pannini's

a) It's spelt "panini."

b) One does not use an apostrophe on a plural.

c) "Panini" is a plural to start with and doesn't require an S either.

d) Imbecile.

I'm not normally one for grammar pedantry, but three mistakes on one word is mightily impressive and made me want to claw my eyes out from the horror.

Well... After some initial scepticism, and definitely not sharing in my child-like glee at its arrival, Mrs Binners has embraced the toastie maker.

On getting back from the pub last night, she was possessed with the kind of inspiration that only several vodka and cokes can provide.... The pulled pork and onion Toastie!!!

Bloody lovely it was too!!!!! Perfect post-pub fodder!!! Almost kebab-esque in its beer fuelled beauty. The pork had been in the slow cooker, in ginger beer, all day! Highly recommend!!! 🙂

Completely off topic, but ooh, pork and ginger beer. I've done the ham and coke thing but that sounds interesting...

It's bloody lovely! Pork shoulder joint, bottle of ginger beer, onions and plenty of paprika, bang in slow cooker, leave on low for 12 hours until it's so tender it just falls apart! Delicious! 😀

Still using our vintage Breville here.

My personal favourite inventions are brie with red onion chutney and smoked mackerel with beetroot and horseradish.

PS. Paninis are football stickers.

She's a keeper that one 😀

I'm drooling thinking about it, I also cook gammon joints in ginger beer.

39 quid on a sandwich toaster misses the point. £15 max and ideally less. Back of the garage, car boot sale, loft fine for extra points.

You're bloody right on that score Mr overshoot! Mrs Binners embrace of the toasty maker is really coming up trumps in no uncertain terms! I just rode home from Manchester in bucketing rain. Arriving home like a drowned rat, I grumpily climb out of my sopping wet kit, grab a shower, and am, on returning downstairs, presented with a glass of red and two toasties. Red Leicester and chorizo, and bacon and Stilton! Bloody hell they were good!!!!

You really can't ask for much more than that!!! 😀

Chopped beef and ragu the other evening

I cant say I agree with the "Warburtons toastie" fans. The slices are too big.

You want a weedy thin bit of synthetic bread-u-like that allows you to fill the cavities to the max while STILL being able to shut the lid and not have the top slices shuffle forwards.

Top tip. Dont bother with Heinz Sandwich Spread in one (I was going for the Full 80's thing). I spent most of my lunchtime licking hot dripped sandwich spread off my desk.*

* not a euphemism.

While this thread has been revived can I just apologise for not fulfilling my promise of experimental results.

Now I can't even remember what it was , I do remember it would have turned the toastie making world on its head.

I have duck eggs, spinach and some honey smoked salmon in the fridge. All I actually want is a cheese, corned beef and onion toastie... I feel a trip to tesco for dirty white bread coming on...

never get trouble with anything sticking when you cook on them: it's always turned out nice again.

Banana and apricot jam. That was the closest we got to continental cooking when I was a boy.

Inspired by the resurrection of this thread, I've just had a pre-ride toastie.

In a bold, daring and controversial move I opted for JUST cheese. I know, I know.... Madness! Obviously which cheese was critical. I can happily confirm that the double Gloucester with chives Toastie was absolutely bloody lovely! 🙂

And when has anything ever been improved with the addition of avocado? What were you thinking? You sick twisted pervert!

We've had cheese and ham toasties for lunch! They were lovely!

Avocado indeed! 😛

I contaminated 4 of the damn things with it. I cant even face the last of them. It's sitting on the plate, drooping at me.
Ive never not been able to finish off a fullhouse* before. Defeated.

*4x slices.

If available, slip slices of crispy bacon in the remaining one.
