Well tradionally we have always had roast Pork, Turkey (uuuk) is another new Americanism. As well as Roast pork we would have a goose or a duck. When I was young, not that long ago lol, chicken was an expensive luxury. So in answer to your question Yorkshire Pud on Christmas? No that was assigned to sunday roast with roast beef. Oh and spanish onion soaked in vinegar mmmmmmmm

I had to think if we do or not..... and have voted yes.... but I don't think we do, not because you traditionally have them with beef, but purely because there's no room on the plate!

We don't always have turkey either, could be goose!

My OH's dad is originally from Leeds, so they eat YP's with everything, but I personally hate them, it's just like eating batter and I can't stand batter on anything, so when they do get them, I normally buy the Aunt Bessies frozen one's just for them.

But definitely no to having them with Turkey at Christmas.

No tradition of Yorkshire puds in our family although I'd be happy to have one.

Hubby has a yorkshire with his beef and I usually have one with my nut roast. No turkey in this house.

We have our Christmas dinner after Christmas because we go to my OH's mum's house.

For the past two years I've made rib of beef, brussells with chestnuts and pancetta, maple roast parsnips, roasties and stuffing.

Mmmmmm I'm looking forward to it all of a sudden

Definitely WITH yorkshires (home made). Love em. But it is difficult to fit them on the plate.
We have them all the time, with stew, savoury mince and toad in the hole.
