What is the worst roast dinner crime
Jump to: Newest in thread
Parsnips!
Godawful, deceptive things!
You just think: "Mmm, there's a nice roast spud left, I think I'll...."
And then you get that horrible sweet taste, shortly before gobbing it back onto the plate. |

I don't think mint sauce and gravy go well together. So when I worked at a hotel last year that did a Sunday roast, and someone had poured their gravy all over their food and then asked for some mint sauce, I used to always wonder why?
Why? Really, leave something to dip in your mint sauce and I'll get the request, but when you food is swimming in gravy, what is the point of mint sauce? |

1. Parsnips - Devils cocks
2. Brussel sprouts - Devils balls
3. Thin gravy - Why? 4. Giant yorkshire puddings - Just no!
5. Peas
6. Cauliflower cheese - Who the fuck thought of that?
7. Any kind of sauce - Because that's all you will taste

There's a few 'roast dinner crimes'....
1. Not Adding Meat Juice To Gravy....or Not Making The Gravy In The Roasting Tin.
2. Not Basting The Meat.
3. Not Allowing The Meat To Sit For At Least 10 Mins Before Carving.
4. Not Wrapping Meat In Tin Foil To Maintain Juices.
5. Not Adding Butter Or Seasoning To Mashed Potatoes.
6. Not Seasoning Vegetables Or Roast Potatoes.
 
I actually know a couple who cook exactly like that....their roast dinners are completely & utterly bland....so much so I decline their offers of an invite to dinner. |

"I knew a guy that used to dollop big wads of strawberry jam all over his roast dinner.
I win this thread."

I wish I could post a pic on here of the roast where I'm staying - currently in Lanzarote & there are theme nights for the buffet - no surprise Sunday is British/ roast...
To be fair the meat is half decent but it ends there - buffet consists of:
NO Roasties
Instant Mash
Tinned carrots
Tinned peas
Frozen broccoli
Frozen cauliflower (with lumpy cheese sauce)
....and watery, cold gravy
Needles to say I stuck to the local options on Sunday! x |
