Mags Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 We had pork dripping more than beef but beef was better flavoured and with a smear of Bovril on top it was heaven. We called it bread drip and bov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Hi Lazyherbert That is a perfect description. Are you sure you did not live at our house? Don't forget a nice mug of tea to wash it down. And of course, the bread was tosted on the fire. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soft ayperth Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 how very very sad if i ever go into a church iwill say a prayer for you Say one for me too then flyer, will you? There are many dishes that I miss living over here: pork pies, hot meat pies like were available in the pubs, real back bacon, pickled cabbage and big pickled onions, jam sponge with custard, and the list goes on. I even enjoy black pudding when I visit the old sod (as in the country, not the person). But I hated bread and dripping while I was growing up. Wasn't fond of fried bread either. Just a matter of taste.:gag: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbuck Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 bread and dripping - sounds disgusting Thats what the rest of our family say..But the wife and I still enjoy a crust of bread spread with any sort of dripping..And since we bought the "George Forman" we have an endless supply from the dripping tray at the front.

davyboy Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Welcome to the forum Nellie My Mam always had dripping handy, just in case anyone fanied it on some bread. We had a snobby neighbour who informed us, down south (where she was from) they didn't eat dripping! Well she was talking rubbish, both my family and my wife's family had bread and dripping........with salt and pepper,delicious. Don't know if posh families did though, we weren't.

Wainy Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 rogGI have lived in Pennsylvania USA for almost fifty years and still miss a lot of the foods from home.There is an import shop I can get things from but, no meat products are allowed in the USA. You live in one of my most favorite s places on earth, but must admit driving on the Confederation Bridge scares the daylights out of me.
