Day 8: Roast Beast

Every community has their own way to celebrate the winter holiday feast. It is not a religious, or cultural thing, it is usually something that relates to the community itself. Some communities focus on the cooked goose, some focus on glazed ham, and many more focus on takeout Chinese food for the holiday season. A very special group of people at the foot of Mount Crumpet, they love to indulge in roast beast as the highlight of their Christmas morning.

Roast beast is assumed to be the classic dish roast beef. You can search the internets for a good roast beast recipe, and a few non cooking related sites will give you a "recipe", but to be honest we all know it is roast beef. Roast beef is awesome. The ceremony of having it carved. The au jus. The horseradish sauce. It is all magnificent. 

No matter who is in our community, and no matter what we call the special dish, our culinary traditions are sacred during the holiday season. Roast beast is sacred to the Who's, and it is delicious to boot. The only thing more sacred than roast beast for Christmas dinner is the one who gets to carve it. Only a creature who's heart can grow two sizes is worthy of carving the sacred roast beast. Are you that worthy?
