Who does a proper Sunday lunch/dinner/tea each week?

[stephec]

Near me there's a McDonalds, KFC, Domino's, and a Pizza Hut, and every Sunday afternoon the drive throughs are packed.

As the title says, I like to do a proper roast each week though.

It's usually either lamb, beef, or chicken, with roast potatoes, Yorkshire puds, and two or three veg.

Who still does it, I'll come back later to find out as the beef's due out of the oven in five minutes.

Yep - proper food here

We either have a roast,either beef pork or chicken. Or lasagne garlic bread and salad or shepherd's pie. Always at the table as well, not on the knee!

Don't get this as theres much better places to eat out - pubs. Though they don't have a drive through option.

Even a cheap carvery's nothing special though.

I've been to a few and watched people piling their plates high with more than they can eat just because they can.

Usually I look at the meat and potatoes and know I could do better at home, for less than about £8.00 a head as well.

Courtesy of my wife I enjoy a nice sunday roast around 6pm each sunday. Chicken by my choice, pork or beef through hers

 

[roadrash]

Sunday wouldnt be sunday without a proper roast dinner

 

[BrynCP]

Not eating much meat, or potatoes, I don't do a Sunday dinner; my family do and I eat the Yorkshire puddings if there are any!

I know what you mean, but I wasn't thinking of a carvery and I stopped going to places with them a long time ago precisely for those reasons. Pubs I will eat at are a fair bit more than £8 per head and out of town, which tends to thin out the 'pile it high' clientele.
Sounds snobby but I can afford it and I'd rather have one nice meal out a month than a KFC every week.Or a KFC ever for that matter.

We make an effort for us all to sit down and eat together every day at home as per the OP (rarely eat 'on our knee'). It's sometimes the only way the 'teens will stay in the vicinity long enough to get a conversation out of them. Doesn't happen on a Sunday very often though.

Mrs Drago does, as my waistline will confirm.

 

[jayonabike]

The Mrs always* does a roast on a Sunday around 6pm. Chicken, Pork, lamb, beef or my favourite, gammon.






*Although tonight it's a takeaway curry.......

 

[Lilliburlero]

Depends on the weather/temperature. When its warm its usually random/what floats your boat, but when it gets cooler its roast lamb or chicken every Sunday with the odd stew now and then. I love lamb and the mrs makes an amazing suet pudding from the leftover meat.

A steak n kidney stew is in the oven right now

 

[cosmicbike]

Yep, every Sunday at teatime. In fact the spuds have just gone in the oven. Pork tonight, and the leftovers will do dinner tomorrow night as every week, though I think we are having bubble and squeak instead of jackets and salad.
