u/daversa

I kept noticing how Dr. Leo Marvin started to remind me more and more of Dennis as he descended into madness. His delivery of "I'm on vacation!" in particular has strong golden god energy.

Kind of my standard burger these days.

Hope this isn't too offensive 😅

This time I went with shredded cheddar on the base, home fries, scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado, pickled red onions, and a HP/Sriracha sauce.

Sauce:

1. 2tbsp Mayo
2. 1tbsp HP Sauce
3. 1tbsp Sriracha
4. 1tsp Worcestershire
5. 3 cloves garlic confit
6. 1 tsp rice vinegar

I recently posted my attempt at a Staffordshire Foundry Bap and was told overwhelmingly that I needed to try the oatcakes.

I think I did everything justice here and they came out delicious! Not too dissimilar to a normal American pancake just thinner and a little more robust. Better for savory options too.

How'd I do?

I recently learned about Staffordshire foundry baps and wanted to do this important working man’s food justice.

As I understand it, they started in foundry canteens: beef patties steamed over “under-onions,” then served on a heavily floured white bap with mature cheddar, brown pickle, and English mustard.

I used the Ted’s-style steaming method, poured melted Kingdom cheddar over the patty, and added Colman’s. I couldn’t find Branston, so I made a rough brown pickle with relish, Worcestershire, and malt vinegar.

I also went Lemmy-style: brown sauce under the beef and crushed pork scratchings over the cheese.

“Mustard above, pickle below; wrap it tight and off you go.”

Served with thick chips, malt vinegar, and a Samuel Smith’s Nut Brown Ale. Hopefully I’ve done the foundry workers of Staffordshire justice.

This might be my favorite food item lol.
