I'd suggest roasting a very fresh turkey crown, slicing it and cooling it rapidly then freezing it in top quality gravy before you leave home.

Just make sure you're not caught at customs

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Freezing Xmas food in a car and reheating days later sounds like a recipe for them Ecoli bacteria death bugs.
Many firms will now deliver Xmas food inresort, such as Huski in the French Alps.
Much easier. Tap an app.

Nonsense, you just need to be aware of timing. A deep frozen big dish will still be partly frozen when you arrive, insulated with a spare ski coat) and if then refrigerated (or kept in a fridge temperature cave) for a coupla days and then properly heated through will pose no health risks at all. If the meat you cook is fresh, then quickly chilled it would be fine kept for days in a cool temperature, even if not frozen.

If you're driving out we take 2 slow cookers and do xmas dinner in there. You can fit a decent sized chicken in the slow cooker popped on around 4pm after skiing, go out for some drinks and come back and brown it in the oven. Gravy is partially made underneath. Mash, some carrots and some cabbage and you've basically got xmas dinner. Stuffing balls in the tiny apartment oven are usually do able. Not everyone else's xmas dinner but definitely ours.
The other slow cooker being for some sort of sponge pudding for those of us who don't partake in the Christmas pudding brought from the UK.
We take any non meat non dairy items with us that we can and then buy the other bits at a supermarket on the way up.
Christmas present don't go anymore but my parents used to squish a few in the ski box and the rest would be waiting in the UK on our return in the new year.

E-Coli has more to do with cross contamination of raw supply line into already prepared, cooked food. Virtually nothing with well cooked and prepared food through a freezing and thawing event.
You're far more likely to "obtain" it from vegetables, sprouts included, if your prep and cooking of that fresh supply is not adequately controlled.
@Whitegold, Come on, keep up dear boy

Never had any issues taking frozen stuff, nicely defrosted when we arrive.
Besides the alcohol kills any nasties
