Merry Crimbo to one and all!! Quick question though, where can you get a decent bit of ham and turkey that isn't like rubber?? Last Crimbo we bought a large turkey breast and you could've played basketball with it... ....this Crimbo we bought a large bit of ham and it's the same consistency?!?! Help please?? I'm fed up with meat that makes your jaws bounce apart!!

Happy New Year to one and all!

your over cooking mate

I went to a chinese restaurant and had some duck, it was awful..

I said to the chef your duck is rubbery.

He said:

FANKU MATE !

would love to help you out with your meat situation
But i'm on probation !!!

good luck

No I'm not...the meat has that consistency/texture before I've cooked it and it doesn't go away with cooking (nor does it get any worse). Thanks for the vote of confidence re: my cooking skills!

Thanks for that one!! I'll add it to ever-growing repetoire of 'Dad jokes'!!

we bought a cooked ham from Coles, no complaints here

Ok - I got mine from Woolies but it was definitely a gelatinous sort of consistency and not like the ham I'd had in the UK where it used to flake off when you cut it??

cant be bad though...

when all you bitch about is rubbery ham !!!

We ended up buying gammon, expensive but delicious.

I bought a cheapy frozen turkey breast from Safeway and it was gorgeous!!! not at all dry and a really lovely turkey taste

a lot of fuss over some compressed pig ???

maybe go out west and shoot your own!

i know i would but i'm on probation.

the ham here is vile, just learnt to live without it I did try to find a gammon joint to cook myself before xmas but they looked at me like i'd got 2 heads ..which is quite ironic in itself.

The only place I could find a gammon was in a british shop

Oh yes, and the turkey of course!!
