@lilacfloyd - (If you're right handed)...mind you, I'm pure left handed except for 1 thing...eating dinner, where for me it's 'fork in my left hand, knife in my right & elbows off the table'😉👍
What's really weird, is my mum like me is left handed and she eats left handed with the knife in her left (dominant) hand and fork in her right. Like me, so many of the left handed people I know eat right handed which is really strange if you think about it and doesn't make sense.
Was in the arctic circle for 58 days, pulled into Portsmouth and got an English breakfast, after eating garbage for almost two months it was the best, the ladies really appreciated how I wolfed it down
80 years ago ,once a child had progressed on from just a spoon ,the usual tools for a couple of years were a fork and a handle with a wide end bent over ,called by our family a `pusher'. Held one in each hand, the pre-cut food was pushed along onto the fork, then into the mouth off the fork. Once old enough not to need pre-cut food a knife was introduced . By about 4 years old ,using junior sized cutlery children were usually managing well but having a bit of help with cutting difficult bits .
If Taylor doesn't dig black pudding we will have to reconsider his status. The trick to eating a full english is mixing foods with each mouthful... ensure the egg yolks are dippable
When I was 16, I worked hard Labour, we'd eat 1 of these, maybe twice the size you have, everyday. We'd burn through 5k cal a day no joke. Cook the Mushrooms in butter, eggs in butter, do bacon first all together and leave fat in the pan then do sausages in that oil and then bread in the same oil, never add too much oil.
You guys are hilarious! A full English 🏴 breakfast is one of my favourite meals ever. Right alongside a traditional Sunday roast! Great job guys!
This breakfast is generally eaten as a gathering after a heavy drinking session, it's soul food, it's heavy, it cures all. You play with each element, you can put it all in a bread roll, make a sandwich, mix it, eat each element separately. It's up to you. Talk, laugh, eat.
Black pudding and blood pudding are the same dish, also known as blood sausage. It's a sausage made from pork blood, onions, herbs, spices, and a filler like oatmeal, barley, or buckwheat.
With the amount of other faith's than the Christian one pouring into our UK an old full English breakfast might be soon a thing of the passed with Bacon being outlawed.
What made me laugh was the "once a month" comment?? 95% of construction workers (except plumbers and sparkies) demolish this each and every morning! The bonus is 95% of the time your boss pays. ❤
2x Sausage. 2x Streaky or back bacon. Mushrooms sliced and fried in the bacon fat. A slice of fried black pudding. Beans. A grilled Tomato. A slice of fried bread . A slice of buttered toast. Two fried eggs. Brown sauce is a must as pairs well with the black pudding and sausage. That’s a full English!
Guys, remember this is, for the most part a hangover cure. You drink enough alcohol to put 3 or 4 people in a grave. then get up as early as possible the next day and put together this miraculous, life restoring creation, that puts you back in the pub on a Sunday lunchtime. Guarenteed you'll fall alseep early Sunday evening and wake up ready to go, Monday morning... Bring it on! Come get some, grrr!
@@vickytaylor9155 saw black pudding being made when I was a child in Salford, just made me more hungry👍🍴😸.....saw tripe being made (processed)...never ate tripe and onions again 👎🤮
Very close Vicky but, there is a company that still makes black pudding from fresh pigs blood and it's just how it should be. I won't post the details but you can message me if you want, much respect to a fellow foodie
I’m an English Head chef in a busy cafe and I make ‘Full English’ breakfasts every day; and I just want to say that was a great attempt, that looked tasty af. Personally I would get some mushrooms on there and definitely a hash brown or two. Oh and as for frying the bread in the bacon pan, why wouldn’t you! Nice work fellas.
Well done guys, a very good effort! You nailed it by saying it's all about the different combo of tastes. You will now appreciate a well cooked Full English whenever you come across one
The 1 difference I notice is that you all eat with just a fork where as we brits use our knives aswell, we also don’t drop the knife to swap the fork to the other hand. Great you love our breakfast
Bubble and squeak is a good side dish for a fry-up. A perennial favourite, It was popular around World War II as it was a thrifty dish made up of leftovers. In brief: potatoes mashed roughly with leftover chopped up cabbage, with softened onions and/or spring onions and herbs, black pepper and salt then seasoned with butter and moulded into thick round fritters before cooking in butter or oil until golden brown. 😋😋
Other than eating it wrong - Knife in right hand and fork in left hand you did great, We also put it all in 1/2 French Stick (bread) at a road side cafe. So I'm a Brit and I always have two hash browns, 2 sausages, 2 bacon, 2 fried eggs, 2 fried bread & beans and call it an All-Day-Breakfast as a treat once or twice a month. Plus 2 mugs of tea :)
As a proud Englishmen, you need a good slice of thick bread and butter and /or toast. The thing about the English Breakfast, (moving forward) you can add or takeaway. It is all about the flavour AND texture combinations you can form, like a bit of HP Sauce black pudding, sausage, beans, egg yoke and toast.....Yum. It is to be enjoyed, once a month is my regularity, some have it weekly. £8 to £12 is a common price. And we regularly put this in a sandwich!!
We don't generally call it blood pudding, its usually called black pudding. Also put some oil (veg oil, or sunflower, something similar, beef dripping if you can, or lard if you want to be old school) in that pan. Or better yet cook your sausages (and maybe the bacon too) with a grill (look up what we mean by a grill in the UK, its not the same as you mean it) and don't add extra oil. Eggs should be fried in some sort of oil though, for best results.
Why do Americans never seem to use knives !! Spend ages trying to cut food with a fork instead of fork in the left hand ( even if you’re right handed) and a knife in the right for the WHOLE MEAL, not putting them down after mouthfuls !
@@kate6038 maybe the proper use of cutlery is quintessentially English dating back a thousand years ? british being a 317 year old bastardised political union of Anglophobes' ?
Yes. Most full breakfast sandwiches are based on Bacon, egg, sausage and tomatoes ( or simply "a BEST"). However, you can add or subtract any of the other food items to your own taste as you did with the Bacon and Egg butty. A local shop in Yorkshire, England, used to sell "A gorilla filler" a massive 10 inch bread bap sandwich containing 2 portions of everything. Amazing
Yep, many years back I worked on the scoring at an Ashes match at Headingley and the local cafe outside the ground used to do a full English breakfast sandwich in a Scottie.
My youngest brother was an award-winning chef, had a fusion restaurant, his crowning achievement though was his all day breakfast at his café... voted best breakfast in South Wales.
I noticed something, do Americans only eat one thing at a time? Do you not construct a bite? Mark is the only one who made me smile a big smile! He made a bite trying things together about 70% of the time! Go Mark
Yes, Americans tend to eat things one at a time. Even finishing the entire entree before moving on to the side dishes. Many plates in the US have dividers to keep food items separate.
I think that might just be the best attempt at a Full English that I've seen by an American channel, that was spot on ingredient-wise especially with fried bread which a some people replace with toast, only improvement I'd say is add a little oil or fat to the pan, it was looking a little dry at times and you can also use a little tomato ketchup at the table too, also I heard you mention tinned tomatoes, I know some people like them on their fry-up but for me it has to be fresh tomatoes fried until they get a little colour too, a nice big juicy beefsteak tomato is really delicious! I'll eat a fry-up once or twice a month at the weekend, best hangover cure on earth!
Also don't wash mushrooms, just brush the any soil off, catering shops actually sell mushroom cleaning brushes for doing this, but any clean and sterile brush will do, you want to keep them dry before frying
Guys the blood pudding, one of you said you can eat it on its own, well in the north of england, thats what we do its often on a sunday, put on bars, in its state before you cook it ir fry it, its usual on a plate, cubed, with cubes of cheese, small cheese crackers and small pickled onions, its free to pick at while at the bar, and ordering drinks, in the workmans clubs on a sunday, usually every table gets a free plate of what mentioned.
Mine on a Sunday morning. I don't eat again that day btw.. Is beans, Mushrooms(Chestnut), Tomato, Then it's double all the way, Two bacon, Two Cumberland sausages, Two Black Pudding(Bury) slices, two SPAM , TWO EGGS ,TWO fried BREAD ,two toast with butter. A massive Lord Vader mug full of Typhoo.. Then a long walk out doors. note absence of hash b@stard browns..Great vlog again guys.
Knife and fork please gentlemen. The knife goes in the right hand, the fork in the left. They stay in the hands from start to finish unless eating the fried bread or toast. Instead of hash browns it should be either sliced leftover boiled potatoes fried or bubble and squeak.
@@kesa39 no it is always left hand fork. Blame the knights from years ago that held their sword in the right hand for battle and then cut their meat with it. It is taught this way in etiquette classes.
@@vickytaylor9155 This is an example of where etiquette is wrong due to arrogance. Because logic says that the dominant hand should control the knife. We are not knights anymore, where the right hand thing was due to how people passed in the street, where you would need to train your right hand to be dominate even if you were left handed, because of survivability, so combat tactics not "etiquette".
@@vickytaylor9155- God help you if you & I meet for a sword battle. I'm pure left handed and my sword will definitely be in my left hand! ... After I defeat you, at the victory feast, I'll in fact have my fork in my left hand and my knife in my right, as it's the one & only thing I do right handed😉👍
Nope. In a working class Scottish house i just used a fork and knife like everyone else without anyone telling me to. I'm left handed, and no one ever tried to change that in school.
You covered pretty much everything, I'm salivating!. Only thing I'd add (as a Scotsman) is potato scones. Swap the HP for HP Fruity too if you can find it.
Soon after I was born in Plymouth, living on Dartmoor, my mum n dad used to have visits to Badger's Holt to get Devon Cream Teas. I'm going to swear as far as Devonians are concerned, and say that I prefer scones with the jam first, cream second (on top) Cornish way...sorry fellow Devonians 🤦👍
@@rosemarielee7775 Well, most of the black pudding I've ever bought looks something like that. Depends on the recipe, I guess. It's already cooked. You're just reheating it. It's not until it's fried that it takes on the blackness. Keep the temperature medium high and don't mix in the same pan with wet-cured bacon.
If we all club together we could buy them some knives,if you use a fork get one with a sharp edge,similar to a cake fork.Maybe me ,but the fried bread looked more like toast (butter on it) Ideally fried bread is bread deep fried but more often cooked in the frying pan in the left over juices and oil..Blood pudding can be a bit different to the prefered black pudding,Whatever way enjoy.
I like the beans with the sausage, and the Black pudding (blood sausage) with the yolk from the egg, and the fried tomatoes with the bacon - well done for getting the items spot on.
Brits usually either have HP sauce or (Heinz) ketchup with their English Breakfast, I personally don’t have either as the baked beans provide the sauce. You guys did really well to import legitimate UK products and cook it the English way - hats off to you guys! I’ve never been brave enough to try Black Pudding! And I always scrap the mushrooms and tomatoes off mine. English don’t eat that breakfast every day we usually just have something quick like toast or cereal. An English Breakfast is usually a one-off now and then either down a cafe or at home often at the weekend. English Breakfasts are either cheap and greasy down a cafe (a bit like your roadside diners) or are made with really good and higher end ingredients (like Gordon Ramsay as you mentioned). I personally prefer upmarket ingredients but my husband likes his cheap and greasy. I’m amazed in American movies that families always do a cooked breakfast for the family with bacon and syrup or pancakes, is this a standard thing?
Interesting they say about its nearly 12pm and they eat breakfast as 8am ect, because another name we give the classic fry up is 'All day breakfast' and we often in our house have it for tea (dinner) since its a pretty big meal when you have everything on there, Cumberland sausage, 3x bacon, 2x black pudding, 2x fried eggs, tinned tomatoes, mushrooms, beans, hash browns, toast or fried bread. Also Black pudding is as varied as sausage is, lots of local varieties, locally it has lumps of pork fat and oats in it. Also it's already cooked from the packet as its steamed. Also, us true Brits certainly do eat hash browns! 😂
We DO make Breakfast Baps ! Get a Large Bagette and cut one end off. Spoon the bread out and fill with the full English. Stuff the spooned out bread back in to seal the end. Enjoy !
For the mushrooms, cook them slowly in butter. I also add chopped garlic and a sprinkle of parsley. Add a very little oil to the pan before doing the fried bread and fry until it's golden. Eat it with the fried egg - it soaks up the yolk very nicely. I only have this at the weekend.
@@margaretflounders8510 No, garlic mushrooms. Fry the bread in plain oil, but make sure it is good and hot before putting the bread in or it will go soggy.
@@BLANKSnooneaskedforI don’t think you messed it up in any way at all. Great job 👏🏻 The only advice I’d give that’d make it better is using a knife and fork so you get bits of everything in a bite.
Great job guys, blood pudding is Black pudding. I tend to finish it off with a knob of butter when cooking. Fried bread can also be called dipsy toast. You may not have had enough fat from the cooking so adf more fst get it hot dipbthe bread in both sides and let it fry till golden, this is NOT TOAST. As some of you mentioned if can go on a sandwich so there would have been sliced bread or toast on the side toast is dry cooked no fat. Buttered toast with marmalade would be the second course in a full English for a sweet finish. Brilliant job well done, pretty much every English Cafe has an all day breakfast on the menu. Fuel to keep a man energised in a cold damp environment like the UK. I know you tried fish and chips before but try and get fillets of Cod or Haddock and try it again. Then do a Cottage pie the topping creamed potato mixwd with at least 50% grated cheddar and a piece of blue stilton cheese mixed in, baked in the oven till top is browned. Serve with side of green veg of your choice and some crusty bread. Check out classic recipe Cottage pie uses minced beef carrot, onion, celery, sslt pepper, mixed herbs worcestershire sauce. Shepherds pie same but with minced lamb.
There are quite a few Greasy Spoon cafés tho DO sell an entire cooked breakfast on a sandwich - frequently, near me, called a Belly Buster. When you come to the UK, a visit to Bury Market in Greater Manchester, is THE place to get Black Pudding. I don't even cook Bury Black Pudding it is so delicious.
There is a sandwich shop near me that sells a breakfast roll. It contains egg, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages and bacon. It is very nice and usually does me 2 meals.
I used to live near an industrial estate and on a saturday, when the cafe was shut, a guy in a van would show up and do a breakfast bap... cost £3 - this is 2010-ish... would pop dowbn on a Saturday morning - I'd buy 1 bap, bring it home, open it up and serve it as a breakfast - for two of us! The guy was a magician!
*Black pudding For me, got to be tinned plum tomatoes and you need a runny egg to dip everything in!! Cracking first go guys!! Plus, whack it all in a bread bun, it’s lush ❤
Tinned tomatoes are an abomination! Halved tomatoes, seasoned, a nob of butter on top and grilled is the only way. But you're right about the runny egg.
I normally have a little plate with two slices of bread (Not Toasted) and butter and use that last to wipe up the left overs on the plate. All the bean juice, HP, EVERYTHING so that plate can be put back in the cabinet!! That's how clean that plate would be after.
One of the delights of the English Breakfast is all of the flavour combinations you can put together. Mmmm! Your version of the breakfast was excellent!
A tip, if you're going to fry items like the sausages - you'd have some fat in the pan just to prevent the black spots. Though I think most today probably cook items like the sausages, black pudding etc in an air fryer. The UK also has variations and lots of optional items. For example in Scotland you'd at least also have square sausage (also called lorne, steak slice etc) which is beef based, and a tattie scone. Which is essentially mashed potato mixed with some flour and rolled out to a thin layer and lightly friend. Optional Scottish items are haggis and fruit pudding (yes it's got fruit and it's fried). Northern Ireland have their Ulster fry, so will at least contain soda bread and pancakes are pretty popular too. Growing up we always had left over potatoes sliced and fried with beef link sausages. Another favourite is bubble and squeak, it's also the leftovers but the potatoes mashed with cabbage and any leftover veg from the previous night's roast dinner. You form it into patties and... fry. I personally don't do beans, but I do like a tomato sliced in half and fried along with mushrooms. If there's plum tomato on the go I'd have that too. You can't really go wrong, just put the breakfast items you like on a plate, cooked how you like it - and bang, that's a fry up.
Well done guys. Looks like you cooked everything right! For me it's a treat once every few months, for for a lot it is a must every morning before a hard days work. You can always spot the best "greasy spoons" by the people in there/parked outside. Personally I go for coffee, but I guess it should be tea. Basically you won't need lunch, and only a lite evening meal afterwards.
Full Scottish has haggis, tattie scones, blach pudding, fruit pudding, slice, links, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried egg, scrambled egg and just about anything else that'll fit in a frying pan. When we go over to Northern Ireland for the racing the breakfasts over there are something else too.
as a chef from scotland i think yall did great for a first time, next time, if there is a next time, start with your pan oiled and on a lower heat and 3/4 cook everything and let them finish off in the oven on a tray at a lower heat and itll give you time to cook the eggs on a low heat too and then you can plate everything up and everything will be nice and hot when eating,, bearing in mind this is a full english, us scottish folks have our own version of breakfast with square sausage and bangers and potato scones with eggs and bacon and tomato and optional haggis and white pudding as well as black pudding (blood pudd) and beans with toast or bread rolls because we love building them sandwiches... the bread rolls we use are commonly called morning rolls too so you know what to look for
@@Invernaewhere the fruit pudding is white pudding my friend, thats what we call it in the kitchens but you are correct to state that white pudding is indeed fruit pudding like you said was missing but i did include it in the list, its just a terminology variation but im sure you understand now the terminology of the black pudding and white pudding variation buddy
Cracking job boys. When you come over don't go anywhere but any little local greasy spoon (small cafe) for a full English or a BEST buttie, bacon, egg, sausage, tomato
When you cook / fry your eggs try to lift them out of the pan while the yolks are still a little runny and then when you get to eating the meal let the yolks drip over the black pudding or dip the black pudding into the yolks so that the yolks act like a sauce on the pudding. Also try deep frying the fried bread until it’s golden and crispy
Hash browns were always one of my favourite parts of a full english growing up, dipping them in the baked bean sauce. When I used to go to tesco with my nan shopping they always served hash browns with it. I think it was around £3.50 back then.
Hash browns are pretty common, despite what people try and claim here lol, like there's some secret rule on what you can and can't add. Potato in general isn't unusual, in lots of different forms, like potato cakes, bubble and squeak, rosti's or even just cubed or sliced and fried, which was typical of a Little Chef Olympic breakfast for instance, which were hugely popular in the UK until the mid 90's when they declined. But for a long time, they were very popular and where lots of people in the UK would stop to have breakfast when on a road trip or just travelling.
Dunno why people take offense to it so much. I too like hash browns with breakfast. Who cares where it comes from, imo it goes really well. I'm guessing many others enjoy it too since it's practically a staple in cafe's now.
As an Englishman, I did believe for a long time that all the beloved cousins must truly be starved of a genuine breakfast: the FULL ENGLISH! Until I visited Georgia some years ago, and discovered an AMERICAN BREAKFAST. Oh my word! We compete for perfection, which means we are the same!
It gives me anxiety watching people try "full" English because its never full English but for the most part you guys got it pretty good but you'll never get a true Full English without stepping on English soil to experience a true full English breakfast and the flavours that comes with it. A full English breakfast is a proper breakfast will put hairs on your chest and good to go all day on a building site, I'm glad you loved it i remember once my friend came and my dad licked his clean and told him to put it back in the cupboard 😂😂.
Maybe swop the fresh tomato with a can of Italian plumb tomatoes - the extra juice/sauce you get in the can adds to the flavour of the other items. I'd also cook the mushrooms separately in a small pan with unsalted butter. And add a teaspoon of oil to the frying pan/skillet to cook the sausages - it'll stop the sausage skins from burning so black (helped by frequent turning so it's just brown on the outside).
@@flawedgenius Didn't want the push the brown sauce as well. Some prefer red. I've seen Americans trying beans on toast and English breakfasts saying the food is bland. That's why I said salt and pepper.
Great video and well done creating the breakfast. Can I suggest a simple Cheddar cheese & Branston pickle sandwich on white bread, followed by a sliced ham & Branston pickle sandwich and finally, a Cheshire cheese & picallili sandwich to complete the trio.
@@Paul-hl8yg yes in my opinion what else would it be hahaha. You can't seriously tell me that you don't like fried bits of spud with crispy outside and soft middle. It's amazing. I bet you secretly order a side plate of hash browns in the cafe and eat them when no one is watching. Very naughty.
Okay...how did we do?? 👀👀👀👀

Is this true? Do Americans not use knives to eat a meal? That's pure insanity!
Knives aren't just used to cut the food, but also as a "stop" against a forkfull of food to get more on it, with the prongs curved downward.
80 years ago ,once a child had progressed on from just a spoon ,the usual tools for a couple of years were a fork and a handle with a wide end bent over ,called by our family a `pusher'.

Cook the Mushrooms in butter, eggs in butter, do bacon first all together and leave fat in the pan then do sausages in that oil and then bread in the same oil, never add too much oil.
You're short of a slice of bread and butter to mop all the juices up.
Lovely!
I’m a bread and butter guy. Much better than toast
Better with tomato ketchup
@@judyparsons1333 certainly not
You guys are hilarious! A full English 🏴 breakfast is one of my favourite meals ever. Right alongside a traditional Sunday roast! Great job guys!
This breakfast is generally eaten as a gathering after a heavy drinking session, it's soul food, it's heavy, it cures all.
You play with each element, you can put it all in a bread roll, make a sandwich, mix it, eat each element separately. It's up to you. Talk, laugh, eat.
That's not blood pudding, it's called black pudding.
same thing
Black pudding and blood pudding are the same dish, also known as blood sausage. It's a sausage made from pork blood, onions, herbs, spices, and a filler like oatmeal, barley, or buckwheat.
Wasn't even black pudding. It was brown whatever it was

2. Guys, watching you struggle cutting your food. KNIVES. USE KNIVES! 😅

2x Sausage. 2x Streaky or back bacon. Mushrooms sliced and fried in the bacon fat. A slice of fried black pudding. Beans. A grilled Tomato. A slice of fried bread . A slice of buttered toast. Two fried eggs. Brown sauce is a must as pairs well with the black pudding and sausage. That’s a full English!

Black pudding is dried blood, pig fat and porridge oats with herbs, salt and pepper.
Most underrated item on the full english
@Anonneruse , I won't even have a cooked breakfast if they don't do black pudding, so definitely not underrated by me

Very close Vicky but, there is a company that still makes black pudding from fresh pigs blood and it's just how it should be. I won't post the details but you can message me if you want, much respect to a fellow foodie
dried blood? sure about that?
I’m an English Head chef in a busy cafe and I make ‘Full English’ breakfasts every day; and I just want to say that was a great attempt, that looked tasty af.
Personally I would get some mushrooms on there and definitely a hash brown or two. Oh and as for frying the bread in the bacon pan, why wouldn’t you!
Nice work fellas.
Sausage, bacon and fried egg sandwich with choice of sauce is a must for you to try.
Screw that man, get all of those things in a sarnie.
Well done guys, a very good effort! You nailed it by saying it's all about the different combo of tastes.
You will now appreciate a well cooked Full English whenever you come across one
A small amount of everything in each bite!! Yum.
The 1 difference I notice is that you all eat with just a fork where as we brits use our knives aswell, we also don’t drop the knife to swap the fork to the other hand. Great you love our breakfast
Cumbrian here, 52, I only ever use a knife when eating steak or of I am out in a restaurant/function, fork all the way at home
Heathen
Impressed with cooking the breakfast boys and glad u enjoyed it. Proper English from across the pond.
Bubble and squeak is a good side dish for a fry-up. A perennial favourite, It was popular around World War II as it was a thrifty dish made up of leftovers. In brief: potatoes mashed roughly with leftover chopped up cabbage, with softened onions and/or spring onions and herbs, black pepper and salt then seasoned with butter and moulded into thick round fritters before cooking in butter or oil until golden brown. 😋😋
Now you're talking!
Just 4 blokes enjoying it.
Like workers on a Rig after a grim shift.
That's our Breakfast.
Try a Sunday Roast.
Other than eating it wrong - Knife in right hand and fork in left hand you did great, We also put it all in 1/2 French Stick (bread) at a road side cafe. So I'm a Brit and I always have two hash browns, 2 sausages, 2 bacon, 2 fried eggs, 2 fried bread & beans and call it an All-Day-Breakfast as a treat once or twice a month. Plus 2 mugs of tea :)
As a proud Englishmen, you need a good slice of thick bread and butter and /or toast. The thing about the English Breakfast, (moving forward) you can add or takeaway. It is all about the flavour AND texture combinations you can form, like a bit of HP Sauce black pudding, sausage, beans, egg yoke and toast.....Yum. It is to be enjoyed, once a month is my regularity, some have it weekly. £8 to £12 is a common price. And we regularly put this in a sandwich!!
Definitely don’t need bread. Takes up stomach space. I just have more bacon.
We don't generally call it blood pudding, its usually called black pudding. Also put some oil (veg oil, or sunflower, something similar, beef dripping if you can, or lard if you want to be old school) in that pan. Or better yet cook your sausages (and maybe the bacon too) with a grill (look up what we mean by a grill in the UK, its not the same as you mean it) and don't add extra oil. Eggs should be fried in some sort of oil though, for best results.
Blood pudding is what the Scandinavians call it
I love to mix the brown sauce into the beans

Yes. Most full breakfast sandwiches are based on Bacon, egg, sausage and tomatoes ( or simply "a BEST"). However, you can add or subtract any of the other food items to your own taste as you did with the Bacon and Egg butty. A local shop in Yorkshire, England, used to sell "A gorilla filler" a massive 10 inch bread bap sandwich containing 2 portions of everything. Amazing
Yep, many years back I worked on the scoring at an Ashes match at Headingley and the local cafe outside the ground used to do a full English breakfast sandwich in a Scottie.
My youngest brother was an award-winning chef, had a fusion restaurant, his crowning achievement though was his all day breakfast at his café... voted best breakfast in South Wales.
I agree 👍 Mayim Katz from Glastonbury. Breakfast worth travelling for x🎉
💖👍
guys it's fork in the left hand & knife in your right !
I noticed something, do Americans only eat one thing at a time? Do you not construct a bite? Mark is the only one who made me smile a big smile! He made a bite trying things together about 70% of the time! Go Mark
How quickly I’ve been replaced 🥹
Cant go wrong with a bit if brown sauce on the sausage. But yea i noticed that they wasn't having a bit of everything at once. Big mistake lol
Yes, Americans tend to eat things one at a time. Even finishing the entire entree before moving on to the side dishes. Many plates in the US have dividers to keep food items separate.
@@TAYLORno1asked4 Our OG American Brit, time is ticking! Please redeem yourself because we are united in our love of orange chocolate! :D
@@macweed3358 Ikr? It makes a huge difference too [well, IMO] :D
I think that might just be the best attempt at a Full English that I've seen by an American channel, that was spot on ingredient-wise especially with fried bread which a some people replace with toast, only improvement I'd say is add a little oil or fat to the pan, it was looking a little dry at times and you can also use a little tomato ketchup at the table too, also I heard you mention tinned tomatoes, I know some people like them on their fry-up but for me it has to be fresh tomatoes fried until they get a little colour too, a nice big juicy beefsteak tomato is really delicious! I'll eat a fry-up once or twice a month at the weekend, best hangover cure on earth!
Also don't wash mushrooms, just brush the any soil off, catering shops actually sell mushroom cleaning brushes for doing this, but any clean and sterile brush will do, you want to keep them dry before frying
@@markjones127 Or just wipe with kitchen paper..
Guys the blood pudding, one of you said you can eat it on its own, well in the north of england, thats what we do
its often on a sunday, put on bars, in its state before you cook it ir fry it, its usual on a plate, cubed, with cubes of cheese, small cheese crackers and small pickled onions, its free to pick at while at the bar, and ordering drinks, in the workmans clubs on a sunday, usually every table gets a free plate of what mentioned.
Mine on a Sunday morning. I don't eat again that day btw.. Is beans, Mushrooms(Chestnut), Tomato, Then it's double all the way, Two bacon, Two Cumberland sausages, Two Black Pudding(Bury) slices, two SPAM , TWO EGGS ,TWO fried BREAD ,two toast with butter. A massive Lord Vader mug full of Typhoo.. Then a long walk out doors. note absence of hash b@stard browns..Great vlog again guys.
Black pudding off Bury market is excellent
Spam!! Not tattie, pan or soda scones? No bubble?
Knife and fork please gentlemen. The knife goes in the right hand, the fork in the left. They stay in the hands from start to finish unless eating the fried bread or toast. Instead of hash browns it should be either sliced leftover boiled potatoes fried or bubble and squeak.
Only if you’re right handed.
@@kesa39 no it is always left hand fork. Blame the knights from years ago that held their sword in the right hand for battle and then cut their meat with it. It is taught this way in etiquette classes.
@@vickytaylor9155 This is an example of where etiquette is wrong due to arrogance. Because logic says that the dominant hand should control the knife. We are not knights anymore, where the right hand thing was due to how people passed in the street, where you would need to train your right hand to be dominate even if you were left handed, because of survivability, so combat tactics not "etiquette".
@@vickytaylor9155- God help you if you & I meet for a sword battle. I'm pure left handed and my sword will definitely be in my left hand! ...

Nope. In a working class Scottish house i just used a fork and knife like everyone else without anyone telling me to.
I'm left handed, and no one ever tried to change that in school.
Ideally you want the egg yoke runny, so you can dip the sausages in it.
A fry up is my Saturday or Sunday morning treat, always good to have one a week😊
A fry up has been the cure for hangovers for decades, but only if someone else cooks it! 😂😂😂
You covered pretty much everything, I'm salivating!. Only thing I'd add (as a Scotsman) is potato scones. Swap the HP for HP Fruity too if you can find it.

Not sure if you’ve tried it but hot rice pudding with strawberry jam mixed in. Crumpets dripping with butter. Clotted cream with scones and jam.

Oh are now you talking
Soon after I was born in Plymouth, living on Dartmoor, my mum n dad used to have visits to Badger's Holt to get Devon Cream Teas. I'm going to swear as far as Devonians are concerned, and say that I prefer scones with the jam first, cream second (on top) Cornish way...sorry fellow Devonians 🤦👍

Why was the black pudding pink?
@@rosemarielee7775 Well, most of the black pudding I've ever bought looks something like that. Depends on the recipe, I guess.
It's already cooked. You're just reheating it.
It's not until it's fried that it takes on the blackness.
Keep the temperature medium high and don't mix in the same pan with wet-cured bacon.
If we all club together we could buy them some knives,if you use a fork get one with a sharp edge,similar to a cake fork.Maybe me ,but the fried bread looked more like toast (butter on it) Ideally fried bread is bread deep fried but more often cooked in the frying pan in the left over juices and oil..Blood pudding can be a bit different to the prefered black pudding,Whatever way enjoy.
They have knives, but not for cutting!
You could add some Bubble & Squeak which is basically left over vegetables & mash potato mixed together & fried.
High hopes for this as you loved the sausage bacon egg cob combos. You are all good sports
I like the beans with the sausage, and the Black pudding (blood sausage) with the yolk from the egg, and the fried tomatoes with the bacon - well done for getting the items spot on.
It's typically once a week on a Saturday before you go out on the beer
It's mostly eaten as a Sunday breakfast, by people in the UK. You can obviously eat it any time, but the long-standing tradition is Sunday mornings.
@@rikmoran3963 And a Sunday lunch too?
Always Sunday as a kid in the 80s and good hangover cure in the 90s after a pub gig night out!!!
Brits usually either have HP sauce or (Heinz) ketchup with their English Breakfast, I personally don’t have either as the baked beans provide the sauce.
You guys did really well to import legitimate UK products and cook it the English way - hats off to you guys! I’ve never been brave enough to try Black Pudding! And I always scrap the mushrooms and tomatoes off mine.
English don’t eat that breakfast every day we usually just have something quick like toast or cereal. An English Breakfast is usually a one-off now and then either down a cafe or at home often at the weekend. English Breakfasts are either cheap and greasy down a cafe (a bit like your roadside diners) or are made with really good and higher end ingredients (like Gordon Ramsay as you mentioned). I personally prefer upmarket ingredients but my husband likes his cheap and greasy.
I’m amazed in American movies that families always do a cooked breakfast for the family with bacon and syrup or pancakes, is this a standard thing?
I have a full English about once a month, but usually as a brunch or lunch at the weekend, never as a regular workday breakfast.
I will put a bit of both - tomato and brown 😋
@@mariacurtis9247 Madness, i'm surprised they let you use the Internet, in the Booby Hatch.
My favourite meal and best thing for a hangover is a full English breakfast. Glad you all enjoyed it.
Interesting they say about its nearly 12pm and they eat breakfast as 8am ect, because another name we give the classic fry up is 'All day breakfast' and we often in our house have it for tea (dinner) since its a pretty big meal when you have everything on there, Cumberland sausage, 3x bacon, 2x black pudding, 2x fried eggs, tinned tomatoes, mushrooms, beans, hash browns, toast or fried bread.
Also Black pudding is as varied as sausage is, lots of local varieties, locally it has lumps of pork fat and oats in it.
Also it's already cooked from the packet as its steamed.
Also, us true Brits certainly do eat hash browns! 😂
8:37 - Looks like your least favourite thing there was a knife!
😂
My thoughts exactly - elbows everywhere 😂
Nice job preparing one of our favourites in the UK . we certainly love our full English up in Yorkshire ..

I put the beans on the toast

Get a Large Bagette and cut one end off.
Spoon the bread out and fill with the full English.
Stuff the spooned out bread back in to seal the end.
Enjoy !
@@0utcastAussie go away now 😒 😆
Breakfast baps I’ve had is normally sausage bacon and egg in a sub roll maybe with fried mushrooms and choice of red or brown sauce.
For the mushrooms, cook them slowly in butter. I also add chopped garlic and a sprinkle of parsley. Add a very little oil to the pan before doing the fried bread and fry until it's golden. Eat it with the fried egg - it soaks up the yolk very nicely. I only have this at the weekend.
Fried garlic bread?!!..Don't let Peter Kay catch you...
@@margaretflounders8510 No, garlic mushrooms. Fry the bread in plain oil, but make sure it is good and hot before putting the bread in or it will go soggy.
I just put them in a pan with butter untill soft. Not sure about garlic flavour with a fry up.

@@BLANKSnooneaskedforI don’t think you messed it up in any way at all. Great job 👏🏻
The only advice I’d give that’d make it better is using a knife and fork so you get bits of everything in a bite.
Just moderate your heat, and use a lower heat level. Well done lads!!❤Loved it!!
Great job guys, blood pudding is Black pudding. I tend to finish it off with a knob of butter when cooking. Fried bread can also be called dipsy toast. You may not have had enough fat from the cooking so adf more fst get it hot dipbthe bread in both sides and let it fry till golden, this is NOT TOAST.
As some of you mentioned if can go on a sandwich so there would have been sliced bread or toast on the side toast is dry cooked no fat.
Buttered toast with marmalade would be the second course in a full English for a sweet finish.
Brilliant job well done, pretty much every English Cafe has an all day breakfast on the menu.
Fuel to keep a man energised in a cold damp environment like the UK.
I know you tried fish and chips before but try and get fillets of Cod or Haddock and try it again.
Then do a Cottage pie the topping creamed potato mixwd with at least 50% grated cheddar and a piece of blue stilton cheese mixed in, baked in the oven till top is browned. Serve with side of green veg of your choice and some crusty bread. Check out classic recipe Cottage pie uses minced beef carrot, onion, celery, sslt pepper, mixed herbs worcestershire sauce. Shepherds pie same but with minced lamb.
There are quite a few Greasy Spoon cafés tho DO sell an entire cooked breakfast on a sandwich - frequently, near me, called a Belly Buster.
When you come to the UK, a visit to Bury Market in Greater Manchester, is THE place to get Black Pudding. I don't even cook Bury Black Pudding it is so delicious.
There is a sandwich shop near me that sells a breakfast roll. It contains egg, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages and bacon.
It is very nice and usually does me 2 meals.
I used to live near an industrial estate and on a saturday, when the cafe was shut, a guy in a van would show up and do a breakfast bap... cost £3 - this is 2010-ish... would pop dowbn on a Saturday morning - I'd buy 1 bap, bring it home, open it up and serve it as a breakfast - for two of us!

For me, got to be tinned plum tomatoes and you need a runny egg to dip everything in!!
Cracking first go guys!! Plus, whack it all in a bread bun, it’s lush ❤
Yes plum tomatoes and runny egg can't go wrong 👌
No. Just, no. Tinned Tom's taste of tin
Tinned tomatoes are an abomination! Halved tomatoes, seasoned, a nob of butter on top and grilled is the only way. But you're right about the runny egg.
I have both tinned and fresh because I'm a greedy git.
Absolutely spot on guys you nailed it 🇬🇧all correct ingredients 👍
If you come to Stoke on Trent you could get all of that in something called an (Staffordshire) Oatcake.
Id love see them try oatcake
The best food.
I normally have a little plate with two slices of bread (Not Toasted) and butter and use that last to wipe up the left overs on the plate. All the bean juice, HP, EVERYTHING so that plate can be put back in the cabinet!! That's how clean that plate would be after.
One of the delights of the English Breakfast is all of the flavour combinations you can put together. Mmmm! Your version of the breakfast was excellent!
And I'd recommend using a bit more fat in the pan.
A tip, if you're going to fry items like the sausages - you'd have some fat in the pan just to prevent the black spots. Though I think most today probably cook items like the sausages, black pudding etc in an air fryer. The UK also has variations and lots of optional items. For example in Scotland you'd at least also have square sausage (also called lorne, steak slice etc) which is beef based, and a tattie scone. Which is essentially mashed potato mixed with some flour and rolled out to a thin layer and lightly friend. Optional Scottish items are haggis and fruit pudding (yes it's got fruit and it's fried). Northern Ireland have their Ulster fry, so will at least contain soda bread and pancakes are pretty popular too.
Growing up we always had left over potatoes sliced and fried with beef link sausages. Another favourite is bubble and squeak, it's also the leftovers but the potatoes mashed with cabbage and any leftover veg from the previous night's roast dinner. You form it into patties and... fry. I personally don't do beans, but I do like a tomato sliced in half and fried along with mushrooms. If there's plum tomato on the go I'd have that too.
You can't really go wrong, just put the breakfast items you like on a plate, cooked how you like it - and bang, that's a fry up.
Does anyone in America use a knife.
seemingly, only when they have run out of bullets :P
Well done guys. Looks like you cooked everything right!
For me it's a treat once every few months, for for a lot it is a must every morning before a hard days work. You can always spot the best "greasy spoons" by the people in there/parked outside.
Personally I go for coffee, but I guess it should be tea.
Basically you won't need lunch, and only a lite evening meal afterwards.
Full Scottish has haggis, tattie scones, blach pudding, fruit pudding, slice, links, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried egg, scrambled egg and just about anything else that'll fit in a frying pan. When we go over to Northern Ireland for the racing the breakfasts over there are something else too.
oh I definitely need haggis, tattie scone and a bit of lorne sausage!🤤
@@Graniteman69best sausage ever, no hassle sausage sandwich.
Fried Soda Bread.
North West 200?
Fried Cluttie Dumpling mate not fruit pudding. And I’ve never seen haggis on a breakfast in my life a chippie yeah not a breakfast
as a chef from scotland i think yall did great for a first time, next time, if there is a next time, start with your pan oiled and on a lower heat and 3/4 cook everything and let them finish off in the oven on a tray at a lower heat and itll give you time to cook the eggs on a low heat too and then you can plate everything up and everything will be nice and hot when eating,, bearing in mind this is a full english, us scottish folks have our own version of breakfast with square sausage and bangers and potato scones with eggs and bacon and tomato and optional haggis and white pudding as well as black pudding (blood pudd) and beans with toast or bread rolls because we love building them sandwiches... the bread rolls we use are commonly called morning rolls too so you know what to look for
You forgot fruit pudding
Tatty scones, bloody awesome.
That is proper professional cooking advice.
Can't argue with that.
Great advice especially how to get everything cooked and ready for a complete plate .
@@Invernaewhere the fruit pudding is white pudding my friend, thats what we call it in the kitchens but you are correct to state that white pudding is indeed fruit pudding like you said was missing but i did include it in the list, its just a terminology variation but im sure you understand now the terminology of the black pudding and white pudding variation buddy
Toast and coffee. Nice to see you tuck in. Tomato black pudding slice of sausage and a dip in beans with a bite of toast best combo.
Gentlemen - you have seen the light!! 👍😁🇬🇧
Except for the cutlery issue !
Cracking job boys. When you come over don't go anywhere but any little local greasy spoon (small cafe) for a full English or a BEST buttie, bacon, egg, sausage, tomato
When you cook / fry your eggs try to lift them out of the pan while the yolks are still a little runny and then when you get to eating the meal let the yolks drip over the black pudding or dip the black pudding into the yolks so that the yolks act like a sauce on the pudding.
Also try deep frying the fried bread until it’s golden and crispy
Hash browns were always one of my favourite parts of a full english growing up, dipping them in the baked bean sauce. When I used to go to tesco with my nan shopping they always served hash browns with it. I think it was around £3.50 back then.
Hash browns do not belong in a full English breakfast, they are an American invention.
Hash browns do not belong on a full English
Hash browns are pretty common, despite what people try and claim here lol, like there's some secret rule on what you can and can't add. Potato in general isn't unusual, in lots of different forms, like potato cakes, bubble and squeak, rosti's or even just cubed or sliced and fried, which was typical of a Little Chef Olympic breakfast for instance, which were hugely popular in the UK until the mid 90's when they declined. But for a long time, they were very popular and where lots of people in the UK would stop to have breakfast when on a road trip or just travelling.
@@brucewayne9699 it's crazy how big Little Chef was, branches everywhere you went, almost as common as McDonalds, then they just disappeared.
Dunno why people take offense to it so much.
I too like hash browns with breakfast. Who cares where it comes from, imo it goes really well.
I'm guessing many others enjoy it too since it's practically a staple in cafe's now.
As an Englishman, I did believe for a long time that all the beloved cousins must truly be starved of a genuine breakfast: the FULL ENGLISH!
Until I visited Georgia some years ago, and discovered an AMERICAN BREAKFAST. Oh my word!
We compete for perfection, which means we are the same!
OMD across the board. Only way to go for a fry up. Nice work fellas. Done us proud 🏴
It gives me anxiety watching people try "full" English because its never full English but for the most part you guys got it pretty good but you'll never get a true Full English without stepping on English soil to experience a true full English breakfast and the flavours that comes with it.

Can of tenants?
Maybe swop the fresh tomato with a can of Italian plumb tomatoes - the extra juice/sauce you get in the can adds to the flavour of the other items.
I'd also cook the mushrooms separately in a small pan with unsalted butter.
And add a teaspoon of oil to the frying pan/skillet to cook the sausages - it'll stop the sausage skins from burning so black (helped by frequent turning so it's just brown on the outside).
Don't forget the salt and pepper and with your KNIFE and folk, try different combinations rather than eating one thing at a time.
allow the salt n pepper, that's a you thing, how you say that and not mention brown sauce
@@flawedgenius Didn't want the push the brown sauce as well. Some prefer red. I've seen Americans trying beans on toast and English breakfasts saying the food is bland. That's why I said salt and pepper.
You can't beat a huge breakfast after a night of getting pissed. Black pudding is the greatest!
Great video and well done creating the breakfast. Can I suggest a simple Cheddar cheese & Branston pickle sandwich on white bread, followed by a sliced ham & Branston pickle sandwich and finally, a Cheshire cheese & picallili sandwich to complete the trio.
If I see a hash brown on the plate, its not an English brekkie - and i will kick a bin over in frustration.
No hash brown! Good lads, proper job.
Same here, i always complain if i see an American hash brown on our English breakfasts. Its not a traditional part of it at all. 🏴
Yeah but hash browns are mint though
@@diskopartizan0850 In your opinion.
@@Paul-hl8yg yes in my opinion what else would it be hahaha. You can't seriously tell me that you don't like fried bits of spud with crispy outside and soft middle. It's amazing. I bet you secretly order a side plate of hash browns in the cafe and eat them when no one is watching. Very naughty.
You guys did a great job here. I'd happily eat that plate, good work.
