Why are my Yorkshire puddings shit?

As the title says.

When my mum makes Yorkshire puddings, they puff up just right, crispy and brown on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Just perfect yorkies.

I use the exact same recipe - I weigh everything with digital scales every time. Use the same type of fat in the tin, cook at the same temperature, never open the oven door once they are in…..and mine are just shit. They either don’t puff up at all or they puff up the wrong way and come out like cupcakes 🤨
What am I doing wrong?!

Controversial view in the UK
It's not just your Yorkshire puddings that are shit Op, they all are (although perhaps you have to have grown up here to appreciate them)!

I've no idea who ever came up with the idea... "Oooh, we've got some tender roast beef, roast spuds, some delicious vegetables and gravy. What's it missing? I know- some deep fried batter!"

<Slinks off the thread>

may i be the 94th person to point out that Yorkshire puddings aren't deep fried? no wonder yours are tasteless

(also, OP, Yorkies are dogs.)

My mum always swears by using water and milk. But it must be lovely soft Yorkshire water.
