The turkey may be the culinary centerpiece for Thanksgiving, but Christmas entree options are broader. A Dickensian-style Christmas goose? Ham, with all its trimmings? A nicely steamed crustacean?


Judging from recipe searches on Yahoo!, Americans have been slicing into prime rib: That roast beef slab has led prep searches — that is, lookups on Dec. 24 — in the past three years. In 2012, people have been seeking tips for "prime rib au jus recipe," "boneless prime rib recipes, "lawry's prime rib recipe" and "prime rib rub recipe."


Ham seems to have had a bit of a renaissance, at least among procrastinators: Those queries have tied with prime rib, with searches for "brown sugar ham glaze recipe" (+72%), "honey baked ham glaze recipe (+584%), "christmas ham recipes" (+12%), and "slow cooker hame recipes" (+46%). Other last-minute recipe searches checked on how-tos for turkey, lasagna, meatloaf, chicken, pork tenderloin, shrimp, salmon, and Cornish game hen.
