I cooked them today to save time tomorrow - they've all fallen out. Is this normal?

sniggers

Did you stick cocktail sticks in them or soemthing to keep them together whilst cooking?

Magrat · 24/12/2007 13:40

sorry that was one of my more unhelpful posts of the year

never done them myself

Desiderata · 24/12/2007 13:41

Did you use thin strips of streaky bacon?

If not, all is explained

coldtits · 24/12/2007 14:03

I used bits of bacon - it says cooking bacon on the packet, I cooked with it, and it didn't work. I don't think I allowed for shrinkage of the blanket.

They are pigs in handkerchiefs

lol @ pigs in hankerchiefs

Furball · 24/12/2007 14:09

sorry about that....

have you got any more bacon to wrap some more on.

I wouldn't worry, probably no-one will notice that there is more sausage than usual hanging out both ends. - and if there's any complaints they can do it next year!

surely all bacon is cooking bacon

Join the club...the lids came off my mince pies. I don't think pastry is my thing.

coldtits · 24/12/2007 14:23

Ohhh no. I'm not doing them again. I will inform The Family that "The pigs in blankets went Wrong. Never mind, they still taste the same."

I wouldn't say anything - just dish em up

Furball · 25/12/2007 19:38

were they OK coldtits?

Maidamess · 25/12/2007 21:01

I'm sorry, but your thread title made me laugh! And don't worry about culinary cock ups. We had one, I repeat one rock hard roast potato each at my MIL's yesterday.

coldtits · 25/12/2007 22:30

They were fine. My mother troffed most of them anyway!
