Our pub puts the left over roast potatoes on the bar after Sunday lunch, lovely with salt and a pint.

I remember enjoying a few roasts spuds in a club my Dad used to go to. Nice.
 
Good quality pork scratchings.

Although the 12 oz rare T bone and chips does sound rather tempting :D

No, No, No

FFS, bread and dripping is for when you get home after the pub :D

Don't forget to sprinkle enough salt on it to put your blood pressure up about ten points, and nick all the brown gelly bit out the bottom of the pot :)

I used to work in a proper old country pub when I was younger and my best seller for late Sunday evenings were the beef and dripping sandwiches made from the left over Sunday dinners, they were all old chubby blokes tho :whistle:

As my sister has had to fly half way around the world for our Mom's funeral, I was talking only a few days ago to a workmate who also has a friend who has emigrated to New Zealand.

He had developed a craving for some good pork scratchings because they didn't exist over there. Someone visiting took him a few bags. He took some down the pub - they liked them.

He found out how to make them and now runs his own little business making scratchings and other Black Country delicacies such as ******* for the Kiwis.
 
Another vote for Pork Scratchings for me.
They have got to be decent ones though and nicely salty!

I just made a batch using the Tom Kerridge 'Proper Pub Food' book, which were lovely but not really salty enough. I managed to spill hot fat all over my foot getting them out of the oven, which hurt like hell and resulted in some nasty burns, but they were still worth it though!
 
Al always though some pork scratchings look like toes! :lol:

Another vote for proper pork scratchings from me. We once found a really hairy one. It was absolutely covered in course hair, so we made it the forfeit for a drinking game :sick:
 
I've been enjoying the Air Cured ham that Brewdog seem to sell behind the bar in Leeds - nice and tasty and goes down well with the Beers. But the Idea of Pork Scratchings has me craving a bag and a Pint right now....

Have we met??? :) :p
 
Any thing that's salty, and unhealthy
(cheese, nuts (dry roast, salted and beer), tapas, pork scratching, pork pulled, belly, wings and all things that needs fingers to eat.
 
Not an actual BAR snack.....but you couldn't beat a portion of fish and chips and mushy peas when making your way home rather unsteadily after a good night out. When they were wrapped in newspaper , not these namby pamby styrofoam trays.
Oh the agonising decision whether to have another pint and carch the bus home or forgo the last pint, walk home and call in at the Chippie......
