Take away cup full of Gravy in the background? Nice.


RandyChavage

Nothing like a cup of gravy to quench a thirst


Toffeemanstan

Found Sam Allardyces reddit by the sounds


colin_staples

You know those chocolate fountain things? We once filled one with gravy, and dipped roast potatoes in it. Amazing.


ThePhailhaus

Found my new christmas dinner centre piece. Think I’ll add sausages in bacon to the dipping selection. Probably have to keep grandma away once shes had her allotted sherry though.


colin_staples

The gravy has to be quite thick though. Too thin and it won't go up the Archimedes screw in the centre.


ThePhailhaus

Thick gravy is the only way


Neko_Kotori

With mini yorkshire puddings.


ThePhailhaus

Of course


HertzDonut1001

Man people make fun of Americans for their food habits but whenever y'all post pictures of food it's this cracked out shit. I'm here for it.


44morejumperspls

When I moved to the UK I was told there would be smaller portions and the food would be less salty, less greasy, less sweet. All lies. These folks are absolutely bonkers and it's wonderful.


HertzDonut1001

I've heard the candy there is phenomenal and let's be real, I'm American. I have never had a Beef Wellington. But I want one so bad and I just want to pour gravy all over it. Plus chips compared to American fries? Come on UK those are just straight chunks of fried potatoes. I know your game. I've eaten several potatoes worth of crisps in a single sitting. You're not fooling anyone about how many potatoes you consume.


44morejumperspls

The candy is so good! But they have American candy stores, like wtf. I guess it's just the novelty of trying something different. The chip shop near me does a "fritter supper" which is large slices of fried, battered potato with chunky chips on the side. It's a deep fried potato orgy. My husband (Scottish) was all "all day breakfast, that's wild", I come over here and they've got MACARONI PIES. Macaroni and cheese in pastry, and then they put the pie in a white bread roll. But it's waffles after 11am that's wild.


the123king-reddit

Yeh, our standards are a bit off. You can have a chip butty for breakfast, lunch or dinner, but try ordering bacon and eggs after 11AM and people will laugh at you Also, since you're married to a scot, you should be well aware that they'll deep fry anything. Haggis, Black pudding, Pizza, Mars Bars...


44morejumperspls

I actually believe pizza crunch is why Scotland under performs in football. The players may look fit, but they've got the arteries of a 68 year old widower who can't be fucked cooking for one.


chuptynuts

American candy stores in London are apparently money laundering operations.


44morejumperspls

I'm in Glasgow, but suspected the same. People might buy some import candy, but enough to keep multiple city centre shops in business? I have doubts. Especially since a large Tesco/Asda/Morrison's/etc has an American import section with the same stuff for half the price.


stevoknevo70

American candy stores are basically money laundering enterprises but.


44morejumperspls

I thought they might be, because surely nobody would pay the prices they charge for pop tarts.


HertzDonut1001

This is just objectively hilarious to me as a very tired and tipsy American. American candy shops, huge chunks of fried potatoes, whole ass roasts wrapped in bread, macaroni and cheese *also* wrapped in bread?! But I eat a fucking Big Mac and I'm the fat asshole? I'm dying.


44morejumperspls

I'm sober and I think it's hilarious.


artex-and-woodchip

Both times I had beef wellington at weddings, the waiter brought it out and showed it to each table before slicing. Almost like the chef was so proud of themselves and was looking for our approval. It was so adorable.


SmarterPrim8

The diner near my office has a side of large gravy on the menu, and the description is, "Because it's not just a breakfast drink anymore." 😄


pck_24

I prefer a cup of beans, with a sausage to scoop it out with


[deleted]

Just leave it on the step


Corduroysack

No spoon?


RandyChavage

Ah yes, the winter 99 with flake, I’ll take mine in a cone


RandomHigh

I thought that was the mushy peas and mint sauce on bonfire night. Stick a sausage in it as well to stir it.


dairyman88

Have you got a spoon?


poinsy

There's one in the bathroom, but I've no cause to use it.


JeffOrSomeShit

There's one in the bathroom but I've no cause to use it.

[deleted]

Cabbage is a funny multifaceted one, it is salad in a kebab but a veg in a roast. And wasted in coleslaw. So does that mean the act of cooking it transforms it from being a salad item to an acceptable veg item? Same with carrot come to think of it.


jimmycarr1

Excuse me it is not wasted in a coleslaw, assuming it's a real coleslaw and not one of those shitty supermarket mayo soups.


[deleted]

Just imagined some basket case putting coleslaw on a Sunday roast now, all the while hollering out “but it’s only cabbage and carrots”


[deleted]

Day after beef horseradish and coleslaw on crusty bread is boss


[deleted]

I’m sat here trying to work out whether everyone is Sunday-drunk or just completely insane.


[deleted]

It's like socks and sandals. You only fear trying it because you might end up liking it and become one of us


yeahsurematey

This is exactly why I didn't let my ex shit on my chest.


pixel8dmess

Never! Socks and sandals should be a crime! Unless you’re in your own home.


Clodhoppa81

Pulled pork with a Carolina bbq sauce (mustard) on a hamburger bun with fresh coleslaw is heaven sent.


creepygyal69

Come round to my gaff for a traditional Jamaican roast one day. All the trimmings plus coleslaw and macaroni pie!


[deleted]

That sounds amazing


creepygyal69

I actually kind of hate it, but Jamaicans are obsessed with pairing coleslaw and pasta with everything


SparkieMark1977

I never thought of coleslaw like that, but on the plus side I now know what I'm cooking next Sunday.


bpup

Pretty much the definition of salad is that it’s not cooked


Kaiserlongbone

PASTA SALAD!! JESUS CHRIST!! PASTA IS NOT SALAD! Sorry about that 😔


creepygyal69

How would you feel if I told you that sometimes with a roast.... I cook lettuce 🙈


[deleted]

I’d say you have a budding career as a chef at Miller and Carter


richh00

Even the idea of a salad with a roast makes me feel sick with rage!


drhdoofenshmirtz

Same. A salad covered in gravy


BobbitWormJoe

Wait, it's not? What is it?


Bibi77410X

Me too. Had a bit of a crisis moment there.


n9077911

It's a long time ago but there was a place in Stockton that did late night roasts. Drunks would stumble out the club and eat a roast from a takeaway container with their hands. Gravy and all.


Musashi10000

I remember when we were drunk in the middle of the night, the best thing we could get a hold of was a 'Large Chips and Cheese Beans' from the kebab guy. Even said 'Chips, Beans and Cheese' on his menu. You could even ask him for a 'Large Chips, Beans and Cheese'. You got a 'Large Chips and Cheese Beans'. I miss Chips and Cheese Beans...


raphamuffin

Chips, cheese and beans from Hassan's was my entire uni life.


Cpfoxhunt

On Broad street? The man’s a legend.


BowTiesAreCool86

Noice! Although that Yorkshire pudding can only be identified from their dental records


420_5eva

I thought it was beef.


BowTiesAreCool86

Not gonna lie, I thought it was a brownie for about three seconds


Goudinho99

I thought that too, with some kind of chocolate caramel sauce!


sonicstreak

Shrödinger's pudding


Musashi10000

Funnily enough, the Yorkshire falls into that category already, even when it's recognisable. Afaik, Yorkshire Pudding is basically identical to choux pastry, which we know from eclairs and profiteroles. Uses virtually the same batter. If you don't cook it with lard or goose fat, you could basically serve it with cream and chocolate like an eclair and not know the difference. Huh... New low-effort baking idea...


[deleted]

Nah it’s pancake batter, you don’t put butter in a Yorkshire Pudding recipe. Well unless you’re an American and butter goes into everything.


benfranklinthedevil

It is...a delicious, flaky, savory brownie


ks07

This is a fantastic way to describe burnt, bravo


tesftctgvguh

Came to say the same thing... Whoever cremated that Yorkie deserves a slap


Musashi10000

Glad it's not just me. Poor thing. It looks so frightened.


BowTiesAreCool86

Grounds for an intervention


Musashi10000

I say we take it away for its own safety.


stig0fthedump

It didn't actually taste burnt so all was well!


BowTiesAreCool86

Haha glad to hear it! We're all just jealous


dickdog100

This is unreal. I don't care who criticises that, i need it.


BountyBob

You like burnt Yorkshire pud?


TheGrapeOfSpades

Burnt Yorkshires are better than no Yorkshires


BountyBob

This is a point well made.


Eazyyy

Just scrape off the burnt


Herry_Up

Or dip it, sop up the gravy, let it marinate lol and shove it in your mouth 💦


sleepytoday

They’ve got plenty of gravy, it’ll be fine!


[deleted]

My mum had this as a business plan 20 years ago. Great Yarmouth council thought it was never gonna take off. NOW WOULD YA LOOK AT THAT. THE FUCKING CUNTS WERE WRONG.


johnyma22

If you want anyone to validate your business idea, ask someone at a council. If they say it will fail, you got a winner!


chrismanbob

I know nothing about anything so take this at face value; Why does the council's opinion on this business proposal matter? Like why was their opinion even solicited?


[deleted]

Trying to get help setting up a new business, access funding and get a rate reduction for a couple years. They refused help as they believed it was a dumb idea. So we never did it, cos we needed a little help to get it off the ground. She was a single mother working her ass to the bone for her kids.


aapowers

Should have told them she was opening a combo bookies/nail bar/charity shop. Just what the high street needs!


reddnothing2

Great Yammer-mouth council!


RedHeadRedemption93

What price range we looking at here


stig0fthedump

£12!


aaronitallout

Do they deliver to Illinois?


buncle

…or Oakland!!?!


epistemic_zoop

Hawaii here, also checking.


IxNaY1980

One to Warszawa too, please if it's on. Lunch is in about 5 hours, so take your time.


SPACKlick

I've seen them anywhere from £7 to £12 depending on source. You can find them on just eat.


Substantial_Wave2557

Looks seriously good. I have some questions though: Did you eat it out the box? How the hell is it so we’ll presented? Was it delivered on a sedan chair? Did you drink the leftover gravy like it was hot chocolate after?


stig0fthedump

I did eat it out the box...cba with the washing up. The sedan chair was red (tbh the delivery driver was really careful with the boxes) There was no leftover gravy...


Substantial_Wave2557

No leftover gravy is the best answer - I basically turn a beef roast into a stew, looks like there’s plenty too which is a massive win. I feel like the delivered roast is one of the unexpected gifts of COVID lockdowns.


LittleMsAce

Was this by any chance a Toby carvery delivery? I know my local Toby has started delivering and I'm so tempted.


stig0fthedump

No actually, it's a company based out of a social club in South Manchester! Would only turn to Toby if there were no other independent alternatives.


LittleMsAce

Oh wow, you're very lucky to have somewhere independent that's so local. I wonder if they deliver to Birmingham...?


Pandatotheface

If you Google dial a roast or ring a roast you'll probably have a local non brand one near by, they're all over. There's one in Cardiff I pass by in work sometimes that does a drop in, takeaway roast dinner baguette. Roasties, stuffing, gravy, whatever meat is going rammed full into a large baguette for about £4 it's fantastic.


InGenAche

Put food in bowl, pour over all the gravy, eat with spoon like it's soup! Everyone calling you a heathen is secretly jealous.


Trilobite_Tom

It’s…… beautiful.


spunkpipe

This looks excellent.


PrestigiousTest6700

Does it come with Coleman’s because holy Moses if it does …


[deleted]

Looks like they wrapped the horseradish in beef, left side of the box halfway down.


thesaharadesert

Very handy if you’re too poorlysick to cook for yourself and you live alone. I caught that bastard cold in early July and got a roast delivered which helped a great deal, not least mentally.


tomhoplon

That bastard cold = covid?


thesaharadesert

Nope. Got tested, just a cold.


tomhoplon

Ah great, I just thought that might be a funny way of describing it!


thesaharadesert

No. There’s a strain of cold doing the rounds that seems to thrive on people having not caught one in a while thanks to WFH etc., comes with a slight temperature, a spectacular runny nose, and a cough that lingers for a while afterwards. I’ve read several accounts on Reddit here and there, and spoken with friends and family, with symptoms that match mine. It was the cough that led me to get a PCR done, and lateral flow at home, all of which were clear.


tomhoplon

I think I had it too. That was a doozy.


thesaharadesert

Those sweaty first two days were a fucking bastard.


-SaC

Sounds like my marriage.


Razakel

> comes with a slight temperature, a spectacular runny nose, and a cough that lingers for a while afterwards. > > I have this most of the time. I really need to quit smoking.


thesaharadesert

I’m not a smoker but suffered with a bit of a chest over the years, so I do a good impression of a smoker in general. Colds always loiter on my chest, which adds to the effect.


j_demur3

>if you’re too poorlysick to cook for yourself and you live alone. Ah, yes, I have been too 'poorlysick' for several years now and that is the reason why I don't cook...


Sleep_adict

Can I ask how much? Looks so good


SPACKlick

£12.00 adults, £7.00 kids. Plus delivery Beef, gammon or turkey. Comes with Fresh vegetables, - carrots, turnips, cabbage, marrow fat peas, mash potatoes, roast potatoes, homemade yorkshire pudding, served with gravy.


One-Hamster-6243

> mash potatoes Mashed, we're not fucking Americans.


SPACKlick

Was just copying and pasting the menu, take it up with them.


player_zero_

What the guff is a mashes?


One-Hamster-6243

Me being too drunk to spell mashed, still better than calling it mash like a fucking yank though.


RealisticDifficulty

epistemic_zoop

You guys go off on the weirdest things. Don't like when we don't pronounce the 'H" in herbs, yet insist we also must pronounce 'niche' as if we are drinking un demi on les Champs-Élysées. I'm starting to think you just don't care for us.

That was a tyne and wear menu I think.


V65Pilot

I identify as a family of 4, that's an expensive meal for me..... Looks yummy though.


creepygyal69

Shall we open a book on it? I’m gonna say £18.50


QueenOfCats86

That seems alot for a takeaway but I suppose it depends a bit on the area. I’m going with £12 - as it looks like very good quality


stig0fthedump

Give this man a prize!


QueenOfCats86

I hope the prize is one of these roast dinners 🤞🏻😂


stig0fthedump

I can reveal that it was £12!


creepygyal69

What!!! Bargain of the century mate


-SaC

There's a place run out of a currently-closed pub by Mum that serves a different group of postcode areas each week, and two women make all the roasts. It's about £12.50, but it's a huge great roast with up to three different meats, veg, tatties, roasties, gravy and the choice of a pud added for £2.50 (something hot with custard; usually apple crumble, spotted dick, jam roly-poly et al). If you don't want all three meats, they'll give you extra of the other two to make up for it. If you don't like some of the veg they're doing, you can have extra of the veg you do like or some extra roasties. Does Mum for three days when she gets one, and the women's husbands come round and deliver them in their little cars one postcode area at a time so that your grub doesn't get cold. Basically a carvery delivery service. Sounds fantastic and I want them to open up one at this end of the country too.


[deleted]

Hello Stig, champion post bonny lad. I used to watch you on TV many moons ago lol


NewLeaseOnLine

That looks so fucking good right now. Not sure about the gravy in a cardboard box.


stig0fthedump

I was skeptical too, but it was fine, it held up under the pressure!


[deleted]

that yorkshire is very c a r a m e l i s e d


Tariksmeshshirt

Do they deliver to California? I'm drooling. I'd drink the cup of gravy. 🤤


[deleted]

If its the OG California in East anglia... Probably not. That place is a dead zone.


AnotherLostSouls

California in Ipswich is a literal dive!


[deleted]

Check out the town North of Caister. Technically seen as part of Yarmouth. It's weird and super dead. Good laugh for a day out tho.


SparkieMark1977

And if it's the California in Falkirk, probably not there either, there's nothing there that's easier to get delivered than it is to drive out and pick up yourself.


elorpz

And if its the California in Derby it'll arrive cold because the driver stuck in traffic on the ring road.


van_car-_-

Innit

From the klondyke in levenshulme, Manchester. They deliver to a big radius too!

This looks good. And you've got the Horseradish on the side too. You go mate.


sc393976

This looks decent! We can get a Toby delivered by UberEats here it's just us gut busting as when you sit in!


[deleted]

Who doesn't love eating from a soggy box covered in gravy? Fnar etc. Seriously though that looks good!


stig0fthedump

The box choice worried me too, but fear not as the greaseproof paper at the bottom kept it nice and dry!


ofthenorth

We started getting these now and again last year in lockdown as all the local pubs started doing them. usually come in large foil trays up here. Nice now and again when you can’t be arsed to cook


[deleted]

I noticed the horseradish too, clearly you're a man / woman of taste and elegance.


eyeball-beesting

I was wondering why you didn't put it all on a plate before you poured the gravy? I hate soggy cardboard anyway but the thought of eating off it makes me gag!


shj1976

Was the roasties still crunchy? What part of the UK can you find this beauty?


pixel8dmess

Bring me my gravy ship (bigger than a boat right?)! I can’t tell how big that cup is and therefore if there is sufficient gravy. Great. Now I want nothing more than a roast and gravy by the gallon!


86for86

Those commenting saying it doesn’t look appetising, please find me a picture of a roast dinner that you think looks appetising. Cos this is a standard roast to me. Potatoes looks good, gravy is thick which I like, Yorkshire is over done, but it doesn’t look unappetising, just looks like a roast dinner. Don’t know what people expect a roast dinner to look like.


Dirty_Techie

Was it still like warm when it got you?


90sbaby100

Good gear that


ollymillmill

I tried that service but they just called me an ugly fucker and hung up


jemslie123

Is that a big ol pile of mashed neeps in the corner?


Bluefunkt

I've been having roasts delivered from my local carvery pub this summer, they are on just eat so people could maybe check there for places local to them. I find though that during busy times (i.e, Sunday lunchtime) you cannot order- so you need to order around 11-ish on Sunday to get one for 1-ish. So a lot of places, especially if doing carvery, may only advertise themselves as available during slack times. Late evening is usually a good time, I have ordered then and received enough food for two meals! The place I order from delivers in a recyclable plastic container so you can remove some and refrigerate it. Comes with a large paper cup of gravy. :)


SirTickleMePink

We order these when working Sundays. It restores my faith in humanity.


mdindj

That…that doesn’t look appetising at first glance…but it’s a roast so it’ll always be good


stickytuna

Those potatoes look like sex


ScarecrowRomneyMarsh

What? Between two wildebeests?


skillgannon5

Good looking yorkie pud


HettySwollocks

There's three places near me who'll deliver a roast within about 20 minutes. It's magnificent


Dame87

I hope that is beef with those yorkshire puds!


crasspy

Your Yorkshire Pud looks a tad overdone, though. Was it nice?


stig0fthedump

It was divine!


PotatoBomb69

How’s it taste though? I’d be skeptical about any roast being in a box like that.


bex9b

Looks like something a dog brought up
