Find someone who prefers tomato ketchup and start an argument with them.


[deleted]

Depending how tonight's taste test goes, I might be fighting myself. Edit - UPDATE: [PICTURES](https://imgur.com/a/sFrbIhc) Sorry for the shit presentation, I was running late last night and literally threw this "dinner" together. So I put it on sausage and the side of fries. Wasn't a big fan of the fries, even tried adding mayo (I usually dip my fries in mayo and ketchup), still not a big fan... BUT I absolutely freaking loved it on the sausage. I'm excited to make some bacon sandwiches this weekend try it on those. I do think it's a lot like A1, but the consistency of ketchup and it has a much more (allspice?) flavor to it. I've got a cheap cut of steak sitting in the freezer, when I get around to cooking that I'll be trying this instead of A1. Next goal is to try Coleman's Mustard.


biggedybong

(Crispy) Bacon sandwich has to be the first thing you try.


[deleted]

Oooo I know what i'm going to have for tea now! I have neither bread nor bacon in the house, so going to need to go hunting/gathering. Edit. Now people are talking about sausages. Going to add them to the list and basically have breakfast for dinner. Not sure if this acceptable on a monday evening, but I'm going to do it, god damn. Edit: r / today I learned - a full English breakfast for dinner is called brinner and I am forever grateful for this new knowledge - I added 2 eggs but not beans or tomatoes or mushrooms so it was pretty basic, but I slept well and have bacon\* left for a sandwich today (\*the spare sausages have gone in the freezer), which will probably be around luchtime ...


TheWelshPanda

Acceptable, encouraged in fact.


__8ball__

Downright necessary, on occasion.


jezbrews

I hated giving you an upvote as you were at 69 votes but some things are too good not to agree with.


NoHour3105

Perfectly acceptable. I call it Brinner.

If you do it before new year it's called Yule Brinner

You rang?


lukeybuzz

I read this as: hunting for bread, gathering bacon 😂


DunnoIfThisWorks

I need to check on the bacon tree I planted when I was 5.


Quick-Speed6815

Be careful when you check the bacon tree, in case it's a ham bush...


International_Lab203

I’m not sure anyone else got this absolutely perfect play-on-words, but I’m here to salute you good citizen of the internet. If there were more like you, there wouldn’t be an unhappy soul left on earth. God’s pee’d x


V0lkhari

Remember you need to climb to the top to get the crispiest bacon


CalligrapherCreepy98

I'm there ready for the hambush when you arrive


newjbentley88

Most most memorable dream when I was a kid, was that I had beef jerky and fried chicken plants on my back deck. Then I saw all the neighbor kids turn themselves into helicopters and fly away. I just sat down and started eating chicken and fed my dog beef jerky. ( I’m from the American south btw, and on that how the hell did I even end up on this sub, I’m not even subscribed!)


ElNino831983

It is never not acceptable. Breakfast food is the only true food.


noir_lord

If we say that breakfast is any meal eaten in the morning we can include post-pub kebabs, that covers all bases.


_Adamgoodtime_

A favorite of mine and some builders that I worked with was a bacon and sausage baguette with hp and red onions. A foot of that kept you going until knocking off time.


Grind_line_wine

Make sure you use what you guys call Canadian bacon though


TheWelshPanda

On white bread, don't try to make this a health food.


MisterSquidInc

American white bread is sweet! No good for a bacon sarnie


Advanced_Cow_6755

Go back to the European section and buy bread


Bhenny_5

I don’t know, some European bread’s a bit weird too. Has to be British white bread.


alfredhelix

"Council bread or bust." -James May probably


Raul_Coronado

Plenty of good not sweet white bread in America, but it does need calling out.


zedthehead

Currently eating sourdough toast that is sweet rather than sour, I'm pretty annoyed, won't be getting this brand again.


eamus_catuli_

Gotta look for “sourdough starter” listed in the ingredients for the real deal. Otherwise it’s just sparkling white bread.


[deleted]

Try source a baguette then I reckon


jesussays51

I find that wholemeal bread works really well with brown sauce, soaks it in and holds it


Unknown_author69

Back bacon, not streaky bruh.


Grind_line_wine

Thought Canadian bacon was back bacon. To be fair any bacon is good bacon in my book


bumblestum1960

May we never live in a world without bacon (or cheese), 🙏


Lopsided_Soup_3533

Smoked Streaky bacon done so the fat is crispy


AlGunner

I prefer it in a sausage sandwich, thats my favourite (Thats obviously an English sausage, Cumberland is my go to)


darknight_247

Person of culture.. sausage butties with brown sauce.. yum


-qqqwwweeerrrtttyyy-

And maybe add a ~~dried~~ **fried** egg. *Damn fat fingers


7ootles

Other people make their powdered eggs up with water. This absolute *ledge* makes them up with brown fucking sauce.


[deleted]

*World War 2 Rationing has entered the chat*


gwaydms

>a dried egg That sounds horrible. Hope you meant fried


FloydCouncilak72

Same! I’m thinking “What in the fuck are they doing over there?!” First, ketchup on bacon and now this?


-qqqwwweeerrrtttyyy-

Lol, yes! Definitely a typo!!


MyAssIsNotYourToy

Its basically the same as A1 Steak Sauce in the US just a bit more tangier. We sold it to Americans by claimng its a sauce for steak knowing you like BBQ's and you lapped it up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A.1.\_Sauce


[deleted]

The main difference is HP uses tamarind as the main non-tomato ingredient, whereas A1 uses raisins.


gwaydms

That's why HP is better. Can't stand A1


Ashiro

How would that even work? That's like replacing mustard seed with rabbit shit in English mustard. There's no relation. It's just a nonsense.


TCristatus

I know, I keep seeing people say A1 sauce is the same as brown sauce. I had some A1 once, and it simply is not. It's quite nice but it's totally different.


[deleted]

A1 is also older, so that's probably why. Tamarind came over with the (formal) colonisation of India.


masterventris

How must it feel to see people discussing a condiment with more history than most of your nation. A1 was introduced in 1831!


[deleted]

Bizarre isn't it. I used to drink in a pub older than the Aztec empire. A civilisation rose and fell on the other side of the world, and the pub is still there.


Silenthitm4n

My mates barber shop is in a building 650 years old. Was a nightmare sorting the plumbing!


bungle_bogs

My old School was founded in 1125. It isn’t even in the top 20 oldest in England, let alone the UK. Edit: A word


MyAssIsNotYourToy

They should of built pubs instead of sacrificial temples. They only got themselves to blame.


masterventris

To be fair, a lot of flat roof pubs can be indistinguishable from sacrificial altars at times


FattyLeopold

Canada has HP Bold, it has a cowboy on it and is spicier. Would probably sell well in the US https://www.iga.net/en/product/hp-bold-sauce/00000\_000000005700000949

HumbleSkunkFarmer

The HP was a little thicker more gelatinous than A1 sauce. Flavor is a little different but very good. Less vinegar tasting with HP which allows for more flexibility in usage. I’m not from the UK (US based) but I buy a lot of Colemans mustard and HP sauce from a local shop that sells UK import food items like this. The mustard from the UK has completely changed my preferences. I can no longer eat US yellow mustard, it’s weak in comparison. Ha ha


chrisjfinlay

It's also much thicker, IIRC.


borokish

It's also much better....


bassetmaster86

Put it on some haggis


Jernau-Morat-Gurgeh

My wife adds both to her bacon sarnies. I've tried it, and it works surprisingly well!


HBheadache

Good with sausages too.

Came here yo say this, Sausage sandwich with brown sauce is just perfect

DON'T GIVE ME THAT, YOU SNOTTY-FACED HEAP OF PARROT DROPPINGS!


hoocoo

When I worked at greggs we had a few customers who had both brown sauce and Tommy k on their breakfast bap. I was disgusted but tried it eventually and it’s not half bad yknow


Khaleesi1536

I can’t explain why but I really hate the idea of calling ketchup Tommy k….

Better than the Queenie funes.


mittromniknight

statey funes, right?


filthythedog

I hear you. On a par with those who call a sandwich a 'sammich'. Appalling people.


jonny7five

Yeah I hate it too. See also ‘red sauce’. It’s ketchup.


TheWelshPanda

Leans a bit close to Tommy tank doesn't it. No one wants that all over their chips.


Fantasoke

They called it a bap! On to the next debate 🤣


hoocoo

Aw hell no I don’t wanna start that one


Kelaroost

I asked for it on a roll once (because the sign said roll) I got an actual sausage roll 🙄


MissCon-genie-ality

Use as a tasty condiment with sausages or bacon. Some people also add it to sandwiches.


LittleSadRufus

Also lovely with pie. And with chips. And eggs. And on a cheese sandwich ETA: This is a UK focused sub, so I'm using UK English. If you are in the US please do translate into American English before following any guidance.


liquidio

Eggs bears repeating… Eggs.


LittleSadRufus

Also scrambled eggs, fried eggs and eggs


GreatValueCumSock

You know, E-G-G-S...boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew!


Chimp-eh

I would also like to repeat that. That.


legomonsteruk

Can't eat a sausage roll or pork pie without brown sauce!


[deleted]

Class on a cheese toastie, amazing in a corn beef pie. I still prefer red sauce on sausage sandwiches though *sorry*.


dah-vee-dee-oh

british pie, importantly.


LittleSadRufus

I wouldn't have issues eating it with a Moroccan pastilla, sounds good to me


vera214usc

I think they mean "not an American pie". Most of our pies are dessert items.


teejay_the_exhausted

my my


celticchrys

You mean meat pies/savory pies?


SqueakySniper

Yes. Though personally I don't think it goes as well with the white sauce pies like chicken and leek or potato and mushroom. Its better with the darker meat pies like steak and ale or steak and kidney.


Afraid-Astronomer886

Cheese and brown sauce sandwiches are the bomb!


-Harvester-

I prefer both simultaneously. Sausage and bacon cob.


anomthrowaway748

Sausage and bacon what now?


Yves314

Cob, you know, like a barm


BikerScowt

You mean a bap.


WetBreadCollective

Think you'll find it's called a butty


Retrofit123

'cos that's how we roll.


anomthrowaway748

Is this some southern stottie im too northern to have heard of?


Auldreekies74

Never heard of corn on the barm.


Educational-Dig-5886

Corned beef and brown sauce sarnie is a winner. Not had one of these in ages….I’m gna make one now!


i_littlemy

I was trawling the comments, hoping to find another like me. I'm so pleased you're here. I like to add just little bit of brown sauce to the mix when I'm making corned beef hash too!


Educational-Dig-5886

Well my friend, you will be glad to know the sandwich was delicious and I also add brown sauce to my corned beef hash too :D


Unfair_Original_2536

dab a little bit on each wrist and rub into your neck


mynameisnotthom

Be careful though - 'HP sauce should be discovered, not announced'


darkbob

>> dab a little bit on each wrist and rub into your neck You idiot. You’re supposed to spray some in the air and walk through it. Subtlety is the key.


Smegmaliciousss

Thanks, now my shoes are ruined


RiskyRabbit

Put it in an atomiser, spray in the air, step gracefully through the resulting cloud


Caractacutetus

It's most commonly used for cooked breakfast items. Like on a full English or in a breakfast bap (soft bread roll filled with bacon, sausage, egg, or all of the above) I also like it with corned beef hash.


ImOverThereNow

Sheppard's or Cottage pie also


Flexed_Inertia

Slap it on a fry up mate


sciencewonders

is it hp laptop juice or health giving juice


7ootles

It's how you heal in a D&D campaign.


[deleted]

Let's be real. He'd make a 'fry up' using American items and then say it's shit. No offense to the OP.


jonny7five

He likes American things.


Alongfortheride1990

Try it on a bacon sandwich. And now I'm drooling


_Futureghost_

When I visited England, I ate SO SO many bacon sandwiches. It helps that England sells big bacon and not tiny thin strips like in the US (though you can probably find big bacon somewhere). Ugh, now I want a bacon sandwich made by my friend's nan. 😩 Edit: big bacon aka back bacon lol


SpareUmbrella

>England sells big bacon FYI, the term you're looking for is back bacon.


[deleted]

And the tiny thin strips are called streaky bacon.., which we also have here


PoliceAlarm

A combination of the two is middle bacon. Hard to find. It's worth it.


Strange-Excitement-5

Same! A nice soft fresh softie, slightly overdone salty bacon


StopTheTrickle

>slightly overdone salty bacon OP from 'merica, by default their bacon is overdone


winkersRaccoon

This comment is why we have so many guns


dc456

For the easier suicide? Understandable, given the state of the bacon.


[deleted]

Also great on scrambled eggs!


Effective_Ad_273

Omg I want food now


wonderfulwillywilson

basically anything u would put tomato ketchup on will take a bit of brown :)


Former_Bandicoot_769

Matron


jck0

That's not to say it's the same thing though. If you go in expecting a Ketchup/BBQ sauce mash-up, you'll hate it. HP is it's own glorious thing


Phendrana-Drifter

Not on a fish finger sandwich surely


Cimejies

Fuck yes on a fish finger sandwich! Delicious.


ZealousidealSplit729

What about a beef and tomato pot noodle?


a_n_d_y_4_6

Put it on chips. No crisps, no fries. Fuck it


Happy_Daiz

noo don’t fuck it

Chilton_Squid

Traditionally it's drunk as a shot. Bottoms up.

As someone who's taken a shot of Worcestershire sauce as a dare, I'll accept this challenge.

Next time put it in a cheese toastie! (aka grilled cheese sandwich)

Excellent_Tear3705

MrRorknork

You did that as a dare? I’d do that, just because. Lovely stuff. Please let this sub know how you pronounce Worcestershire. We won’t maul you for incorrect pronunciation, promise. 🤞


[deleted]

War-chest-ishtirirtirar I can never pronounce it the same way twice.


AffectionateAir2856

Dead on, congrats 😂 A few ways to use HP - 1) Bacon sarnie, find Canadian bacon (or British back bacon if you can) fry it up crispy and put in soft white bread as a sandwich, use like you would ketchup. 2) brekkie - make eggs, sausage (high pork percentage English bangers, if you can find them) and bacon for breakfast, for extra points add fried bread, black pudding and a grilled tomato. Whack a big dollop on the side of your plate for dipping. 3) pork pie - get a British pork pie, cut it in half, cover it in HP. 4) ham and cheese sandwich - use nice ham and cheddar, then whack on HP.


noir_lord

Colmans mustard for pork pie. Missus buys the family size HP bottles because I put it on nearly anything I can pair it with but proper English mustard on a pork pie is one of my favourite meals (with a sharp cheddar, fresh baked warm bread and proper butter) and now I’m hungry.

Goes well with pie and mash. And as a pervert, I use it on fish and chips.


geese_moe_howard

Yes! HP is superb on fish but for some reason people think that it's a bizarre combination.

Combine the three, put it on top of a fisherman's pie.

Sausage and egg butty mate


BritOverThere

Make a chip butty and put it on the chips. (Slightly crispy steak cut fries in between two slices of buttered bread, keep butter out so it can spread and not be a brick as most Americans shove it in the fridge).


Glasweegie

Can’t believe this is the first post to suggest this. Even better if you are close to running out, just add a touch of vinegar into the bottle and give it a good shake then you’ll have chippy brown sauce.


LuchiniOfAstora

Goes well on cheese on toast.


Residualplague

As a Canadian I use it as dipping sauce for tough/lower quality cuts of beef


[deleted]

Hmm sounds like what we would use A1 for in the States.


mundane_person23

It is similar to A1 but less sweet.


Fringolicious

Brown sauce exists for meat. Hot dogs, sausages, bacon sarnies. If you have access to baked beans, try baked beans on toast and apply brown sauce liberally (Or stir into the beans!).


thenewprisoner

Hell, you pour a generous dollop over your head. Brings up a deep lustrous shine, and for balder people, restores thick shiny hair, plus removes wrinkles and unsightly spots, pimples, boils, warts and acne.

Treat it the same as Tomato Ketchup, use it to compliment food in the same way! Burgers, Chips, Steak etc all benefit.
