  • In this video I share a traditional English Roast Beef Dinner with Yorkshire Pudding and Roast Potatoes along with a poignant message on the importance of the family sitting around the table. Sharing recipes that I used at Buckingham Palace for creating this delicious Sunday roast dinner for The Queen and her family.
    I also introduce my new line of fabulous Seasonings for beef, chicken, fish and vegetables (link below) and the Buckingham seasoning for the beef takes the roast to a new level.

      I can really relate to what your saying about Sunday dinners growing up My mother had a rule. You must be home for Sunday night dinner with family. My grandma would come she often made roast beef Yorkshire puddings. And she always swore by what you said about leaving the Yorkshire milk eggs out at room temperature
      It was a fool prof way Sometimes we had a roast pork and veggies
      I now have many fond memories of family around the dining room table during fall and winter months enjoying a lovely mreal and laughs at the time I was a teenager and didn’t appreciate it as I would today. Grandma s seat at the table empty now My fatter as well. And I glad I have those memories. I love hearing about your memories of Dianna. William and Harry. Too stay well Lisa Toronto Toronto Canada

    We're currently "homeless" (living in a small camper) but we still manage, when we can, to have Sunday dinner! We use our KYVOL Air Fryer and usually do a roast chicken. I think, though, when we are finally blessed with a real kitchen in a real home, our first Sunday dinner will be roast beef! Those Yorkshire puddings look amazing and can't wait to try them! ❤️

    I was born in 1960 in Paterson New Jersey, and my father was born in Southampton England. He and my grandmother when I was a child used to make this very same dinner. The Yorkshire pudding wasn’t in muffin tins but in a big flat pan. But everything else is done in this video is pretty much the same thing as I remember seeing as a child. This video is fantastic and it just warmed my heart to see something like this. Oddly enough I remembered when the pudding was cold we would have it as a dessert the next day or even the day after and we used Lyles golden syrup which if I remember correctly my grandmother used to call treacle or something like that. Again thank you very much for this video it was fantastic to see because unfortunately my parents are all gone. If I had the opportunity now that I’m 60 years old I would make this dinner for them. Peace and love to all of you. 💖🇺🇸 🇬🇧 🥰

    I remember on Christmas day it was Prime rib, roast potatoes and yorkshire pudding with carrots and parsnips. The yorkshire pudding was put in the pan that the meat was cooked in. It was terrific. The biggest problem was keeping everyone from opening the door.
    I have taken that mantle for the last 20 yrs. I agree Sunday family dinners are a must, but I do understand why it changes when the kids leave.

    Great video! The comment on the Queen liking more well done roast beef reflects, I think the time period she was raised. My Dad was a bit older than her and ALWAYS wanted beef and lamb well done. It was more the thing then. Not "cremated" but on point, so to speak. Oh, and of course, well cooked pork! You were concerned about germs and perhaps rightly so. Farms just didn't have the resources to keep parasites and certain viruses out of the system as today. A thorough cooking was what farm families liked.

    This video made me happy. My grandmother was born in Sheffield, England in 1903 and moved to America with her widowed mother in 1914. She taught my mom how to make a proper roast with Yorkshire pudding (although my dad always playfully chided my mom because her puddings didn’t rise like Nana’s 😁). My mom roasted potatoes and carrots just like in this video. Wonderful meal.

    Canadian here. With the exception of the English language, I think Britain's greatest contribution to the world is the Sunday roast dinner. Your story about your nan nearly brought a tear to my eye, as my experience is the same as yours. My gran's family was from Lincolnshire, and every single Sunday in my childhood we went to her house for the same meal: roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, mashed potato, roast potato, peas, carrots and green beans. I'm nearly 50 now and I still carry on this tradition every Sunday. Thanks for the sprouts recipe, I look forward to trying this.

Growing up we had a big dinner but Sunday was a roasted chicken and Saturday my dad cooked hamburgers and French fries. There was always a roast beef sometime during the week. No TV in the kitchen back then and all five of us kids along with mom and dad sat around the table talking. Those are great memories. I came across your you tube video and just loved it.

    The first time I was lucky enough to try this dinner out was with a family here in Canada. They were all born and raised in England. But it was actually a leg of lamb , my absolute favorite meat next to beef. My friend's Mum had all the trimmings. Boiled potatoes, roasted potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli, Yorkshire pudding's, gravy and the most succulent leg of lamb!! I will never forget that meal as long as I live. The British definitely know how to cook a proper piece of meat into something sumptuous 😋Oh and their last name was Britain 😉

Let's talk to each other.....I'm 64 now and I remember how life was at this pace....we could assimilate our conversations, the news casts...movies were more of an occasion and books and newspapers were considered treasures and necessary for the well informed sophisticated person ...

Dinner was especially delicious when visiting my grandparents farm. They raised their own vegetables, and grandfather specialized in raising Hereford beef cattle. Thanks again!🥲👍👍

Without a doubt Steak and Kidney pie is my ultimate favorite dish but a phenomenal Sunday roast is a close second especially when yorkshire pudding is involved. I don't have your cookbook yet but I will soon. Thank you, sir for sharing your gift and your recipes with us. ♥️

    Thank u Darren for a delectable recipe! I especially liked your instructions on how to make Yorkshire pudding. As an American, I thought it was like a typical creamy pudding of which I am not a fan. But the Yorkshire looks delicious! I can't wait to try this recipe. My mouth was watering as u were cooking. You have such a lovely manner, I so enjoy listening and learning from you. You are absolutely right, eating together without tv's and cell phones , make warm, loving memories. In this day and age , loving. Memories are so important. Thank you Darren for this marvelous video. 😊🇺🇸❤

    I’ve made popovers. You didn’t seem keen on them. My family devours them! Butter & jam - oh yum!!
    But a friend does make “a Sunday dinner” for Christmas Day & she makes the Yorkshire pudding/popovers. Very similar-ish. But never knew you put gravy over them. (I’m not a gravy gal, so it doesn’t matter!)

    I am making this meal tomorrow as our Thanksgiving dinner. I am using an American Wayagu roast for the meat. I've made Yorkshire pudding before and have watched several cooks prepare both the roast and pudding BUT your presentation is the most entertaining and informing of them all. I worked in restaurants for over 30 years and found that line of work my most enjoyable. I now have lived 78 years and still going strong. Your videos are lighthearted, funny and are teaching me new things about the art of cooking. Thank you sir.

    I used to do my prime rib this way, now I prefer the reverse sear method. Less shrinkage, more even color throughout. But it's just preference and we skip potatoes altogether in lieu of yorkshire which prime rib just screams for! 😋 My wife uses the muffin pan as well. I reheat both on pan the next day at 400 Deg for 5-8 minutes for leftovers. No gravy on the meat for me just horseradish, smother the yorkshire though!

  • @kh23797
    @kh23797 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Yes, you can reheat any spare Yorkshires, though they're tasty cold, too. A microwave will doughify them unless the warming is really brief ​- an air fryer or warm oven will retain the texture. Darren likes syrup, I go with raspberry jam. In England, many pubs make wide dish-shaped puds, and serve them filled with onion gravy and a savoury filling, often 'mince' (US = 'ground beef'), alongside veggies.

    I just finished eating this delicious meal with my family and it was a HIT! I did sub the ribeye for a slightly less expensive cut but it turned out just great. The potatoes were so creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside, better than any I have ever made before. The Yorkshire puddings were SO good, I've never tried them and I'm so glad I did. I got festive and made some traditional English baked beans, which I'm not sure if that's normally eaten with this but they were good. I cherished all the meals with my family growing up and I'm keeping that alive with my own family. THANK YOU so much Darren for the wonderful recipes!
