We had our roast on Saturday, in between watching our beloved City and the united match, which I watched in the vague hope they would get beat, (plus my rag mate was here too).

2 joints of beef, (was feeding quite a few), with all the trimmings and the fittest gravy you will ever taste. Just regular Bisto, but I poured the beef juice in with the hot water and it was almost bummable it was that fit. I did the roast spuds in goose fat too, (practice for xmas day), and whilst a few went a bit crumbly, the majority of them were crispy perfect. Infact balls to this, i'm gonne be as bold as to say I make the best roast on Bluemoon!

Sorry to piss on your chips Mr.P , but that's some statement to make from someone who uses gravy granules to make a gravy ( sacrilege ) .
Next time you pull the roasting pan out of the oven , remove the meat from the pan and allow to rest for ten minutes , place the pan ontop of the hob on a moderate heat ( make sure your pan is hob resistant ) top up the meat juices with some wine ( red for dark meat , white for white meat ) reduce slightly , then sift in some plain flour and whisk until the lumps have disappeared and the gravy has thickened . For added richness add a couple of tablespoons of unsalted butter just before serving , check seasoning . ;-)

Ok, you hold the newly coveted trophy of 'best gravy maker on Bluemoon', i'm gonna keep the best roast trophy though!! Like your idea though, I must say. I think i'll do a trial run on Sunday when i will be slightly hung over from the match, which is followed by a night on the xmas markets.

Somebody told me Micah Richards goes to the Arndale for his Sunday roasts. Not sure why. They must be nice though.
