41. The Festive Feast Part 1 - Starters, Mains & Mixed feelings about Mariah

A Girl, a Gay & a Thermo

Show Notes

We're launching our Christmas trilogy with the dishes that make the biggest entrance: starters and mains! Think cheesy showstoppers, seafood sensations, and roasts that'll have your guests pretending they're not going back for thirds. The thermo is working overtime and Mariah is both our festive queen and our seasonal stress trigger. Join us as we lean into the sparkle, embrace the chaos and get Christmas dinner sorted - one delicious dish at a time.

THE BACHELOR’S HANDBAG Australia’s most reliable dinner date is getting the episode it deserves. But first… obviously we spend a completely reasonable 12 minutes reviewing Kylie’s Grand Final performance before remembering this is allegedly a food podcast. Then we get down to chook business: Coles vs Woolies — who’s got the superior bird? What are we actually DOING with a cooked chook? Viral chicken recipes worth trying Chicken lasagne Peking chook pancakes French onion chicken pie Nagi’s Buffalo Chicken Dip — so rich you may want 000 on standby Because there is SO much more to the humble supermarket chook than sandwiches and sad Tuesday-night salad.
