  • Princess Diana ate a full tin of Heinz beans for breakfast! Some say it's the breakfast of champions and won't start the day without it. For others, it's a weekend treat. One things for sure, the Brits love a 'full English breakfast' and even go in search of 'the British Pub' when abroad for their daily fix. But a proper Full English breakfast has to have authentic ingredients, sausage, bacon, beans and black pudding. Here I show you how to prepare it... the way I prepared it for the Royal Family at Buckingham Palace. Grab a mug of tea, sit back and start the video.

    I'm an American of British ancestry, and I visit the UK every few months, I lived there for two years. I do love a good fry up, and indulge everytime I'm there. Here in Mississippi, it's biscuits and gravy, grits, and venison or wild hog sausage from my hunts. I don't know which I love more, a Southern or full English breakfast. Both are delicious. You can't find HP sauce here in the states, I order off Amazon.

      I’m a Brit living in Texas and on Christmas Day we ditched the turkey in favor a full rib of beaf, roasties, Brussels sprouts and carrots.
      I have almost managed to get close to an English pork sausage locally but failed with back bacon and black pudding. I can forego the traditional English baked beans as I like American beans. Mushrooms and Tom’s are no problem. Fried bread, no problem. I’m almost there. If I go to a “British shop” here I can get Cumberland or Lincolnshire but curiously they are made here and expensive.
      My latest thing for high protein quickie breakfast is a couple of slices of spiral cut ham lightly cooked to stay tender and two fried eggs. One pan.
      Great post. Thanks.

    I’ll share my story. I had not eaten in about 42 hours after flying around and I landed in London. Heathrow airport to be exact. I had gotten in late and and I had no idea where to eat or what to get so I said to the man late that night just give me something you recommend. So he brought me a giant burger and hand made crisps and a giant soda. It was amazing and I slept great. Next morning I was at the same place and skimmed through the the breakfast menu and I saw the “Grand Breakfast” well, being an American in London, why not get the grand breakfast. I ordered and it blew my mind, I had no idea what it was or ever even heard of this. Well I was unsure but hungry. And dove right in and I can attest to the gentleman in the video. It is amazing. Never have I ever had something so spectacular in my life. It was better than the previous meal I had there and I’m sure it will be if I ever am fortunate to fly again to London, something I would stop and enjoy again. Loved the video and you answered so many questions I had. Like I just thought it was a hockey puck but now I know lol. Absolutely tremendous!

It had everything and plenty of it - eggs, bacon, sausages, black pudding, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms - plus 4 pieces of toast, a full pot of tea, jam, honey, coffee if I wanted, and yogurt too. Could barely move after and there was no need for a lunch. Excellent.

Beside the grand breakfast I remember they had a bar and game room, with a pool table, board games, and lots of books we could borrow. The owner told me the bar was open and you were 'on your honor'. Which meant we could get our own drinks, but had to mark them down in a ledger with our name and room number, and we would be billed for our drinks at check out time. At the B and B I met some British soldiers in town for a wedding and got plastered with them after they dragged me to the wedding reception. Next morning I found they had put about 60 quid worth of drinks next to my name in the ledger! Was worth it though. Great time.

    Traditional old American farm breakfast was fried eggs over easy, a really spicy sausage patty or two, hashbrowns, toast and oatmeal. Glass of either milk, orange juice, tomato juice, tea or coffee. You likely had two of the drinks. Sometimes morrels but those were mostly for supper with deep fried fish fillets as well as asparragas as morrels and asparagas season were the same. Most canned type beans are bad these days. To sweet or more like tomato juice with a lot of sugar added. I have had left over home made Boston baked beans. A lean breakfast was two eggs a large helping of hashbrowns, toast and something to drink.

    While visiting Ireland I had a Full Irish Breakfast and it was so hearty that I wasn't hungry for the rest of the entire day. There were no beans, and we had toast or brown bread instead of fried bread, but the rest was the same. The Black Pudding was amazing and I've never had any as good since.

      We also have White Pudding (Try Gubbeen, Jack McCarthy or Nolans of Kilcullen etc) which you wont get in a full English. Delicious! My favourite full Irish breakfast is x2 Sausage, x2 Bacon, x3 White Pudding, x3 Black Pudding, x2 Fried Eggs, small pot of beans, a slice of fried bread or one or two Potato farls, No Mushroom (not for me!), Fried quartered Tomatoes (never tinned!) and some sliced white or soda bread on the side with Kerrygold butter. Absolute Bliss...especially when hungover 🤣

    As a Chinese that onced had stayed in the UK for a 10 years shy, English breakfast is definitely among the things I missed the most. So much so that I am starting to cook my own English breakfast at my China home. The most difficult thing to come by is the breakfast sausages, whatever Lincolnshire or Yorkshire is, probably due to the difficulties in transport. I am trying to find some local alternatives that meet my memories most.
