在传统的圣诞餐桌上，烤火鸡是不可缺少的菜式。在一些亚洲国家，或许每年只有圣诞节这一天才吃火鸡，以庆祝佳节；但在欧美，尤其是美洲大陆，火鸡却是很普通的一种肉食，而且在感恩节和圣诞节这两个大日子，火鸡更是传统的陆裤食品。
火鸡是美洲特产，在欧洲人到友山美洲之前，已经被印地安人驯化。火鸡的名字在英文中叫“土耳其”。因为欧洲人觉得它的样子像土耳其的服装：身黑头红。欧洲人很喜欢吃烤鹅。在移民到美洲之后，还没有养好鹅就有了吃鹅的要求，于是就吃火鸡，竟然发现火鸡比鹅好吃。而且北美洲有很多火鸡。于是烤火鸡成了美国人的大菜早告简，重要节日中必不可少。
这种风俗已有三百多年的
历史了。
据说在一六二零年的圣诞节，大批来自英国的移民抵达美洲大陆的朴里茅斯山。当时，那儿物产贫乏，只有遍布山野的火鸡，于是他们便捉火鸡，作为过节的主菜。
因此圣诞大餐里，除了火腿、甘薯、蔬菜、葡萄干布丁、水果饼、鸡尾酒之外，当然少不了火鸡这位“仁兄”了！
