1) Lamb
2) Beef
3) Pork
4) Gammon
5) Chicken
6) Turkey

I think swap Pork and Beef for 2-3.
Chicken for Gammon .
On the veg front Roasts,Mash , cauliflower, Brocilli, carrots,leeks,peas or green beans .
Stuffing and Lashings of gravy .
It's a very rare treat for me these days lol.

Oh roasted parsnips.

Brussels sprouts with honey do need to go on any roasting lists.

Cut out gammon altogether and you'd be bang on.

Beef but it has to be roasted to perfection.
Preferably accompanied by roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding with veggies.
A glass of wine with it wouldn't hurt.

Not a fan. I’ll eat them but most of the time when you eat them out somewhere it’s bland shite with no seasoning. Not even a hint of garlic. If the main flavour is coming from the gravy you are off to a bad start for me.

Beef/Chicken/Pork/Lamb/Turkey in that order

Then must have sides:
- Yorkshires
- cauliflower cheese
- cheddar mash
- lots of veg


Hungry now. Anyone know a carvery that delivers?

Not sure what their delivery area is, but this is in the next village to me, near Evesham!
Incidentally, reputed to be the only pub in the world to be named after asparagus (Gras in the local dialect) - they even have a separate asparagus menu at this time of year!

Me and the missus agree that our favourite changes to pretty much whatever we've had that week!
But she really is the queen of roasts - used to run and chef in pubs, and her's was the best pub roast i've ever had. She normally does about 7 veg at home, and her gravy is the talk of our friends and relatives!

But i reckon you have to go a long way to beat a decent bit of roast beef - rib would be my favourite.

Love cauli cheese, but goes best of all with a grilled gammon steak and buttery jacket spud.
A bit of naked cauliflower with a roast is a thing of beauty - and a leek gratin?
We've recently discovered braised or roast fennel, which goes REALLY well with pork. It comes in our weekly variety box from the local growers.

Same as, it is a staple in my family.

Quite frankly I'd prefer the staples! Can't stand cauliflower cheese. Not a big fan of cauliflower, love cheese but somehow the addition makes the cauliflower worse.

Mind you I love chips and cheese but cheesy chips are something I just don't get.

It's a very underrated combination. Cauli cheese with a roast is a must in our house. Proper home made cheese sauce though. None of this shop bought crap.

I was put off cauliflower when I used to work at a holiday camp. I moved out of the awful barracks within a week but we were allowed free lunches. The guy I shared with that one week on Sunday put gravy on his dinner and then salad cream on top which he mushed up his cauliflower with

It was - the camp was full of scousers and someone actually tried to nick the curtains of my chalet one night while I was sleeping there - not that I’m stereotyping
