The most traditional English food is ?

Roast lamb sunday dinner. Plenty of mint sauce with thick gravy. Also, my last meal on death row should i ever mess up.

Most traditional, i'd say fish and chips..
 
I know where you mean, but you needed to go about a mile further up the road, you'd have been in the Balti triangle in and around ladypool road, supposed to be the most 'indian' restaurants within a square mile anywhere in the world, I used to live on the edge of it. It is a bit mental how many there are. I am a Balti snob, when you leave Brum they dont taste the same.
After working in Brum for two years came to love the food. Personal fave Hen and Chickens on Constitution Hill bit scruffy but amazing scran, tried to persuade GDM into a bite there but he was having none of it - straight back to his fave Red Lion for a (to be fair) very good trad English meal.
 
Steak and kidney pudding. None of that pie rubbish, a proper suet pudding. It's become a rare treat to find this on a menu and for me, it's one of the best English dishes you can find. Served with mash, good gravy and nice greens - savoy cabbage perhaps. And English mustard. Delicious.
 
Whenever Americans do impressions of us it almost always involves fish & chips..And tea..And the word mate

They also love to say Cheerio to you, in some bastard hybrid accent that makes you reconsider giving up serial killing.
 
My mum would do them with stuffing stuffed into them , quite tasty, albeit an aquired taste.

And she did cows heart too. We didnt have much money in my childhood.

Kids today would probably ring childline if they had to eat some of the food we did as youngsters.

I normally grind heart up, mix with equal amounts of fatty pork and make sausages with them, just thought I'd like to try something different

Heart is excellent for smoking, but they say frozen meat doesn't smoke well so maybe wait for next season. I've got some reidee heart at the moment - delicious!

BTW Idahoblues are you anywhere near the total eclipse this summer?
