Poll. Is having red and brown sauce together wrong?

Brown is the only answer in this scenario. Anyone combining sauces needs dragged into the street.

Yes.

No.

Ketchup, mustard and mayo is where it's at.

I say live and let live

Just bacon and it's fine by me - I often do it

Add anything else - cheese, egg, mushrooms and it's brown only

Both are wrong in their own right.  Both together is double wrong

Add Mayo.

And Surachi sauce.

And Cheese.

But then again I've been likened to a dog and will eat anything.

Part Collie.

....except Cucumber ?

Hey, were all on this little old earth together and we've all got to learn to live with understanding and kindness, no matter how much of a disgusting pervert your mate is.

If you want to make your sandwich taste of sugar and/or vinegar why bother with the sausage and egg at all?

If you have to ask you probably know the answer.

What TJ said

I try to be a tolerant person and typically, eat why you like. However, your "pal" is messing with a sausage banjo. I assume pal is in inverted commas as he's now been excommunicated.

Last time I checked, the Pope was fairly relaxed about condiments

Mustard, tomato sauce and brown sauce all together. Unbranded versions of the above as well.

Brown on sausage, red on bacon

Anything else is plain wrong* and both together is frankly perverted

* and I speak as someone who’s wife has mayonnaise on both, which is potentially grounds for divorce

Brown is the only answer in this scenario. Anyone combining sauces needs dragged into the street.

And parading to be the target of chants of "Shame!" and thrown manure.

Not wrong, just different. Like how apple pie and custard is incredible, but so is apple pie and ice cream. Together, sure.

I've recently rediscovered brown sauce, honestly forgot how delicious it is - cheese on toast, scotch eggs, saus rolls, etc...

The Heinz tomato & pickle is also worth a look.

Mate of mine reckons mayo & brown is a decent combo, I'm not convinced.

Ketchup and (American) mustard is the preserve of hot dogs surely?

Oh and by the way, if anyone comes at me with the poor excuse for brown sauce that is Daddy's, they can join the ones getting dragged into the street. HP only thanks

Brown sauce on a Sunday (chicken) dinner ftw 😉

mayo & brown

Best 70s jazz band bar none

It's me! I'm the "pal".

I've had both sauces on a Sosij and egg banjo for about 40 years, and I'm happy with my choices.

To provide additional detail for those that might be interested, I have Heinz Tommy K on the Sosij side and HP sauce on the egg side. It's delicious, maybe some "friends" should try it, they might like it.

#livealittle #liveandletlive

P.s. putting HP sauce on a roast chicken dinner is the work of the devil!

Yes!

Brown on bacon, red on sausage and egg. Anything else marks you out as a wrong 'un.

Haggis super with salt and sauce (obviously brown as chippy sauce is brown) add tomato ketchup at home.

HP on chicken dinner is the food of the gods and funnily enough is tonight's tea.

Cauliflower cheese will also be present.

Red on bacon, brown on sausage. If it's a bacon and sausage sandwich, red wins  If its a fry up, brown wins.

Interesting thought going 'tropical' ie a mixture of the two   .

To answer such a question one must seek the sauce of all knowledge.

Brown on breakfast sarnies and fry ups,red on fish and chips.

Also anyone who puts butter on a hot sarnie can get in the sea.(Unless it's a chip buttie)

Jesus Wept.

I can accept which bars, tyres, suss setting, but red and brown together ??.

Theres no helping you mate.

Did you know that Lea & Perrins used to make a Tomato and Worcester Sauce, it was great, but can't find it now!

Perfectly fine in a big butty, especially sausage, bacon and egg.

Sounds like the kind of "friend" that spends half of the bike ride fixing his bike ?

HP sauce. HP Fruity at a push.

Anyone who describes tomato ketchup as “red sauce”? Hanging is too good for them.

FTW, as a side note, HP and Daddies are made by the same company.

They should be on a register.

Wrong.

Egg and/ or Bacon - tomato ketchup (stokes or tiptree)

Sausage - brown (HP)

Bacon and sausage, or ideally bacon, sausage and hash brown - then it's a squiggle in one corner to corner direction with ketchup and a squiggle in the opposite corner to corner direction with brown sauce, so you have the perfect complimentary sauce lattice

Yes!

Next!

Red sauce? Brown sauce? Are you 5 years old?

It's ketchup or HP.

I will defend your right to put filthy HP on your sandwich, but both together shows a colossal degree of indecision. Be brave. Pick a side.

and I speak as someone who’s wife has mayonnaise on both, which is potentially grounds for divorce

But think of those special baked beans.

It's equivalent to buying a half and half football scarf.

or HP.

Only if you can't source OK Sauce

Wonders where Ernie is sourcing his sauce or even saucing his source?

Both. At the same time.

Have any of the haters actually tried it?

We all thought sweet and salt together was ridiculous once, just saying 😉

It’s ketchup or HP.

Chill out, Tarquin.   🙂

(Do Daddie's still make brown sauce?)

It’s equivalent to buying a half and half football scarf.

Its the narcissism of small differences really - theyre both football teams, why would you like one and not the other if you enjoy football.

It odd that Ketchup and HP seem to be quite a binary choice but if you read the ingredients they are practically the same sweet and sour sauce

Red sauce? Brown sauce? Are you 5 years old?

It’s ketchup or HP.

'Ketchup' is a very broad ranging term - we've attached it in the uk to  bottled tomato sauce, but ketchup / catsup can be made from anything. There are apple ketchups, pepper ketchups , olive ketchups and so on. It's just means sweet and sour sauce. HP Sauce is effectively a tomato ketchup - its just a tomato ketchup recipe that happens to be brown rather than red.

Its the narcissism of small differences really – theyre both football teams, why would you like one and not the other if you enjoy football.

The wrong 'uns on this thread are outing themselves.

The wrong ‘uns on this thread are outing themselves.

There are many, many things wrong with me.

But half and half scarves FFS. People that wear them should be made to watch Mrs Brown's Boys on repeat. But they'd probably enjoy that

Noooo

Each has a place, but together, even at different sides of the same plate is so wrong.

I'm lost, how did we get to scarves from sauces? And HP make printers to sell ink, red brown and other colours.

Chill out, Tarquin.

🙂

HP make printers to sell

Endless sauce.

theyre both football teams, why would you like one and not the other if you enjoy football.

I can’t work out if that half’n’half shirt is either a Boutros Boutros Ghali level of attempted UN peacekeeping, or the most dangerous item of clothing you could ever wear

its the latter, isn’t it?

I’m lost, how did we get to scarves from sauces

We’re using the scarves as a device to illustrate that on certain subjects you just can’t compromise. Pick a side. We don’t want ‘but we can all live together in peace and harmony’, we demand entrenched division and venomous tribal hatred!

No and neither is mixing tomato sauce and mayonnaise either (makes saucy sauce)

Poll. Is having red and brown sauce together wrong?

Yes. But not necessarily for the reason you might think.

It is, in fact, wrong because the solution to the brown/red sauce mix already exists - in sauce perfection.

The answer is HP Fruity (the one with the green label). Utterly incredible with bacon and eggs.

Also a brilliant cooking ingredient - mix with soy sauce, some orange juice, some ginger and garlic and you've got a great stir fry sauce too.

Mustard, tomato sauce and brown sauce all together. Unbranded versions of the above as well.

English Mustard, Tomato Sauce and Brown Sauce is my new favourite on any combo of Sausage, Bacon and/or Egg! If you've not tried it, give it a go...

I am also partial to English Mustard, Tomato Sauce and Mayo on or with burger and chips...

I'm not applying any analysis to the results but it's safe to say the double sauce combo is unacceptable and I was right. Good. Case closed.

What on earth is a "banjo"?

What on earth is a “banjo”?

Is this context a sarny or cob/roll/bap. I think it is army slang primarily, but I may be wrong.

Otherwise it is a stringed instrument favoured by people who have the name (or a relative by the name of) Cletus.

Or the one-stringed banjo - which is played equally vigorously, but not usually in public.

What on earth is a “banjo”?

Military slang for a roll with a runny egg, as when you're wiping the inevitable yolk off your top, it looks like you're playing an invisible banjo.

The way forward for Fish Finger sandwiches is Red Sauce and Hot Horseradish!

I think you’ll find it’s ketchup and cheese singles

No and neither is mixing tomato sauce and mayonnaise either (makes saucy sauce)

We do this, mix ketchup and mayonnaise. For some reason we then call it thousand island sauce. Generally used for things like dipping boiled eggs in, or drizzling over plain rice. I know, we're weird.

"Military slang for a roll with a runny egg, as when you’re wiping the inevitable yolk off your top, it looks like you’re playing an invisible banjo."

Thank you, it's a new one on me having not been in the military.  Great image.

To answer the OP - no, it is perfectly normal.

Definitely wrong but people do it.

I have got a bit of a perversion for mixing mayo and red sauce when having a chicken burger!

All kinds of wrong.

Mayo and a chilli sauce of your liking.

A bacon sarnie should just be bread, butter and bacon.

Red sauce and brown sauce, WTF even is that? the stuff that gets squeezed out of the slop trays from your local wheatherspoons on a friday night?

Animals.

I jest - I have been known to use ketchup, but I sure as hell wouldnt admit it in polite company.

If you must dabble with such saucery...

Brown for breakfast

Red on anything else

Job done...

thems the rules

I had red sauce on a bacon butty yesterday, because it was easier (bought 4 for the site lads). I wish I'd asked for brown on one. Red adds nothing to a bacon butty.

Not read the whole thread, but for me it goes thusly.

Bacon = Brown

Sausage = Red

Sausage and Bacon = both

However, if an egg is involved I'd take the brown off (unless the egg is scrambled)

It's a complicated system, but it works for me.

I wouldn't do mix them on a sandwich but I do multiple sauces for fish and chips - HP. Ketchup, Mayo and if it's from the chippy, Curry.

Variety is the spice of life and all that.

Crack on

I always thought this forum was middle class, but clearly I was completely wrong. Class wannabees.

Bacon - Tomato sauce - Heinz only. This isnt a sink council estate.

Sausage - Lorne or Link - Brown only, HP sauce, again for the reasons above.

(Pork links may have Tomato Ketchup ,but only in extraordinary circumstances.

Beef sausage is HP only)

Egg with runny yolk - HP.

Egg with cooked yolk - Ketchup

Black pudding - Ketchup

Haggis - Nothing. The dear haggis will be unadulterated- This is a legal requirement due to cultural laws

Potato scone - HP

.

Any of the above mixed - HP

Surely the answer here is HP fruity sauce

The way forward for Fish Finger sandwiches is Red Sauce and Hot Horseradish!

The Ivy Restaurant near me does a lovely Horseradish ketchup which I cant recreate at home annoyingly and cant find being sold anywhere!
