Im one of those annoying people that has to have a bit of everything on their fork.

Beans first, then the yoke. Fried bread last to clean the plate with. It's been ages since I had a full English.

Toast into the egg or beans first.

bacon, mushrooms and brown sauce folded into toast as a sandwich first.

I think it can vary what I have a taste of first.
If I do fancy any sauce it will be brown if having beans but red without beans.
Although if I have a breakfast butty or toastie and I fancy sauce on it will always be brown.

I went into a cafe local to me a few weeks ago and asked for 2 toast and 2 boiled eggs. No word of a lie, when they brought it to the table, they'd put 2 slices of toast on a plate and 2 boiled eggs in a tea mug.

It turns out, they'd never heard of boiled eggs with the tops cut off with toast to dip into them! I was flabbergasted.

Fried bread. First thing I do when I get home from Europe is go to Morrisons and have 4 piece of fried bread, 3 sausages, 3 bacon, 2 fried eggs, beans and a milky coffee. Then I know I am home.

DCWat wrote:That's a risky manoeuvre JohnMac. Attacking the egg first risks serious yolk spillage on to the rest of the plate and unless you have a solid sausage defence, it's likely to mix with the beams and tomato.

I'd leave it until last to avoid collateral damage to the beans and tomato, although you do run the risk of a cold egg!

I tend to isolate, scoop and then destroy it in a single gob full

Another vote for sausage and brown!

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 7:02 pm

Always start off by dipping into the egg or eggs, then eat the rest with bits of the egg. I can get some really good full Englishes here on the Costa Del Sol, thanks to the tourist trade.

Flatline · Post by **Flatline** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 7:31 pm

Get all the condiments on sharpish,HP etc.Then the beans must be eaten immediately before they go cold,toast or a sausage straight into the egg.After that everything's fair game and just sick back and feel how big your belly is.

This is how I'd start: sausage, and, if included, hash brown dipped in until the yolk is done in. I put the white on the toast and cover it with some of the beans,

Barry_Chuckle · Post by **Barry_Chuckle** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 7:40 pm

Start with the fried bread which must be covered in beans. Must be "Fruity" HP Brown sauce

Looking at the comments, its not eating, it's a well planned military operation!

Squarepusher · Post by **Squarepusher** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 8:16 pm

Always beans first to get them out of the way. Don't know why I even bother having them tbh. They feel more like a pre-breakfast obligation than a part of the actual breakfast.

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 8:19 pm

I haven't had one for six years. I don't miss them, either.

While on holiday in Cape Town earlier this year. Nearly every morning we used to go for a full breakfast at a shopping mall, which cost about £2 each. Surprisingly a full breakfast there includes chips, which was odd to have at the beginning, but we soon got used to eating them.

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 8:31 pm

I always used to have chips with mine. Archway Cafe and The Workman's Cafe, both in Archway.

yTib · Post by **yTib** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 8:33 pm

chips with a full english diminishes the englishness.

for the past fifteen years i've been festoonering my english breakfasts with tobasco/chili sauce.

the line is drawn thus.

Squarepusher · Post by **Squarepusher** » Sat Jun 10, 2017 8:37 pm

I can't even imagine having chips for breakfast.

My husband also puts chopped chilies on as well as tabasco. It's a travesty.

Egg-good for you
Tomatoes-""

Really, the last thing that should be on your mind when wolfing down a FEB
is whether it's "good for you" or not. That's NOT why we eat them, for God's sake.

Get a grip.
