According to a Mashed survey, the holiday dish that reigns supreme is honey-glazed ham, with 36.05% of respondents selecting this sweet and salty food as their favorite. While honey baked ham has a reputation for being an Easter food, anyone who traditionally eats this dish knows it hits the spot on a frosty winter night. Classic and comforting, ham is so popular it's even starting to move in on turkey's Thanksgiving territory (via Wide Open Eats).
The runner-up was prime rib, receiving slightly over ¼ of the love with 25.29% of the votes. One reason folks may be opting for ham over the more luxurious prime rib could be the drastic price difference. According to The Coupon Project, ham prices tend to linger around $1 to $1.25 per pound, while Choice-grade prime rib prices jump to $13 per pound, with the premium cuts costing about $17 per pound, as noted by Cooks Illustrated. Not only is ham more affordable, but if you purchase it spiral-cut, it's also incredibly easy to serve. This lends the dish beautifully towards buffet-style meals or large family dinners (via New York Times).
Garlic mashed potatoes came in third place, with 16.31% of the votes, and roast chicken rolled into fourth place at 10.6%. The bottom three? Christmas goose (with 5.06%), cocktail meatballs (with 3.92%), and Brussel sprout casserole (with only 2.77% of votes). If you are hosting a holiday feast, if might be wise to skip those dishes this year unless you really love leftovers.
