Common in Oz, I gather.

And why wouldn't you? They hsve the climate for it, and their seasons are the wrong way 'round so for them it's mid-summer.

Good Point! I just can't see BBQ for Christmas here in Canada. Although now that I've said that I am sure some Canadian will say they BBQ every Christmas. 😉

Deep fried turkey with peanut oil is a favorite here in Texas but is a real pain for the designated chef.

I enjoy the traditional Turkey Dinner with all the fixings. 🙂

EDIT: I don't believe I have ever eaten deep fried turkey with peanut oil, bet that is very good.

EDIT2: I was told they have deep friend Turkey over in Newfoundland on New Years Eve...not sure if it is done in peanut oil.

I spent 12 winters in Canada.
BBQ is not the first thing to come to mind.

It's the middle of stinking hot summer in the southern hemisphere. Hot cocoa and bonfire, no thanks.
