    Red.
    If i had to. I usually use neither though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,006 ✭✭✭MistyCheese


    No sauce. But I'm a recent devotee of the "rasher Sandwich" (In the UK referred to as the Bacon Sarnie). Fukcakes, it's delicious!

    Perhaps "gravy" should also be considered as an option?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Brown. Fairly sure red is illegal in some counties.
    If it isn't, it should be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,806 ✭✭✭✭KeithM89_old


    Mayonnaise.... :)

    yeah but in all fairness you probably do slide the sausage sandwich in & out of your mouth suggestively, making mmmm.....,mmmm..... noises before you actually eat it?

    Brown sauce for rasher sandwiches, and cooked ham. Red for most most other things.

    Mayonaise is evil!! and should be sent back to the depths of hell where it came from!!

    On topic, neither, just a small bit of butter, maybe a white pudding spread over it too :)

    Lean grilled bacon in small portions is healthy.

    Or better yet a terminator, like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Try'n to play me out like as if my name was Sega.

    Streaky rashers on wholemeal brown bread with butter and brown sauce (preferably A1 steak sauce which I can't get in this god-forsaken country).

    A1 steak sauce, Christ I miss that stuff. Otherwise it's chef ketchup.

    Um - sorry but mayonnaise is the only possible thing to put on a bacon sandwich and anybody who says otherwise is a puppy-killer.

    Where is the "None" or "Other" option?

    Poll lacks alternative options, so fails.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,196 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    There was an episode of Fat Families on Sky1 yesterday where this couple were eating ketchup and peanut butter sandwiches..

    .. and all the "Sally-Jesse-Raphael" looking presenter could say was "look how much calories these contain".

    Yeah, THEY'RE EATING PEANUT BUTTER AND KETCHUP... TOGETHER.. ON A SAND-WICH. I'd be more worried about their mental well-being than their weight.

    In McD's in Tallaght getting a breakfast meal a good while ago (I'm not proud, I was hungry). So I'm waiting on my coffee and guy behind me gets served.

    Him: "bacon roll please"
    Server: "ok, what sauce"
    Him: "Brown"
    Server: <searches for a bit> "We've got no brown, red do?"
    Him: "Ah, no. You're fine" <walks out>

    Shockin'.

    I had a honey and cheese and peanut butter sandwich a while ago. It was an amazing moment in my life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    I don't see why people have to go and spoil the taste of meat by lashing ketchup on it.

    Eat meat for the taste.

    My cousins were never allowed brown sauce when they were younger, as they got waspy after it, and used to fight a lot.

    Whats the proper name for brown sauce, seeing as red sauce is ketchup?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Music Moderators, Politics Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 22,360 CMod ✭✭✭✭Dravokivich


    Generally prefer no sauce.. the butter melting in the sambo should be enough...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    Red sauce and brown sauce are both disgusting.

    Some grated cheese is all you need to make a poper rasher sandwich. (and, er, rashers and bread, of course...WHITE BREAD....toasting optional...)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,078 ✭✭✭✭LordSutch


    For anybody who's lived outside this state, the use of the word 'Sambo' takes on a whole different meaning. Was outside a Dublin City pub (Ballsbridge) a few years ago and there was a blackboard outside saying "Sambo's upstairs" I nearly spilt my pint laughing with some English friends, they were stunned, I was in hysterics . . . :D

    With brown sauce, makes it even more non PC :D :pac: :P

    Just butter and bread.

    Damn I'm hungry now :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,785 ✭✭✭KungPao


    Rasher Sambos. Sounds like a Mexican boyo. Nailz Sanchez, Deco Hernandez, Anto Fernandez....all the boyos.

    Anyway, sauce? never. Rasher burnt to a crisp, loads of real butter on white bread, washed down with very strong tea with very little milk, and one spoon of sugar.

    Perfection.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭jackiebaron


    The rasher sandwich is a sacred entity and should be revered as such. All sauces have their place in the grand scheme of things.

    If you've ever been to America then you will have tried a deli sandwich and the ones that come on a baquette-style roll are called "heros". Now these come in all varieties....ham & cheese, pastrami, roast beef, whatever, and mayonnaise is de rigeur on them....reason being there is so much damn meat on them that they'd be sawdust dry without it. So this is the only place for mayonnaise. Otherwise it's Satan's cum that should be banned and anyone who puts it on a rasher sandwich should be shot with a ball of their own sh!t.

    Again an american breakfast sandwich is basically streaky bacon, fried egg and cheese on a bap-style roll and ketchup belongs on this.

    Now...the Irish rasher sandwich is sacrosanct. The Brits have it on non-toasted bread. Fools!

    The Irish rasher sandwich must be served on toasted Brennan's sliced pan. The toast is smeared with Kerrygold butter and the two (grilled or fried) rashers are placed in the 69 position between the slices. Which brings me to the sauce. Ketchup is a fcuking NO-NO as is aforementioned mayonnaise.
    Chef brown sauce is tolerated as is HP brown sauce. However I personally feel that Chef brown sauce only belongs as a dollop on a full Irish brekkie or a bacon and cabbage dinner. The toasted rasher sandwich should really have no condiments applied and the toast must reveal the hand-print in the butter slice from being pressed down.
    I have it this way.....but I also deviate from this arrangement sometimes by smearing enough Coleman's English mustard on it to give me a nose bleed.
