Settle an argument - what sauce on what meat?

Been out in the cold all day watching DS at a football tournament. Back home and the general consensus was bacon/sausage sandwiches for tea. The circle of piss argument ensues. DH thinks I'm a heathen for having brown sauce on a bacon sandwich. According to him, it's brown on sausage and red on bacon. I say it's the other way round - who's right, him or me?

Brown on either bacon or sausage. Red sauce can get in the bin.

Blanketpolicy · 15/10/2023 19:11

It is the sauce you prefer on either. No rules.

Tomato on both for me.

CesareBorgia · 15/10/2023 19:11

Both on both.

Whatnow321 · 15/10/2023 19:11

I’m with you it’s brown (HP) on bacon and red on sausages anything else is just wrong 😀

Covidiokilledtheradiostar · 15/10/2023 19:11

Neither!!!

but if I had to ketchup on both

DiddyHeck · 15/10/2023 19:12

Are you just asking what sauce we all prefer on bacon/sausage sandwiches?

I prefer brown on sausage and red on bacon.

BerriesNutsConkers · 15/10/2023 19:12

Brown sauce is vile and has no place on meat or anything else.

BlazingWorld · 15/10/2023 19:12

Neither on either.
Mustard on sausage, at a push.

Tinkerbyebye · 15/10/2023 19:12

Whatever you want

JamSandle · 15/10/2023 19:13

Neither.

PimpMyFridge · 15/10/2023 19:14

Brown on bacon, mustard on sausage. <gavel>

You misspelt mayonnaise

Scampuss · 15/10/2023 19:14

Bacon needs a fried egg, no sauce.

Ketchup for sausages.

PinkiOcelot · 15/10/2023 19:15

I would have red on both. I don’t like brown.

OneTC · 15/10/2023 19:15

Brown sauce is horrible so I wouldn't ruin either with it.

Ketchup (or BBQ sauce if I'm in Australia)

Fallenangelofthenorth · 15/10/2023 19:16

Red on both.

Brown really only goes with pastry based meat products such as pork pies or meat and potato pie. I suppose if there was no other sauce I'd consider it on sausage but not on bacon, just wouldn't be right.

Tomato sauce on everything (if I could get away with it).

Brown sauce - why?

Justkoko · 15/10/2023 19:16

I'm with your dh on this one op.

bigbadbarry · 15/10/2023 19:17

Brown is only nice on eggs

Ketchup for sausages.

Snap was just thinking the same.

LouOrange · 15/10/2023 19:17

Cranberry sauce with Brie and bacon is delicious.

Candleabra · 15/10/2023 19:18

Red on both.
Though I only have brown sauce on a plated up cooked breakfast. For some reason I would never eat red sauce with a cooked breakfast but I prefer it on sandwiches.

Hidingawaytoday · 15/10/2023 19:18

Red on both.

ElFupacabra · 15/10/2023 19:18

Whatever sauce you want on whatever you’re eating.

That being said tomato ketchup is for children, philistines or used to cover up really crap food.
