Sounds excellent....I'd love to do something like that! Unfortunately, this is the first time the "inlaws" are meeting each other, and we have a vegetarian at the table and a bunch of "meat and potatoes" at the other end. so wanted to keep it somewhat simple. I may get a little "gourmet" on some of the simple dishes....

We have sauerkraut and Kielbasa every holiday, as well as the herring and either a ham or a turkey. I'd like to do both this year, but I'm running out of stove/oven space.
