it has to be there for my roasts, it doesn't HAVE to be there for my Xmas dinnner :biggrin:
