The Full English Breakfast

[clive gash]

What, in your opinion, constitutes the perfect Full English Breakfast?

For me it’s bacon (two or three rashers), one fried egg, a slice of fried bread and HP.

For a special treat add a sausage or two, additional fried bread and either baked beans or tinned tomatoes (easy on the juice, the plate/bread gets swamped).

Potatoes, in whatever form, have no place surely?

Vogons jog the fuck on.

bacon, sausages, fried egg, toast, mushrooms, fried tomatoes ( never tinned..oh no) and black pudding for me please Nev.
With brown sauce natch.

[clive gash]

Black pudding, yes of course.

Additional question, its best eaten as ‘brunch’ no?

[clive gash]

The vexed question remains re. saucing. The presence of eggs means the HP doesn’t overpower the bacon but I’m a recent convert to tomato sauce in a sausage sandwich, gives em a real fruity lift. So - are both sauces permitted?

[The Modernist]

I think so. Brown goes better with mushrooms and sausages, tomato goes better with bacon.

[The Modernist]

Black pudding, yes of course.

Additional question, its best eaten as ‘brunch’ no?

Yes, but then I feel that about everything. I only like a coffee when I wake up!

The Full English breakfast achieved perfection at Daily Bread in my local village circa 2016. Homemade beans, sourdough, sausages and smoked bacon. Nothing else has ever come close. I challenge you all to eat there and come up with a better breakfast.

No eggs? No way.

Fucking sourdough?

Wanka.


You want basic, run of the mill generic toast.

[borofan]

Must have black pudding. And no bloody hash browns, they are not English, so have no place.

[BARON CORNY DOG]

I can’t claim any expertise, but ... sourdough?

And sod homemade beans. It's got to be motherfuckin' Heinz.

[Goat Boy]

Absolutely. People ponce this shit up but it's a working class meal.

Bacon, sausage, egg, beans, shrooms, black pudding, toast.

That's it. Fried bread optional extra if you're feeling decadent.

Brown sauce and ketchup are fine.

[clive gash]

Toast just never seems robust enough to cope with the onslaught, a fried slice underneath the egg is the right choice I reckon.

[clive gash]

...and I’ve missed the obvious - a big mug of builders (one sugar).

[KeithPratt]

No eggs? No way.

Of course. Two poached eggs.

You can claim your working class tourist experience but I'm all in with the full on gentrification of the English breakfast .

You're middle-class and you know it. Stop fucking pretending.

[Goat Boy]

Poached?

Fucking poached

I always knew you were a cunt

[The Modernist]

I'm surprised Toby's made do with the humble mushroom and not gone for the full on truffle experience.

It's like Vadar trying to convert Luke
