We have never done Christmas in the RV, but we have done many, many Thanksgivings in the RV.
We do a small, whole turkey in a 7 qt. crockpot (yummy, but does fall apart), twice baked potatoes done in the oven or occasionally a crock pot (I forgot a potato masher and had to use a fork to mash them and that took a while), a green bean casserole in another crockpot, cranberry relish, rolls (baked or warmed on the grill), grilled asparagus and a dessert that I purchased in a supermarket.
These were some of the best meals we have had in our RV or at home.
One year, we were at the beach for Thanksgiving with all of our immediate family (4 of us), plus my nephew, who was about 14 at the time. He discovered that he loved going crabbing and on Thanksgiving morning, he went out early and came back with 18 blue crabs. We had crabs for dinner and they were wonderful. We had crab cakes the next day after I taught him how to pick them. It was a very memorable week for us all.
