Ah, my favorite time of year. In most years I follow the old European tradition of cooking a Christmas goose. I already have one in the freezer ready to go.

Choice of alcohol? Yes

Pork pie? I don't rightly know what that is (I bet I'd like it, though). I make the staple of the Missouri diet, pork steaks. Most non-midwestern Americans aren't familiar with pork steaks so I doubt you Englishmen are.

We erect an artificial tree after Thanksgiving and, time permitting, put up a real tree about a week before Christmas. My wife is a professional harpist so this time of year is very intense for her. She has about 2-3 nights off between Thanksgiving and Christmas day without a concert, rehearsal, or gig. Ergo, time isn't always permitting.

So tell us what you mean by pork steak?

Don't you have gooseberry pie too?

Pork pie, can't beat it. Like Chazz, I'm also intrigued by the Missouri pork steaks.

My Dad liked to have Mid-Western goose for Christmas, but we didn't have a freezer, so it wasn't authentic.
