I fancied classic pork sandwich, the kind you used to be able to buy at the pork butchers, (remember them ?). Roasted a 2.5 kilo loin of pork, rubbed the rind with olive oil and sea salt. Dipped the stottie cake, ( that's a BIG bread bun to you southerners ), in the meat juices. Sage & Onion stuffing, pease pudding and the creme' de la creme', Colmans English Mustard ! Must be served hot, of course ! A sandwich fit for kings ! I was looking forward to it so much, taking pics didn't enter my mind ! Cheers. no pic.....didnt happen..lol 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember many years ago, my brother and I used to go to Wallsend Rising Sun Whippets on a Sunday morning, then afterwards go to the Rocket bar in Longbenton. We had to pass our mums house on the way and would call in, she wouldn't let us leave until we had bread dipped in the Sunday joint juices, as "it would put a lining on our stomachs" for the drink ! ! Bless her ! Cheers. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know they are wank but sort of nostalgic wank Tinned tattles, one minute in the deep fat fryer, excellent ! About 25p a tin at Aldi. Not gourmet, but a bit of Maggi seasoning and almost as nice as home made chips ! Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We used to dig out the brown bits but, we had to make sure that Grandad had enough left for his work sarnie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonjon79 13,340 Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 You know what, I'm going to sound like a right old git but, folk nowadays haven't got a clue - I reckon so much is being lost. My local butcher does sell beef dripping but he has to filter out the brown bits before it goes in the tubs, otherwise people won't buy it. He also has to trim the skin off pork - I get a bit for free whenever I shop in there. He bins loads of it because his customers have either never heard of or never tried crackling 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
