  1. The boys in my house turned up their noses when I told them this was lunch. Not anymore, they loved them! I couldn't find the british/irish bacon so used a good large sliced type. Made for PAC fall 2009.
     
  2. An absolute classic! I must admit to an adjustment due to personal preferences- british bacon is a different and larger cut than American bacon, so I usually use 3 slices per sandwich. I loved the idea of using the bread to mop up the juices. A super sandwich- thanks BBCFan!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

From my name you can tell I am C-R-A-Z-Y for British telly and films. I'm not British, I just wish I was :-( My 4 passions are: British Film & Telly, Traveling, Cooking/new recipes and DRINKING!!!! (I quit smoking recently otherwise that would have been my 5th passion) I tend to go through extreme food and product "Phases" for example: for 2 months I'll be in an "India" phase where I ONLY eat food and use products from India . The month after that might be my "Dutch" phases, where EVERYTHING has to come from the Netherlands, etc.... Sometimes I even DRESS the part - Like when I was in my "German Phase" I actually bought a few dirndls (and WORE them - in public!!! In all honesty, they are cery cute dirndles, not the hard-core grandma style) - the German phase what my longest - it lasted and entire year and made me broke buying all my groceries and milk from Germany (from www.lila.de --just in case you're interested) The shipping cost MORE than the actual food sometimes. But I HAD to have my SonnenBasserman Schlemmergulasch! LOL! Another time, I would only by my groceries at any of the 4 Polish grocery stores in my city, that was my least favorite phase because Polish food isn't that tasty, and it SMELLS! . I think that was my shortest phase, lasted 2 weeks, but I still by this yummy apple & mint juice drink there and Paprika flavored chips/crisps. I feel so embarressed admitting that here - and hope I'm not the only one who does that. Gawd, I hope my mother does read this and see what I'm spending all my money on! So, no matter what "phase" I might be in Friday night is ALWAYS "British Night" - no matter what!
