THE CHRISTMAS HAM DEBACLE! | Puppy updates | Kids make pudding

[@RachelSharp-u4x]

Absolutely creased at James’ rant at the end and Jude coming in with the ‘’maybe just less maple syrup” classic 😂

[@dcdx8966]

The Ham rant was possibly the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in the vlogs and me and my wife have been watching from the start. How he hid the absolute rage but sort of teased it. ‘A hatchet job on ol’ buckles’ James is funny. You’d think he was an actor.

[@mrLeejones]

The buckleys are back with a bang the last few weeks, the vlogs are always a highlight of the week, and with the podcast now in video form too it’s next level.

[@bekind4803]

OMG hahaha! Clair 'HEY not the Uggs' ..wee Cosmo...'I'm gonny kid oan I was going for a wee drink o' water` Soooo cute 🤩🥰

[@jaythfc]

Great parents, proper little family spending quality time together, all contributing to the Sunday dinner with laughter and banter. James & Claire are roll models for their generation of how to cherish good family time 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@polarfloyd5437]

"A hatchet job on old Buckles" made me laugh so much 😂😂😂

[@Positive-Sparks_2k]

Love how the ham "hatchet job on ol' buckles" turned into comedy gold! The kids making dessert and Cosmo's guilty water break had me in stitches. Your family vlogs are always the perfect mix of chaos and wholesome content - keep them coming! 😂❤

[@Calum-vn1sl]

The after dinner skit was hilarious.. comedy gold.. howling 😂😂😂

[@Uygkuyfkutfkytfkutfv]

My fave kind of episode. Thanks for having us along!x

[@AngrySpaghetti1967]

You 2 are adorable. I love how you guys interact it makes it fun.

[@SimSoFast]

Just as a side, as a married couple with kids how laid back approachable and inspirational for your kids you both are is absolutely fantastic as you both embrace the latest trends with having your channel but still keep the right family values, it's one of the only channels i let my twin boys watch as i lost my partner 2 years ago to cancer and being a single dad im trying to show them a happy medium woth the time they spend online.

OMG I'm in love 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 that wee man is so precious and adorable, I could cuddle him all day 😍😘😍😘

[@jenm3597]

When we were dog training we put a little bell with string on the back door handle and when the dog hit the bell you knew they needed to go out…such a really good idea for puppy toilet training x

[@kjs4154]

Good idea

[@robjacobs6745]

Brilliant! James and the ham ... I’m sure it can relate to most couples this !!

[@Sam-gy9vj]

The irony of james being grossed out by thinking the dog farted is not lost

[@christhompson1708]

That ham looked very good, very watchable you two make me crease 😂

[@tony-yp6qk]

Cosmo is so cute 🥰 Another great video has always James and clair and jude and Harrison and Cosmo 👍

[@pboro.d]

"would you like ME..." in a Scottish accent gave me flashbacks to George Galloway on Big Brother. I need a drink and a valium 😂😂😂

[@ukgirl6586]

Love that you put so much effort into your Xmas ham. Try scoring the ham and dotting with cloves, then all the maple stuff, gives a lovely flavour. Big kisses to Cosmo.

[@Captaincraftsurvivalgaming]

Oh myyyy haven't watched the video yet there can't be no deboccle give that puppy the ham I'll buy you a new one I've fell in love 😍

[@maxcullen3427]

Such a cute puppy love all ur work it hilarious thank you both best too kids & obviously you 2 + cosmo

[@tracymacbrayne3871]

Dont lose heart James. Your ham was made with love ❤ xx

[@iainholmes2735]

Enjoyed the seasonal vid. Re the kitchen: I'm getting a 1973 vibe, and a craving for a fondue party.

[@mcscars87]

ALL that work then aunt Bessie spuds absolutely broke my soul 😮 can’t believe you let that slide James

[@robertfitchet533]

I hope next week the Christmas decorations are going up. I can't wait to see james looking for the gloves for the tree. It's the same every year from the 1st episode. lol I can't wait

[@neiluk78]

Roast potatoes, gamechanger. Thanks Aunt Bessie.

[@manktank915]

I got a blue staffy about 5 years ago she's the best most loving dog in the world absolutely outstanding dogs trust me when I say you choose well ❤️

[@DavidJonescardiff1985]

Love the vlog. Again just a quick reminder clair for when u put up tree remember to do each section B4 u put on next layer hope u remember this yr be the first time in 5 yrs lol.

[@anthonynash2899]

Master chef here we come,😊👏👏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@grahambrodie520]

the incident with cosmo and the uggs had me in stitches the most guilty walk to the water

[@simonmccaughey2075]

James just to throw a spanner into your Christmas ham recipe. Substitute the water for coca cola. Not pepsi or any other store home brand cola's. Has to be original coca cola. Let it steep in the coke an hour or so before putting on the gas burner to simmer. Then when it's ready, let it rest in the cooked cola juices for half an hour or longer. Then lift out, glaze away and roast. Add a wee bit of Thai five spice with your honey glaze and everything else. Gives it like a cola fizz effect when it's done. Just my way of perfecting it after 15 or more years of doing "The Ham!" I do mine Christmas Eve night. A few drinks while everything basically cooks itself.

[@LindaGGG]

My friend uses Coca Cola too and her ham is always delicious Simon. Cider is a good substitute too I’ve heard.

[@lynnhurst7365]

I love that chair in the background, it looks like the one in the Adam's Family. You guys should take a picture and dress up like them. I bet it would look cool 😊. Love your vlogs, take care stay safe sending love and hugs from across the pond. Now I want ham ❤ it looked delicious

[@PTVplayer]

Peanut butter and slices of strawberries on toast. Yum 😋 Thanks guys

[@Tass...]

James is right a lot does go down in the maple syrup industry. "Dirty Money" The Maple Syrup Heist is a very good documentary.

[@mikayla9146]

Agreed. Canadian here🇨🇦

[@rayuk3939]

That last rant was hilarious

[@kevinfloyd3232]

Loved this episode. Really made me laugh. I can relate alot with James when it comes to cooking food. Why not just watch last years vlog for the ham recipe?

[@KazzaB08]

I love the ham debarcle..last year the one you thought was going to be crap tasted the best even though it didn't look it..I love the little pup..but I do miss the rottweiler bounce.xx✅💯🇬🇧

[@washedexteriorcleaning]

ive used the mrc powders in the red tubs and I sprinkled a fair bit in a bag and then tumbled the meat in the bag to cover all of it I think I let it marinade for a while too seems to soak it up good ,all yours looked awesome anyway merry Christmas to u all

[@jenstone9308]

I have a feeling James is going to have a breakdown over the ham on Christmas day! 🙈🤣

[@BBJay246-LFC]

Stanley Tucci is in "The Lovely Bones"...cracking film, I'm sure Clair will have watched that one before!

[@ButcherBeynon]

Whenever I watch 'The Lovely Bones' - I completely forget that is Stanley Tucci. Outstanding performance.

[@simonsaysrewind]

It's always windy in your place.. Mr Ivor Windebottom 😂

[@brianwright1980]

I love to have a stellar wellar and dinner around the Buckleys

[@52factorial-prob]

Crying with laughter! So good!

[@pikap8649]

Well the kids have the comedic timing 😂

[@samsmith5-1]

Clair’s face trying Harrison’s dessert was a picture 😂

[@baddestmofo3724]

Bit of a weird random comment but if theres ever a remake of On the Buses i think James would be the perfect casting for Jack the bus conducter.....can anyone elts see this or just me haha 🤣🤣

[@honestjohn7513]

Spot on 😂

[@bobbydwheelhouse]

Ha! Yeah!

[@KazzaB08]

Is it the teeth pmsl.🫣🤣🤣 ( Joke) 🇬🇧🚌

[@RJAH355]

There’s a slight problem with that. Todays buses are nothing like they was when it was made and the life my grandparents lived back then as well and truly gone.

[@honestjohn7513]

@@RJAH355 could be set back when the original was made, doesn't have to be modern day.

[@owenyboy]

If that’s a wee ham can’t wait to see the Xmas ham 🐖

[@jordanbohm6062]

Top tip always leave the dry rub on the joint of meat 🍖 for a least a couple of hours or overnight to allow the marinade to soak into the meat. Enjoy your content mate.

[@Steveefc845]

Majes my wednesday this vlog love it😊

[@JoeyTamburello]

The puppy is so cute! ❤

[@nadina5015]

The ham looks banging 😍

[@chrishalliwell5706]

Brilliant that ham looks bang on

[@English_Wanderer]

Calling Cosmo a good boy seconds after bringing the leaf in 😂 but not wanting him to do it.

[@PontiacS]

This Guy REALLY Loves Ham.

[@daviemcf]

Great video guys....James was very funny. 😂😂

[@dionneleadbetter692]

Cook the ham in lemonade for extra flavour 😢 brilliant 😅

[@josephvermiglio]

Cup of brown sugar at the bottom of your slow cooker. Put your gammon on top and then another cup of brown sugar over the top of the gammon. 4-6 hours on high.The sugar when absorbing into the ham with the salt and juices that come off it make a natural sticky glaze you can baste it with every now and then during the cooking. Then use the juices at end in your gravy. It's simple and superb.

[@maxbaker7327]

With the smoker/grill it does drop in temp when you open and close and have something in there especially if it's windy out best bet it to leave it don't open let temp come up and slow cook or crank up the heat a bit

[@bobbydwheelhouse]

When he was talking about maple syrup his eyes looked like it was 3am in some randoms kitchen and he was having that chat 🤣

[@XOPNYE]

James, I also did a ham trial run at the weekend. I soaked my ham for 24 hours before boiling it. I changed the water with fresh every 8 hours. It ensures the ham isn't salty. The boiling does alot of that, and it may be unnecessary, but guarantees a not too salty ham. #HamFriends

[@SimSoFast]

Having never really been an inbetweeners fan but a friend of Will Mellor and met Danny anumber of times when when i introduced him to Brad Welsh when he came up to edinburgh, your channel is hands down the best channel on you tube especially as im Scottish 😂, by the way Off The Hook was absolutely amazing. Dave age 45 eg. Old C£#£t from Edinburgh 😂😂😂😂😂

[@grsl4026]

Adorable that dog 🥰

[@andrewadam9544]

mustard, spices, dry rub, traeger, then in the last last half hour glaze so it doesnt burn :) but if you want to boil it first 50/50 water and cider pre heat traeger with bricks covered in foil then when you open to put the ham in the bricks retain the heat and your cooking again at temp in no time with no stall :)

[@ash_manc]

That ham look delish 😋

[@katherinecollins4685]

Fantastic video

[@Mike-u5o5k]

Who's that we don't have any friends bloody brilliant james

[@royalblue9108]

like your pots and pans

[@8bitplague]

Alright, I'm a Canadian and I need to let James know this. In case you were unaware, Canada had a vaulted supply of maple syrup just in case we have a shortage. Zero joke. As for if it's a good brand (I've never seen it in Canada, but most brands don't actually exist in Canada because we in Ontario can buy right from a maple syrup farm) it's easy enough to tell if it's good by looking at the ingredients.

[@amydupre8581]

Nigella’s coke ham is the best 🤩

[@buddyh42uk]

Understand about the upset watching Paisley, we had a Rottie cross with an English Mastiff (a Mastweiller named Killi ), but she passed in 2022 during covid, only 1 of us could be with her and even sometimes now when we get memories showing on FB and stuff it still melts us. We decided not to get another dog as we are both not in good health but also over 60 so too much work, make do with the 4 grand kids instead lol. New to your content but been binging it as love you both (Especially Clare being a fellow Scot)

[@Sam-gy9vj]

How have i only just realised the intro theme graphic colours are giving The Shining carpet vibes! Now i've got an image of James and Claire standing in matching frocks saying "come play with us Danny!"

[@miamiglia]

So glad you’re back !!!!

[@dandantheracingman]

Awesome video guys! Just awesome power couple! What’s James secret on his grass, I’ve watched all your videos now and he’s nailing keeping it looking awesome and struggling with mind 🤦🏼‍♂️❤

James has deffo watched the documentary go on lad 💪

[@ruk2023--]

I always end up wanting to eat something after watching these vlogs.

[@Leroy_Denzel]

Such a cute dog!

James!!! Pabloescasyrup 😂

[@TheMrKennedy]

I'm 2 days in to a 5 day fast and that ham looks godly

[@Thorswife]

Clair, I agree with the whole Stanley Tucci thing. If you haven’t already, watch The Lovely Bones…although be warned you may not see him in the same light afterwards

[@sirseanaa]

I would love it all, but I have old taste buds. Changes 😊

Who’s still waiting for James to release a Christmas single, he started singing one off the cuff during one of the very early vlogs.. if ladbaby can do it, so can James.

Hi guys, great vlog as usual. I'd like to ask where you got the big baking tray with the rack in it. I'm looking for something similar for my bbq. Look forward to the next hamalicious episode.

Hello lovelies could you tell me where you got the green and orange bed for your fur baby please ❤❤❤

I would send that damaged lamp back & tell them that 5his is how it arrived 😂. Have you ever had the honey glazed ham with the cloves pushed in all over it & roasted, it's different class

[@Wc-cr9oz]

Ham Ahoy 😂😂😁

[@peterl2866]

Cross cut the ham prior to seasoning and it will let the flavour infuse.

[@deborahpeacock7695]

U need to try cooking the ham in a slow cooker over night in coke, it takes all the salt away and the juices left over make the best gravy. Half an hour before you’re ready to eat it cover it in honey or maple syrup and whack it in the oven. There’s loads of videos on here on how to do it. I will say though u need a large slow cooker like a 6 litre one and use enough coke to just cover the ham xx
