Budget Beating Christmas Dinner For Under £20!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ธ.ค. 2022
- Christmas dinner is by far the biggest feast of the year, and also the most costly. So I've come up with this little number that not only tastes awesome, it also comes in at under £20 to feed a family of 4! That's a fiver a head! if you have a few more people coming over, you can scale it up a notch by adding an extra chicken and throw in a few extra veggies, and you're sorted. Also, just because it's cheap, it doesn't mean i've been tight with the amount. We've got everything from a butter basted roast chicken, classic pigs in blankets, roast potatoes, yorkshire puds, veggies, gravy, the whole shebang. So you can still enjoy a massive feast, but without the eye watering cost.

"You don't have to justify yourself to any f***er".
Let this be the message you take away from Adam's videos. Do your best with what you have folks. Have a great Christmas. Thanks as always, Adam.
Too right mate. You have a good one
Absolute Gordon bless ya Adam. Real bloke giving us real recipes in real home conditions. As a new foodie whos found cooking in his 30s absolutely love your vids, I live and cook on a budget but you 100% keep it real. Thank you mate and Merry Christmas x
Bless you mate, kind words. Have a nice Christmas fella
Yes he hasn't washed hands in years! LOL
Last year my old mother said this is my last year to make Christmas dinner (she is 84 after all) Then the wine was flowing I said something silly “why don’t you all come to our house next year” So with two days to go and I have 12 coming round 🤔🤔🤔🤔
12! Haha I feel for you mate. I'd say get some of them helping 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt my mams advice was make the starter and puddings as simple as possible then make twice as many roast potatoes and pigs in blankets as you were thinking and you’ll be fine I’m sure this is the first Christmas (apart from 2020 for the plague) that she hasn’t made Christmas dinner since 1963 (the year she married my late father)
All blessings to you Adam for a good New Year. Great tips in this one ! Thank you.
Thank you Adam, for sharing all the wonderful recipes, and for helping too keep all your followers cheerful. Hope youa followers have a lovely Christmas.

Top top meal there Adam... thanks for the vlogs.. merry Christmas..💕🎄x
Thank you Rachel. Merry Christmas to you 😚
Merry Christmas Adam and Mogs, ( I agree with you, sprouts are the devils veg ) Love the sweary words, and you being 2 sheets to the wind, dont ever change haha xx
Merry Christmas Wendy love. Haha, crap aren't they. I mean if Sprouts were so good people would eat them all year round wouldn't they 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt They are just awful, dont see the point in them haha xx
I really like them , and have them with all roasts. Different strokes for different folks 🤣
Great video. Wow you made compound butter, stuffing balls, parsnip & carrots, roasted potatoes, gravy, pigs in a blanket, Yorkshire pudding, peas, roast chicken, and bum nuggets AKA brussel sprouts all in one night for 20 quid while being half pissed yourself, knowing that you'll have to wait to film the B roll the following day... YOU ARE THE MAN and we are not worthy! But I did notice in the B roll that there were only 10 pigs in a blanket. Come on Adam, be honest, you had more than one 🤣. I'm glad you did the parsnips & carrots, and I've convinced my wife to let me make it to add to her Christmas dinner (her favorite meal of the year). It must be that I've earned her trust because of all the other recipes of yours I've cooked that she's loved. Hope you have a truly wonderful Christmas!
Haha I did pinch a couple to be fair. I also forgot to put the Yorkshire puddings in the b roll as well 🤣🎅
Merry Christmas Adam! Loved that mid week video. It was a very nice surprise 😁
Merry Christmas mate
This video was recommended to me after I watched a series of budget Christmas dinner videos made by fellow boring Americans, none of them enjoying a drink while cooking. I was watching those videos - things like Dollar General Christmas meals for 6 people for under 20 bucks! - because I was fascinated that anyone could pull that off and frankly pissed off that I spend a fortune on holiday meals only to hear crap like, "I cut gluten out of my diet" or "I am vegan. This week." F*** off you pack of ingrates! Next time you are getting a suspicious-looking "sausage" roll and a box of crap instant mashed potatoes from the local 99 cent store. Then I find this video and was laughing out loud. You are hilarious. And your food looks great. So thank you. You have a new fan.
Happy Christmas and a happy new year 🎉 epic video as always
Merry Christmas Victor!
Fantastic video! Really gotta try this
Cheers mate
Excellent video Adam. Thank you for all your videos this past year….I’ve enjoyed cooking your recipients and my lot have enjoyed eating them. Happy Christmas along with a great New Year…. 👍⛄️🎅🎁🎉🍻
Haha its been a pleasure mate, but I'm waiting for the day I get a message saying you made something of mine and it was shite 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt 🤣🤣….actually Adam everything been good…no complaints from my lot either…..have a good one mate…👍
This was grate to watch the uncal derek bit lol 😆🇦🇺👍
Your preparation is spot on ,chicken is what i have but id have to try the pigs in blankets and sprouts your way .
Fantastic!!!!!!! I reckon you've got a winning formula there Adam! EffingAndJeffingCheffing
Merry Christmas matey

Aww thank you Rachel! 😚

Merry Christmas 🎉 My Nan used to buy a Capon ❤ tasty and plenty of it . We loved Capon 👍🏻 never knew the difference when we were young 😂 So glad you are doing an alternative to Turkey 😃
Turkey has been consigned to the bin from now on lol. Merry Christmas mate have a good one 🎄
Keep up the great work Adam! 👍
Thank you Peter. Hope you had A great Christmas 🎄
Love the language,the way I see it is if you don't like quality uk words then don't watch the fucking video,no problem at all.💥🎅👍👌🎄
It's real life, and there will be plenty more words like that when I have to do it all again on the big day 🤣
Love you..😂😭🤣 You are the best Adam. 🤐

Thank you babes. Yeah, it was a long night! 🤣
Great video Adam! Once again, Merry Christmas! Cheers! 🤗
Merry Christmas Shirley 😚
I visit the UK occasionally, perhaps we can cook together one night
@@Adam_Garratt Hi again Adam. Question; I have tried to find your FB and Instagram with no luck doing so. Can you direct me?
@@shirleyfrederickson4794 hiya, if you go into the description of this video. Right at the bottom are the links to my socials. X
@@Adam_Garratt oh silly
Me! Of course! My bad as I rarely read the descriptions. I just watch and make and sometimes comment lol!
Merry Christmas to you too Adam. Live alone and no family (parents) now so going round to a friend's place on Christmas Day. No idea what he may be cooking so will do my own meal on Boxing Day. Sliced turkey (or maybe chicken), parsnips, peas, a few sprouts, roast potatoes, piggies in duvets (la-di-da, posher than blankets 😄), Yorkshire puds. All from the freezer mainly courtesy of M&S and Tesco. 😋
Enjoy your day matey 🎅
Have a great Christmas Adam! If your nearby, pop in for a coffee and cake! I am alone as well!:D (Fat chance, i am in the Netherlands after all!)
Haha yeah it's a bit far for me, but a merry Christmas to you Leyena x
Wish you a merry xmas.
Thank you for all your amazing videos which i often use to improve my english knowledges.
From my cozy little health resort

Merry Christmas Reinhard. 🎅
Only found your channel a short while ago but enjoying it a lot just catching up now
Welcome aboard mate. We are a close bunch here
Who doesn't love Adam but a pissed,swearing Adam is hilarious. Top guy.
He's a knobhead isn't he 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt but a funny knobhead. All looked lush. 😛
Loving the tipsy turvy Adam! I sometimes feel that way during holiday meals with wine or spirits. I think I am in love with you. Your amazing. Keep up the good work. 3rd kitty moved into our home. Spay and neuter be responsible
Merry Christmas Nonna!
Merry Christmas xx
Merry Christmas Kathleen x
Happy Christmas dude
Merry Christmas to you too mate
Christmas Dinner - the meal you put the most effort into, and all too often get the most disappointment out of - bah humbug 😆
I am with you on Turkey - the Brussel sprout of a bird, which all too many claim to like, but most are at best indifferent.
Far better results with the leftovers in a pie or a curry.
Money saving tip - admittedly not much, but a spatchcocked chicken cooks more quickly and uses less fuel.
Anyway, I hope that your Christmas is better than you expect, and I wish you all the best for 2023.
The last turkey I cooked I went all out on. Brined for 24 hours, compound butter, herbs the lot. Still wasn't as good as an ordinary chicken 🤣. Anyway a merry Christmas to you and yours Neil
@Adam Garratt I can only remember once or twice having been really impressed with the turkey, and one of those was a turkey crown.
I think the main problem is that the breast meat cooks so much more quickly than the legs, and a little bacon simply isn't enough (perhaps a little on your chicken would have stopped the scorching)
About 15 years ago when I could get hold of turkey legs for 50p (shudder to think what they would be now!) I would roast them on a Sunday - many times more successful than you could hope to expect for the price - but at the time, that was all we could afford.
Have a good one Adam and look forward to what you have in store for us in 2023. Thank you for sharing your recipes and banter this year x
Merry Christmas matey. 🎅
You are absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂🌹👍🐨
Gold
Adam, thanks for all the fab videos and fun this year (and all the years). You're the best. Happy Christmas, mate!
Thank you and a merry Christmas to you too pal
Adam - you are a joy to watch!!! On many levels you personified many of my cooking experiences - your attitude and speech - your liquid refreshment - mashing your butter with your hands - etc. etc. very enjoyable and entertaining - maybe I DO like myself better than I thought!!!
as an aside, seriously now folks, I really admire your altruistic intentions of trying to help people on a budget etc. You are a fine person.
Love yourself mate, because lord knows i love you all! Have a good one pal, merry Christmas 🎅
@@Adam_Garratt lovely response, Adam - I thank you!!!
This is absolutely fantastic channel. I like the budget cooking and the waffle (it is impossible to decide what I like more....)
Adam, can you do a vegan dish? You arw fantastic with various cuta of meat but I'd love to hear your commenta when making some crazy vegan stuff :D
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love this video, Ho Ho Ho Merry Xmas bud
Happy birthday have a great night x
He He He Heeeee... Mery Christmas Adam!
or... Merry Christmas too! lol
Merry Christmas mate
Hi Adam, many thanks for all the wonderful videos you have done for us all, not only this year, but from when your began your TH-cam channel. 🙏🏻
I would like to wish you all the very best for Christmas and New Year, and to all your friends and family. 🎅🏻🎄🍾
Big thank you for all your support as well over the years. A merry Christmas to you too mate 🎄
Thanks!
Thank you mate. Also thank you for the super thanks donation! Very kind of you sir
I always like sweetcorn with an xmas dinner.
Looks good what time is dinner? Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas from Canada
Merry Christmas my friend. Love you Canadians! Matty Matheson is one of my favourite chefs. Beautiful country too
Enjoy your Christmas Adam.
Can't stand sprouts cooked, or even if they've been left to something hot on a plate. But give me fresh raw sprouts, with a little salt and they are so nice. They have a peppery tang, like radish.
I bet they'd be good in a slaw as well. But yeah, minging things they are 🤣
Hi bit late to the party.
We have chicken (a frozen joint) turkey is dry 😂
Thanks so much for the video x
Interesting.
bless you, it's good to let go
I was a hot mess that day haha
That's brilliant mate! Instead of draining the gravy, you could whizz it up in the blender if you have one.
Absolutely mate. Cheers!
Hi Adam, just wondering what knives you use. Great video always have a great Christmas 🎄
These were from TK Maxx a few years ago. I think I paid £50 for them, but they were reduced from £300
ADAM! Leaving the USA and headed to Devon for a New Year Celebration with friends. Several good cooks. Come see us.
Lovely part of the country is Devon. Make sure to grab some clotted cream and scones, will not disappoint.
This was hard work, love the video, great Christmas feast on a budget ❤
Merry Christmas to you
It was a challenge lol. Merry Christmas Jacques
Brussels sprouts are awesome!
Sprouts... Shred then and fry in a tablespoon butter add chopped walnuts and sultanas. They have a cabbage flavour if you do it like this.
Ha ha - loved this! Watching in April - far be it for me to comment on your cooking but I think the chicken should have been on a lower oven shelf. Says she who stresses about Christmas Dinner - sometimes it's a blessing to be working Christmas Day. Totally agree about not caring too much after a few drinks!
I was knackered after this. It's stressful enough cooking a full Xmas dinner, but filming it as well is next level stress fest 🤣🤣😅
@@Adam_Garratt Oh yes, there is that too! You do them so well, lots of humour x
It's not like you to swear!! But I fkn love it!!! Great vid
Haha I was running out of time to edit them all out so thought f**k it I'll leave them in 🤣
I hate Turkey. They're bad enough when they're alive and even worse when they're dead. Anyway, delish as usual. Have a lovely Christmas Adam, and stay well😊😊😋
I worked in a turkey farm for a couple of weeks one Christmas when I was 16. Needless to say those turkeys can fight 🤣
merry Christmas Adam
Merry Christmas mate
I buy the frozen Turkey joints from Iceland about £16. with everything else all for about £30.
Try the Paxo with cranberry
Feel your pain bro we have a single oven it isn't easy mate. All the best bud
Hi, Adam!
Hello mate
I love you!
Your best video ever...lol you just made my Christmas dinner seem a whole lot less traumatic and cheap..love the way you did the sprouts 20 quid is a fantastic price and any leftover like chicken veg stuffing and gravy will get put into a Christmas pie for boxing day..how about that for stretching it a bit further..thank you Adam , have a happy Christmas and hug Mogs for me
It's an absolute honour Jane, happy to help. Have a nice Christmas hun x
