    There's a lot of " I'm the only gay in the village" in that post Crawls.

  • The only thing that appears to come easy to you is being a sanctimonious little prick in my opinion.   But please do enlighten me as to the other strings in your bow sweetie

  • Ready sliced - fried. Still entire - Boiled.

That's why I had to ditch the winkles, nightmare getting up to the vomitorium to shift those bad boys at the interval with size 11 pointy shoes on.

don't forget the winkle pickers

C'est moi, mon ami.

At the risk of getting this back to Black Puddings:
 

 

Went through a phase of making my own black pudding. Got a recipe from internet and popped down to the butchers for the ingredients. He refused to sell me any fresh blood as he said that it was too complicated to order due to some regs at the abbatoir.  According to him loads of Goth/devil worshipper types used to buy it and mix with Merlot for their odd rituals, so it was too much bother for him to get me any but said you could buy dried which came with spices already added to deter any blending. How much of that I believe I wasn't prepared to consider, but this was Blaydon after all.

So I bought the pork fat and a few other herbs/onions etc and boiled up my mix with the dried blood and poured it into skins he gave me.

After chilling them for several days I then sliced and cooked the resulting pudding. Texture was a bit soft but just about held itself together.

It tasted shit. I tried a second time to make it, still rank,  then fucked it off.

 

Same with my homebrew Merlot.....................

I work with some abattoirs and this is true. Lot of regs and the blood is a good additional source of revenue and you'd be surprised at some of the uses!

I imagine that's why most black puddings are made from dried blood rather than fresh.

Our old pub landlord used to put boiled black puddings on the bar when the Cheltenham Festival was on with a jar of Colemans mustard, one old Latvian bloke used to grab a plate and pile it up much to the annoyance of the locals. The landlord bought some very hot powdered mustard and put in the colemans jar the following day and told us not to touch it. He brought the puddings to the bar and the Latvian bloke jumped up grabbed a plate and filled it again smearing the special mustard over them. Never heard anybody scream as much when he chomped into them, mouth under the tap in the bog for 10 mins trying to cool down. Pub in uproar laughing.

black pud, with brown sauce.. yum.. 

Them black puddings they do at the Cherry Tree in Blackrod are a taste sensation.

Nothing derogatory in my opinion. I just made an assumption which you have not offered an alternative to at this time although that is entirely your perogative.

 

My views in life are my views. I don't seek endorsement from sanctimonious individuals such as yourself or anybody for that matter.

 

Will leave you to your self importance

Correct. They also eat pork pies hot and call barm cakes 'tea cakes'. Heathens.

Hot Pork Pies are lovely, especially when all the jelly has melted. Splendid stuff.

 

Calling a barm cake a tea cake?  -  fucking idiots

Don't even get me started on Christmas...

Sorry but did somebody just criticise hot pork pies?

It was me! When I worked in Udders, they ate them all the time. I had only had them cold and delicious so this was alien to me.

 

I am not ashamed.

Had one in Wales recently, straight from the oven . . . may actually have been better than cold. :o

Hot ones are far, far better. Not many places sell them though sadly

You should come over and we can eat some together.

Is there a difference between a hot pork pie and a whist pie?

Yes...a pork pie is pork. A whist pie is minced pork and beef (I think)

The bakery on Brandlesholme Road sell hot pork pies.

My Uncle who now lives in Bournemouth has about 3 a day when he comes up to visit.
