How Often Do You Have A Full English?

[RabbitsRock]

The last time I had one was in April when we stayed in a Holiday Inn & it was delicious. It’s been years & years since I made Full English at home. I sometimes have bacon, egg & toast.

We go out for breakfast/ brunch a couple of times a month. But I dont eat bacon or beans...tend to go for a veggie option

Every few weeks, I love them and mine is so much nicer than the ones you get out! The tomato is never cooked enough for my liking, the mushrooms are tasteless, bacon is flabby with fat and the sausages are suspicious - I'm really fussy about sausages and only like high meat content ones.

I do bacon medallions, long chipolatas, poached eggs, grilled cherry tomatoes, chestnut mushrooms fried in garlic butter, baked beans and sourdough toast (or fried potatoes if I'm feeling fancy). It's the best.

A few times a year probably, we might have a couple on the bounce at a weekend then none for months. It does have to be tinned tomatoes though, that fresh nonsense doesn't cut it. Otherwise, poached egg, sausage of some variety, smoked bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes, toast, beans and brown sauce. And I sometimes throw a hash brown in as I like them.

I don't eat breakfast at all at home unless we have guests but I always have the works if I'm staying in a hotel. This thread is well timed actually as we've got guests coming at the weekend so it's reminded me that I need to get breakfast stuff in my next shop.
It might just be bacon butties or eggs on toast though as cooking a full cooked breakfast takes ages and is so messy!

I don’t think I ever have, it seems like an odd combination of things to eat in the same meal (and I don’t like bacon or sausage much, so that would be immediately out.) I’ll have eggs and mushrooms and toast if we go out for breakfast, a few times a month.

Plus now I’ve had proper hash browns in US diners, I don’t think I can look at one of those weird little hockey puck ones we get here in the same way!

Sometimes on a Saturday for brunch, especially in winter. Other than that, in hotels.

If I'm making it at home, I swap black pudding for haggis so maybe not a full "English". I don't mind black pudding but dh and ds prefer haggis.

Pretty much only if we stay in a hotel (and even then I'd only have elements of it) or once in a blue moon if I've had a big night out and am hungover the next day where we'll go to the local greasy spoon for a huge, dirty breakfast.

I quite often do poached egg on toast or mushrooms on toast or bacon sandwich or sausage sandwich at the weekend.

My ideal cooked breakfast in a hotel would be a poached egg, a high quality sausage, two rashers of crispy bacon, mushrooms and a hash brown. But if there's nice fruits and yoghurt, I'd probably have that instead and just do egg on toast as the cooked element.

In the summer months, cricket season I take DS for one every Saturday before he plays in a long cricket match. In the winter market nths I cook one at home each Saturday morning. I try to keep it healthy as I can though so half fat sausages, hash browns cooked in air fryer, bacon and half tomato grilled, just indulge with egg fried in olive oil and a slice of toast with butter.

Oven works great for bacon

I love them but this thread makes me realise I can’t remember the last time I had one. I’m quite fussy about the specifics so rarely see one that hits the mark (in terms of contents) but then I don’t make them at home when maybe I could. I need to plan one soon.

Only in cafes maybe twice a year and hotels on holiday and then not every day - im
more likely to have scrambled eggs on toast with mushrooms -

Every Sunday - a local church puts on a breakfast café. The food is cost price only, and it's helped to increase the sense of community.

We also often choose a full English when on holiday.

Most Sunday mornings; but not ‘full’. 2 chipolatas, 2 bits of bacon, 2 hash browns and a fried egg. About once a month with fried mushrooms and baked beans.

Not since having chemotherapy last year. There’s lots of food I can’t look at anymore and that would be close to top of the list.

Never at home but either at a hotel or if we go out for breakfast I would say once every couple of months.

Never. I’m not interested in sausages or baked beans.

My idea of a great brunch is something like toasted sourdough with avocado, feta/ hallumi and seeds.

Probably about once a decade? It's just a LOT of fatty food and I don't love it.

We don't tend to have it for breakfast but do for lunch or brunch at the weekend sometimes, particularly if we have friends to stay. So maybe once a month or so.

Would usually have:
Sausages
Bacon
Hash browns or hash brown bites
Fried or scrambled eggs (personal preference)
Baked beans
Mushrooms (not for DH or DD)
Toast and/bread and butter (personal preference)

I'd also do black pudding if my Dad is around but generally not otherwise.

Bacon and egg or sausage and egg sandwiches are more likely to feature as a weekend breakfast.

I'm also partial to mushrooms and beans on toast with a fried egg on top for either breakfast or lunch when I'm working from home sometimes. If there's a leftover sausage or slice of bacon then that's a nice bonus!

Hardly ever- I always enjoy eating it but it’s just not worth the inevitable indigestion I get for the remainder of the day!

My ideal one would be:

Bacon but it must be crispy. No flabby fat.

Sausages as long as they aren't gristly.

Beans.

Mushrooms.

Fried egg.

Hash browns x lots.

Tinned plum tomatoes with lots of black pepper.

Fried bread.

HP sauce.

Glass of fresh orange juice.

Forget the toast and the black pudding.

Probably about once every six weeks when we have people to stay. We let people serve themselves though so everyone can decide if the beans touch the eggs etc.

We make:

Heck sausages.
Bacon medallions.
Scrambled eggs.
Hash browns.
Beans.
Toast.
Orange juice and tea or coffee.
I’d like mushrooms but nobody else seems to!

I usually have fresh grilled tomatoes, two eggs, loads of mushrooms, sour bread toast, occasionally beans and if I have left over cooked potatoes, I slice and saute them to have as well. I don't have bacon or sausages very often.

I probably have a version of the above most Sundays.

Usually only at holiday time but since Christmas, Tesco have been selling their 'best of British' pigs in blankets 10 to a pack for £5, 2 packs for £6 club card price.
These teamed up with egg, beans etc makes a reasonably priced, easily made, especially as they're oven baked, almost full English for any day.
Just the 2 of us now we're retired and 1 pack is plenty for us but nice to have more just incase ADC and/or DGC pop by.

Ooh I love pigs in blankets!
