Boeuf Bourgignon with Yorkshire puddings. Yes or no?

[TheTecknician]

I say yes because BB is simply a beef casserole, albeit from a French recipe, and beef goes with YPs. Plus the nice ones from the supermarkets are ready easy to cook.

No

Yes. Yorkshire Puds grace any meal.

But make your own puds.

Well it's not traditional, but it would be tasty...

Why not?

Nope, I wouldn't sorry. Only with a roast beef dinner for me.
Although of course you can if you really want it!
Making your own YPs is also really easy! This recipe works perfectly for me: www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/best-yorkshire-puddings

Yes, of course. Delicious!

Oh yes !!

Nooooo, dumplings. Has to be dumplings.

Of course you can! Never need an excuse for eating/making Yorkshire puddings
(But make your own - much nicer)

Oh yes! But dumplings are a good call too.

Oh yes - fusion! 😂

YES

I buy the beef dripping puds and I've always found them very acceptable. I DO make my own roast potatoes but they're normally a side dish for gammon, plus a rich cauliflower cheese.

What? No!

Yes. Yum.

Yes, Yorkshire and dumplings for me. 😋

Yes absolutely. FWIW I think dumplings are a bit rubbish (sorry dumpling lovers!). If I’m going to have extra carbs, I want them to be roast potatoes or Yorkshire pud.

Huge yorkshires are great with this as you can fill them up with stew for serving. Mmm.

You could have a trip back to a 90s pub and serve the boeuf bourgignon IN a giant Yorkshire pud?

No

Could make big ones and serve the stew in them - bit of a pub grub thing.
Certainly no reason not to have them.
Although, now dumplings have been mentioned...

I wouldn’t have yorkshires with any type of casserole , dumplings with casseroles , yorkshires with roasts .

Cross post and great minds 😀

French here. A big resounding yes!!!! Yummy.

I'm curious as why the naysayers say nay.
Bouef Bourgignon is, basically, meat with vegetables and sauce.
In the same way as a roast beef dinner is meat, vegetables and sauce (assuming you have gravy and, if you don't, why not?).
Having said that, I don't understand people who think Yorkshire pudding belongs in Christmas dinner.

Yes please sounds yummy!
