Do you eat hot food Shabbos morning?

I posted this in another thread, and not wanting to divert the topic, I'd like to hear more about it here,

Isn't that attributed to the Karaites ?

We usually do, but when we don't we have coffee or tea on Shabbat day--a hot beverage.

We usually don't eat our cholent till 4-5 PM or so. Basically kids' dinnertime.

yep, we eat chulent for breakfast shabbos morning!!!

yes, for shabbos lunch

YUp, I meant Shabbos lunch....not your coffee morning breaker lol

Some simply are paranoid about fires, or lazy, or like cold food.

My dd loves chulent in the morning, in the night, in the day, always.

I was raised having cholent every Shabbat lunch, but I was also raised in a house where we paid no attention to electricity bills. When I'm only air conditioning down to 76 instead of 72 and my house is humid anyway, (1) I can't bear to have the cholent pot making things even hotter, and (2) I just don't want to EAT hot stew. So we just started making cholent again. The hot water we have more often than cholent, but often not even that in the summer.

I was under the impression it was just something hot so tea or coffee was fine. I am more likely to eat cholent at shul then at lunch later. I love cholent but cant handle it in both places. I call it my cholent diet.

Off topic but couldn't resist.

CHOLENT IS LIKE A CREDIT CARD.
ENJOY NOW, PAY LATER!

as I understand it - there was an era where jews would be prosecuted for keeping shabbos & that is when cholent became the norm - it mean something like hot pot ...

my slowcooker broke so since then I hardly make cholent since it burns if I put it on the plata and spoils on the blech. Plus we don't like it that much so it was getting made and not eaten. And no one likes it after shabbos either.

If we are having guests I will make cholent.
