Just wondering what people tend to have? Not had the traditional for years, since in my teens ( blimey that's a long time). Usually get a curry, but fancy back to basics this year.

    I spend Boxing Day at my parents and it’s always leftover turkey with chips and beans

    Bubble, cold meat, pickles. 
    Better than Xmas day dinner in my book.

    Buffet style lunch, cold meats etc, but definitely with mash potato.
    Much prefer Boxing day dinner to Christmas day dinner.

    The enemy was suggesting boiled, I insisted on mash.

    I didn't want to allude to this. Mums coming around, not sure she'd be too impressed. She'd probably rather a Happy Meal.

    I probably prefer it to xmas dinner tbh. Cold ham & turkey, pigs in blankets, salad and all the pickles. 

    Boxing Day lunch will be cold ham & turkey in a banquette......whilst parked up in Wimbledon. Perfect.

    @up_the_valley I'm after two seats please on the east side of your table. Donation to the Upbeats if there's gravy.

    Cold meats (turkey, beef & ham), mashed potatoes and pickles (piccalilli, Branston and pickled onions).

    Very traditional.

    Much prefer Boxing day dinner to Christmas day dinner.
    Add cheeses, crusty bread along with gherkins, picked onions etc. If you have a costco near you then get the gherkins from there as there immense! 

    Torn between the 2 because I do love a roast but the boxing day dinner is quality..happy as a pig in shit for those 2 days really 😂

    Usually a party day for friends and family in our house (altho maybe not this year...again..)...so something easy like a chilli that people can help themselves to from the pot when they want it. Cold meats etc from Xmas Day for anyone left standing at the end of the night...

    Exactly the same as Christmas day again. Then will steal loads of it to take home to munch throughout the night watching the Ashes
