A Martha Stewart Christmas: The Main Event
When it comes to the big day, Martha serves up a Christmas turkey that's as tender as it is flavorful. Her secret? Brining the bird overnight in a mixture of salt, sugar, and aromatic spices. But that's just the beginning, folks. She surrounds her turkey with an herb-stuffed roast pork and a garlic and herb-crusted beef tenderloin, creating a towering meat masterpiece that'll have your guests oohing and aahing.

But before we get to the main event, we need to start with something to wet our whistles and tantalize our taste buds. Martha's got a whole host of appetizers and cocktails that'll do just that.
For starters, how about some smoked salmon blinis with caviar and creme fraiche? Or perhaps some parmesan and herb gougeres? And for the drinks? Her pomegranate martini and mulled wine are sure to get the party started.
