In the winter we usuallyhave a Sunday Roast. In the summer, it's just too hot so we only have it occasionally. I love roast dinners though.

Used to have a roast every Sunday, and then a midweek one, without fail!:D Since only 2 sons left at home and other changes, we normally have a roast but not always. But we do have at least one roast every week, regardless of when. When they were little the boys didn't care what the *meat* was (could have been sausages for all they cared!) as long as it came with roast potatoes and yorkies, and preferably sage and onion/sausagemeat stuffing!:rotfl: :rotfl:

The only time we don't have a roast at all is during a prolonged heatwave, so not that often eh?:rolleyes:

I didn't know you could have anything else on Sunday.

We ALWAYS have roast on a Sunday.

We have lamb about 4 times a year, chicken 3 times & beef the other 45:rotfl:

If its very hot, we have roast beef served with a tossed salad & potatoes.

Otherwise, its yorkies, roast potatos, batoned carrots, brocolli, & then a variety of roast parsnips or swede.

Beef served with creamed horseradish, lamb with mint, chicken with stuffing &/or cranberry.

DH & DD are damn fussy about meat & will only eat the leanest beef (Sainsburys taste the difference), DD moans about leg of lamb being too fatty:eek: I love it, but hardly ever have it:mad: .

Forgot to say I roast my par boiled spuds in extra virgin olive oil, I'm trying to be healthy:rolleyes:

We hate pork, so we never have it, urgh

Hardly ever - only if there's a special request. i used to though until my Dad introduced us soup on sundays. He lives in Holland and I think it might be a tradition there with the idea that you ought to be too busy going to church to bother cooking a big dinner.
i am cooking roast chicken and potatoes now though to have cold for a picnic tomorrow

Used to when all 3 children lived at home. But definitely dont now. Much better things to do with our time ! If we do fancy a lovely roast there is a pub locally that does a lush one and we go there-- really reasonable top quality, and no preparing and washing up.

sunday wouldn't be sunday without a roast.Since moving to Orkney we have discovered Orkney beef:j :j :j so its a rib roast most sundays, sod the expense. And if i had a flagpole i'd run up the Union Jack as well:rotfl:
