Traditional New Year

[FurCoat]

I am fixing a traditional Southern New Years meal for tomorrow and having the family over. I am serving spiral ham, black-eyed peas on rice, collard greens with bacon drippings of course, yeast rolls, fried corn bread and sweet iced tea. Cooking the peas ahead of time with a ham bone and letting it sit overnight. In my opinion they are better the next day. So does anyone else have a personal or regional New Years meal planned?

Pretty much the same as you.

Midwesterners both by birth, we follow the Southern tradition as far as the black eyed peas and collards go. We have some bubbly wine for a toast, and will likely watch the ball drop in NYC at midnight, since NYC was where my wife spent her adult career in journalism. Here in North Carolina, they have various non-ball drops. In the capital, they drop a big bronze colored acorn, in honor of the City of Oaks, and for a while, a small city had an opossum drop, but that was discouraged. Possums are sometimes hunted and eaten, but suspending one in the air seemed mean. I guess it just played dead for the occasion. I nominate an outsized moon pie or can of Cherrywine soda.

Oh , it is still very common, the problem is that one oughta have mushrooms at home, pickled or otherwise, potato salads are gaining popularity lately, but well-made mushroom salad is hard to beat, and no doubt this white lightening'Koskenkorva*is a staple and it ain't going to lose 'it nationwide popularity any time soon, Wishing You a Happy and prosperous New Year to the great State of TX

I'm a little jealous of your big meal. I'm just making pot roast in the crock pot. Still in the camper with limited supplies for another week. Happy New Year!

I'll be having the traditional Scottish Ne'er day meal; Scotch broth; followed by steak pie, mashed tatties and peas; with a cloutie dumpling to finish.

Only my wife and I are at home, as a precaution against covid infections. Five shrimp for each of us, a consommé with Jerez, A pair of beef cutlets. And a bottle of Ribera del Duero. A simple dinner. This New Year's Eve will not be very traditional. But we are grateful to God to receive these foods. Amén. God bless you all and your families on this special night. And of course to those loved ones who are no longer with us, but we are with them always. ?

I've got a seven quart crock pot working some chili. Gotta have something for Sunday. My favorite in the crock pot is Mississippi pot roast.

Add my Mother in law’s deviled eggs and you’ve described our New Year’s meal to a T.

My wife's aunt is bringing the deviled eggs...lol. I forgot to add Pecan pie, not my favorite, but everyone else enjoys it.

Here in Scotland it’s common to have steak pie, tatties and veg such as peas and carrots.
Happy smokes
