Go on, hit me with your favourites.

Just picked up a 6kg joint. All to be cooked & done on Christmas Eve.

Some of it may be left over for the Christmas meal 😉

I quite like taking it out 20mins before the end. lightly scoring the surface and drizzling over honey and mustard glaze

Ah, the perennial favourite of honey / mustard etc -that may well be the one as yet 😉

Black treacle.... mmm. as with all kitchen cupboards I believe the remains of a tin are lurking....

Cola / cinnamon - tell me more - is this a 'soak overnight' then pour off, add water and boil as normal approach or is it soak and + cook it in it approach?

Ta

EDIT - sorted - just found out that it is cooked in the coke - gotta give that a go 🙂
Off to buy multipack of cake 🙂

Equal parts whiskey and maple syrup. Boil down till its very thick. Score skin. Cloves. Glaze. Roast. Keep glazing and roasting till glaze is used up. Trust me, flipping delicious.
