Sudden withdrawal of post-Christmas sandwich? (4,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cold turkey

'sudden withdrawal' is the definition.

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for cold turkey that I've seen before include "Problems of withdrawal" , "Cure" , "taken in the days after Christmas?" , "Depression" , "result of stopping drugs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
