FOO-Bar and SnaFOOD Grill

One of my favourites.

Toad in the hole is a traditional English dish consisting of sausages in Yorkshire pudding batter, usually served with vegetables and onion gravy. The origin of the name "Toad-in-the-Hole" is often disputed. Many suggestions are that the dish's resemblance to a toad sticking its head out of a hole provides the dish with its somewhat unusual name. It is rumoured to have been called "Frog-in-the-Hole", at one time, although little if any evidence corroborates this assertion. It can also be referred to, less popularly, as "sausage toad".

The recipe itself is rather simple but requires some skill to cook perfectly. A pan is placed in the oven and heated for about 15 minutes while the batter is prepared. The sausages and batter are added and cooked for half an hour. With frozen sausages, the meat is placed in the dish while heated. It is normally accompanied by gravy (often onion gravy), vegetables and potatoes, often mashed.

Roast chicken? On a Sunday? Get out!!!!

It's gotta be roast beef or pork mate! You disappoint me!

My Sunday roast was Mrs F's finest honey roast pork complete with crackling. :D :rock:

There's even enough pork left over for my sarnies tomorrow. :D

You can't say that! You'll have Mrs Highway Man on your ass I suspect! :lol:

Listen to the voice of bitter experience. If you ever criticise the missus over the Yorkshires and/or ask if they're Aunt Bessie's, you'll find yourself wearing the Sunday roast! I can assure you that being covered in hot gravy is not nice! ;) :lol:

Every Sunday even when its hitting 120 in the shade, we always have roast beef, yorkshires, roasted spuds, peas and maybe cauliflower or runner beans covered in lashings of beef gravy.

In UK I use to grow my own potato's and runner beans, I would never let the potato's mature to full size, I always dug them up when they were about 2 inches in diameter. Now Sunday roast beef with baby new potato's and freshly picked runner beans is the stuff of dreams.:p

Someone will have to tell the undertaker.:-(
 
I don't have Beef in my house.
As the wife being Northern, wants to cremate it.
Whilst I, being of Southern stock, like it still breathing.
I cook my own steak, about 30 seconds a side.
She makes good Yorkies mind.

She's a vicious moo if you slag off her puds, all home made. That was just a stock photo for illustrative purposes only. ;)
