Strokes Posted 24 November 2013 Posted 24 November 2013 Me and the lady only get one day and evening together a week. Which ever day that is we usually have a roast, i think the idea of it being a 'sunday' dinner was the fact the whole family could attend. Modern approach to working on a sunday has changed our outlook on the roast.
Deucalion Posted 24 November 2013 Posted 24 November 2013 Meat juices, oxo, cornflour and water. Maybe add herbs, onion, garlic or chilli depending on what you fancy. Gravy for sausages...add tomato ketchup !!
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 24 November 2013 Posted 24 November 2013 As long as the gravy moves around, I don't care what it's like. It's the gravy that just lies there and sets that I don't like. No one should need a knife to cut it with, surely?
SystonFox Posted 24 November 2013 Posted 24 November 2013 Any night is fine for a roast but somehow a Saturday is wrong. Saturday should be for beers, pizza and kebabs? Not roast tatties!!
Zingari Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 Got invited to my misses's friends' for dinner this weekend - the usually couplesy fake bollocks. As it happens we didn't go because they cried off ill. Anyway, I was originally very unexcited about going, but my misses said we'd be having a takeaway there so I thought at least I can fill my face and keep quiet. I then got told we weren't having a takeaway but that they'd be cooking a roast dinner - at which point I kicked off. I was already upset about having to spend my Saturday evening doing false couplesy crap, but I found the idea of a roast dinner on a Saturday evening strangely abhorrent. It's called Sunday dinner for a reason. My misses still maintains it isn't weird to have a roast on a Sunday evening, so it needs to go to a vote. Eating roast dinners on a Saturday evening does seem a bit of an endurance, but all men must be prepared to make huge sacrifices like this to please our womenfolk. Be a man and suffer the pain to give her pleasure.
jonthefox Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 Stuffings vital with a roast too.Regardless of what meat you choose.

Zingari Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 Just so long as you pick the right stuffing, sage and onion is for pork. Yes , you've gotta get the stuffing right .Especially if it's on old bird and not a spring chicken.
Samilktray Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 It's a boring meal no matter what day really.
Finnegan Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 It's a boring meal no matter what day really. If Jay Z loved a lamb joint and Yorkie puds you'd be all over it.
Samilktray Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 If Jay Z loved a lamb joint and Yorkie puds you'd be all over it. I had a lovely roast dinner yesterday. But the fact remains that as meals go, meat & gravy is a bit bland.
Nick Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 If I could eat a roast dinner every day and nothing else, that'd be fine with me.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 If I could eat a roast dinner every day and nothing else, that'd be fine with me. As long as there is plenty of Yorkshire pudding, then I agree.
Jace Posted 25 November 2013 Posted 25 November 2013 You can eat a roast on a Saturday but only if its Christmas day on a Saturday
Fox92 Posted 27 November 2013 Posted 27 November 2013 I love Roasts, and think you can have them whenever. I've eaten the during the week before - yeah, I'm a rebel.
Guest MattP Posted 27 November 2013 Posted 27 November 2013 If I could eat a roast dinner every day and nothing else, that'd be fine with me. I agree. Missed this thread. Acceptable anytime, I've had one for breakfast before.
