Can Jews eat roast dinner

Answer 1

Yes, with the following restrictions. The roast beef needs to be purchased from a kosher butcher, and have the blood removed by someone who knows the proper salting process (or it can be done by the butcher). Also, it needs to be cooked in kosher vessels.

The pudding, like the beef, needs to be prepared with kosher ingredients in a kosher vessel.

Yorkshire pudding is usually prepared with dairy ingredients; and the laws of kosher food prohibit eating meat dishes together with dairy, so the pudding should be eaten one-half hour or more before the meat and cannot have any gravy from the roast beef.

Answer 2

First, for the purposes of this question, I am narrowing the analysis to Jews who keep kosher, e.g. follow the dietary laws, and also ignoring any personal Allergies.

As concerns Sunday Roast, it depends on what meat is used for the main course. If it is pork, then the dish is certainly not kosher. Assuming that the roast is chicken, turkey, steak, or lamb, the meat must be a kosher cut, not prepared with any dairy, and prepared with koshered utensils (utensils that have been properly washed and/or have never had contacted with dairy). Additionally, Yorkshire Pudding, an important constituent of Sunday Roast is usually made with dairy, so it would either have to be made dairy-free or excised.

Answer 3

Vegetables fall under the category of 'pareve' which means they are neutral. There is no issue combining meat with vegetables according to the laws of kashrut.

Answer 4

As gammon is pork, religiously observant Jews will not eat it.

Answer 5

Roast beef is kosher.

Answer 6
