Don't really have a tradition of cooking any special/thematic "Christmas foods", 
but last year I was celebrating with my family and decided to make Burgundian beef stew (aka Boef Bourguignon) because I accidentally saw some dude on youtube making it and it looked very yummy. Everyone liked it so I'm gonna make it this year too. It tastes very nice and has a rich and deep flavour which makes it feel more fancy than it really is. It also scales really well as if you want to make more of it you just get a bigger pot and throw more stuff into it, you don't really have to do much additional chopping or frying or whatever else. This also means it's quite easy to make, though time consuming (it took me 1 day to make the stock and 1 day to make the rest of the dish). I recommend everyone try it sometime 
Besides that my mom also has a tradition of buying rabbit or goose for New Year's when they go for cheaper which she turns into a roast, so I imagine this year it will be no different. Rabbit in white wine and rosemary is very nice but goose (
) is genuinely one of the best meats there is and the best tasting poultry for sure.
So what about you, any specific dishes you're planning on making for the table?

I have already made like 6lbs of butter worth of cookies, and have like 4 lbs more to make.
I look forward to the Christmas ravioli each year.
Which recipe did you use? That looks like a great use of that chuck roast in my freezer.
