The breakfast Fry-up (A British term)
“Breakfast. The Full English. The Full Monty. A fry-up. Call it what you want, but there are few nations in this world that do breakfast better than the British. Digging into a piping hot fry up is a is an experience that can set you right no matter what situation you may have gotten yourself into. What is included in your fry-up is a matter of taste, as well as region. The following is a breakdown of the fry-up, and the components that are (in my mind, at least) essential—as well as a group of things that are a welcome addition to the party…

I've had a version of this at Nana's Irish Pub in Newport, Oregon. Pretty tasty.

We go there EVERY time we drive from Eugene to Highway 101! I might have seen you.

I lived in Newport for 5-years, now in Roseburg. Nana's was one of my favorite places.

One more reason I always look for a proper pub in any new city or country.

Murphy's in Schiphol airport was always the first place I hit when traveling.

We have a great one local that my wife and I hit on Friday's.

My hunting buddies always fix up a good fry when we camp


Yummy

Same here. We've never tried their breakfast, but the fish and chips and Reubens are awesome.

Other than the fish and chips, the full English breakfast was the only English food I really enjoyed when I was stationed there.

Stick to your ribs! Looks good.

One of my favorites is eggs over easy, hashbrowns, and sausage, all mixed together and smothered in brown gravy. If I added some beans, tomatoes, and shrooms, I'd be right there.

Yes indeed. Had a few in England/Ireland and unless you were climbing mountains, would last us all day until a late supper.

Never heard the "fry up" terminology before, but I'm familiar with the classic English Breakfast.

I do a version at home on occasion if I have leftover baked beans in the fridge. Couple eggs, the beans and any breakfast meat that handy.

I've been to Newport a bunch, but never went to Nana's, gonna have to rectify that next time!

We used to buy frozen bangers from one of the local pubs for when we wanted to have a quick meal at home.

We have at least two pub-style places locally for that breakfast. One is designed to look like the one from the original owner's hometown pub in England.

The Britts have a great Fry. I’ve enjoyed everything but kippers. Kidneys and Boole sausages with runny eggs are divine.

I'm a fan of everything except the Baked Beans and the undercooked bacon. Bacon should "crunch" when you chomp into it.

Everything I've had there has been fantastic, but their pot pies, corned beef and cabbage, and bangers and mash are my favorites.

We frequently enjoy making breakfast at dinner time. I'll ask if my girlfriend is up for this, though. Looks like a great meal.

Does that come with a pint?

Correct me if I'm wrong, an English Fry has beans whereas an Irish/Ulster Fry has black pudding and soda bread and absolutely no beans...?

After a rough night at the pub in Belfast back in '03, a fry was just what the doctor ordered, my god it was good.

I've eaten variations on this theme at Scottish B&Bs, English hotels, French chain restaurants,on ferries and at golf course canteens. LOVE the black pudding/blood sausage... the wife is appalled that I like it.
