    Breakfast roll guy's just aren't the same anymore. 3 young bucks in front of me, dressed head to toe in Snickers gear ordering rolls but insisting on the fat being cut off the rashers and low fat spread on granary rolls.
    Bloody wimps.

    I worked in a restaurant where this was on the menu. 2 fried eggs, 2 scrambled eggs, 3 jumbo saussies, 2 rashers, black and white pudding, beans, mushrooms, fried potatoes, soda farl, potato bread, toast, brown bread and a pot of yea or coffee.

    One food I miss from home. Tesco used to do them, but haven't seen them in a while now.

    I know they're not that difficult to make (buttermilk flour and baking soda) but i can never get the time.

    Filled soda (sausage, egg, bacon and tomato) in a slightly toasted soda with butter and brown sauce for breakfast.

    Couldn't beat it with a big thorny one.

    I love mushrooms on a roll with the dough scooped out. I always feel really embarrassed asking for that but jaysus -onrale

    I HATE mushrooms in a breakfast roll. It turns it way too greasy for my liking.

    Had to google it, but have to admit it looks delicious.

    I love breakfast rolls in theory, but i make them myself now, just couldnt find anywhere that does them how i like them.

    Occasionally I'll grab one from declans on Bolton St though, magic.

    Vile things. A cheap and stodgy roll filled with even cheaper ingredients. Withered looking sausages that have been under lights since they were heated up in an oven 5 hours earlier. Pudding without any of the flavour that makes good black pudding such a beautiful occasional treat. Then drown it in sugary sauce and eat while walking. Yuck.

    You are going to the wrong place for it.

    I think I'll go to the butchers and get proper saussies and proper rashers. I have fresh eggs....clonakilty pudding....maybe mushrooms sauted in garlic butter...nice fresh french baguette

    And tea from a pot.

    I don't like ones you buy on deli counters but I do like ones made at home with soft white rolls, Kerrygold, Clonakilty White pudding, superquinn saussies, and a runny egg. Only delish.

    Won't be having one of them for a while. Loada shyte.

    But that's not a breakfast roll,its a rasher sambo,no matter how you dicky it up.I do like the idea of a beer with a fry though,reminds me of great drinking holidays with the lads along the Spanish Costas during my teens.In most places a pint of beer is/was included in the price of the breakfast

    I'll also substitute the rashers with Aldi Black Forest ham - grills in very little time, great smoked bacon flavour & none of that weird white gloop emanating from it.

    Has to be a soft roll. Crispy rolls just ruin it.

    Better yet, lob it all into regular white bread. That's the business.

    Yum, yum, I'm only getting up now and have a craving for a breakfast roll. I'll make do with what I've got in the fridge, egg, pudding, mushroom sandwich. That can work?

    Its a breakfast bap over here. They're so funny with their quirky little ways

    Nothing better than a fully loaded breakfast bap from a greasy spoon!

    In the UK they don't do rolls from the deli in supermarkets/petrol stations, it's weird. I remember picking up a roll and going to the deli in ASDA and asking the fella to pack it up with cocktail sausages and bacon, he looked at me like I had 2 heads. Also the same day I found out that to most of the world "sambo" is actually a racial slur and not a sandwich.

    Yeah, forget about spar and centra. But proper greasy spoon cafes can do nice ones

    Hate eggs, beans or mushrooms on them. Just puddings, sausage and rasher on butter for me.

    The more packed the better and either mustard or nothing. Ketchup shouldn't be let near a breakfast roll.

    Agreed, although I hate being looked at like I have 3 heads in the shop whenever I ask for a bit of mustard in it - you'd swear I asked if they had any grey poupon! :eek:

    Brown sauce is also acceptable in small doses - too many places lorry it on and it ruins it because all you can taste is the brown sauce. Waste of a good roll if you ask me!

    Forget breakfast rolls. Give me a crispy roll with butter, mayonnaise
    ( sometimes taco sauce instead of mayonnaise), mushrooms, cheese and a hot chicken fillet any day. If I could get away with having one of these every day, I would have two! But I haven't had one in so long.

    I do like breakfast rolls, but I prefer to make them myself. The rashers are usually too salty in a deli and the sausages too spicy. Superquinn sausages on a roll would be lovely. And you can't beat a buttery white pudding sandwich.

    I've feckin seen that in quite a few shops - why bother getting a breakfast roll if you're going to be all health conscious about it? Just get something else or fcuk off :mad:

    Declans is probably the best of the bunch in Dublin - can't eat them too often, it's heart attack town stuff but by christ they're tasty!

    If any of you are working around grafton St, Boland's near the grafton lounge do lovely old school breakfast rolls. I haven't had one in ages as I wouldn't normally eat that heavy in work.
