the what sauce to have on bacon butties thread

[contadino]

No HP, Branston, Brown sauce in this house. We have home made Branston pickle which is actually better than Branston, and I blitz up a jar of it to use as brown sauce.

The wife has brown sauce on bubble/poached eggs on a Monday.

As for bacon sarnie, well that's Tommy K. Or lettuce, mayo and sliced tomatoes.

But fuck a duck, never mustard.

Good old HP.
If I'm feeling rebellious I've been known to go for a squeeze of sweet chili sauce!

While in Scotland recently I had some wonderful dry cured bacon with English mustard one day, and brown sauce another.

Mustard is not usual dess...

Bacon is too thin and delicate to have lashings of sauce and definitely not mustard; both have the ability to overwhelm the bacon.
If you must have sauce with it, then it really must be done sparingly.

Plain bread HP sauce and bacon. Devine.
Although I try to use the HP sauce made in The Netherlands rather than the one made in Spain if possible. The Spanish variant tends to be too sweet I have found in previous breakfasts.

The best thing to put with bacon in a buttie is a fried egg.
Beats all sauces hands down

Especially one that bursts and runs down your chest. Initiating the frantic miming of playing a banjo.

Why limit it?

You can have what you like in a buttie, but a bacon buttie is just that. Add an egg to it and it becomes an egg and bacon buttie.

And/or a slice of good black pudding. Sauce optional!

Geordie mate of mine refers to his sarnie as a “Bacon Banjo” for that very reason

This seems as good as place as any to drop this; Maynard Davies, the esteemed bacon curer has just died aged 87. Sorry, can't find a postable obituary. Maynard
