Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

That looks amazing, Rachel... nice add with the sausage.

Thanks, John. I couldn't bring myself to eat that many carbohydrates without some protein and greens on the plate. The second half of the sandwich was eaten with all food groups piled between the roll and it was fantastic!

That's why I had a side of burger with mine.

Indeed Happy Yorkshire Day. Here’s my chip butty. I used like a 12 grain bread to help make up for the thick frosting of kerry gold butter and mayonnaise slathered atop each slice. Then I dusted it with some garlic salt and pepper. I didn’t have any HB sauce on hand so I used some A1 sauce very sparingly. Then as mentioned I used the trifecta of fried and frozen potato products…tater tots, wrinkle cut and waffle cut pommes frites. It came out great. I think what I liked the most was the butter flavor cut through the mayo like my lambsfoot knife through this butty and then the sublime taste and different textures of the potato products partied in my mouth. I have always been a catsup and french fry guy. I might go mayo now. Thumbs up on the chip butty.

I'd say all the effort paid off, it looks amazing!!!

Although I knew it would no longer be a traditional chip butty, when I looked at your picture I thought that it would be great with the sausage and slaw piled on the bun too

Happy Yorkshire Day Jack, and all Guardians celebrating too

Happy Yorkshire Day, Guardians!

If that lady could make a chip butty in her car with Whataburger fries, I figured I had no excuses. I went to the store, looking for frozen chips to put in the air fryer. "Steak fries" are what I think are the closest thing here in The States, but I couldn't find any. They had shoestring potatoes, crinkle cut sweet potatoes, all manner of shapes of tater tots, but no steak fries. I wanted to go traditional this first time.

I settled on sliced new potatoes, roasted until crispy. Not traditional chips, but I did get the good butter and Hendersons, so I think I did alright. Paired with a sausage and some fresh made cole slaw, it was a fabulous lunch:

I've been the beneficiary of Jack's generosity too many times to enter the Yorkshire Day Giveaway for myself, but if it's okay, I'd like to enter for Crazy Canuck . It seems fitting, in light of his father's coincidental butty experience:

That looks great r8shell ! Appreciate the thought as well.

I don't know why, but we had never tried a Chip Butty before Decided it was time to correct that this weekend, and participate in Jack's challenge.

Christina went to the grocery store on a special mission, with a really short list. Two russet potatoes and a bag of soft Portuguese rolls

We've had an old fryer in the cupboard from my parents that we've never used, but figured we'd see if it still worked. It's probably at least 30 years old, and hasn't been used in 29 Filled it up to the line with some vegetable oil, cut up the spuds into nice thick chips and gave 'er a whirl!

Look at these beauties

Slathered way too much butter on the rolls and piled on more chips than we could safely stack. Added some Yorkshire flair courtesy of Jack for a photo op

Had some Hendersons and Ketchup standing ready if needed, but we both ended up eating it as is. Gotta say, that Chip Butty was wonderful, dripping butter and all

All in all, we learned a couple of things. We really like Chip Butties, and we have a working deep fryer

 

[JohnDF]

Looks DELICIOUS!

 

[Fodderwing]

Killer shot, Dwight. Magnifico covers!

Thank you Harvey.

Love that pic Dwight, those covers are incredible

Thank you Jack.

Well Guardians everything appears in order. Inspection went through with no issues. As long as the appraisal comes back good I will be packing up the wife and dogs to move into a home of our own come early September.

That's awesome Pete!

Happy Yorkshire Day all. I'm fixing to whip up a chip butty.

 

[JohnDF]

Super cool armadillo.

I thought that gravy was mayonnaise at first glance.

 

[JohnDF]

That looks very Southern... I like it.

 

[JohnDF]

I think I should have done a California Chip Butty, complete with tofu, bean sprouts, and avocado.

Chip butties with sweet potato fries (and mayo and HP Sauce), homemade peach/blueberry/banana shake, Yorkshire Tea, hard cider, and some salad to pay for my crimes.

Not an entry, so l'll join r8shell and nominate Crazy Canuck

This article made me laugh last year, and still does: The Chip Butty is the Deranged Nonsensical Sandwich of My Dreams

The Guardian has a good Chip Butty write up too: How to eat Chip butties

And of course, someone has to link to The Chip Butty Song

Happy Yorkshire Day all!

 

[JohnDF]

That's quite a meal... and should keep you "regular" for a week.

 

[JohnDF]

Oh ya... I forgot to say "I'm In" for the Yorkshire Day Contest.
I'd like my entry to go to Mike mbkr ... I'd like to see him get a traditional Lambsfoot to go along with his Lanmbshark.

.Mrs Bigfish and I enjoyed our first Chip Butty tonight. Happy Yorkshire Day Jack!

Enticing!

Good morning Guardians, and Happy Yorkshire Day! The sun is shining here, for once, and the celebrations are actually far more raucous than I had imagined! There are even folks celebrating in Lancashire apparently! Well done to all concerned!

Happy Yorkshire Day JackA slow start, but things have shaped up nicely for you. Two fisted Lambfoot knives are quite choice.

Good Morning Guardians
