The Art Of Queen Victoria's Roast Beef | Royal Upstairs Downstairs | Absolute History

- Victoria and Albert visited Penrhyn Castle in Bangor, North Wales, in 1859 for three days. Victoria had been on the throne for 22 years at the time. The castle had only been completed in 1845, just 14 years before the Queen's visit, and the whole place is built in a sham medieval style.
Historical food expert and chef Ivan Day helps Rosemary recreate an amazing feast: spit roast beef with an elaborate garnish of truffles and crayfish. It was created by one of Victoria's own chefs for grand occasions like this royal visit. In the process, Ivan and Rosemary rediscover the intricate art of spit roasting: a job so skilled that one person, the rotisserie chef, would have been focused on it.

Rosemary is actually adorable. She always makes me smile whenever she’s in a video. She genuinely seems excited about being there!
She truly is a precious angel :)
Totally agree!
If you can watch supersizers go recency (its on TH-cam I think) shes the history chef on it she's always just happy giggly lady ^^
I love how excited she is about the food cuz girl SAAAME.
That beef and tomatos made my mouth water
The wonder of the Victorian era never cease to amaze. That was some castle.
3:38 did anyone else’s auto subtitles say “turd of force”? 😂
"...when she'd been on the throne for 22 years."
I'll bet her legs were numb. (scuttles back under rock)
😂😂😂
😄😭
No fear! Stand by your pun, my son
🤣🤣🤣
Good one dear 😅
I love this series. The hosts are perfect.
Outstanding video series! Thanks for the lessons:)
Man, rosemary is so enjoyable to watch, she really makes you feel the excitement she is feeling, and I guess the guy is good too or whatever
27:48
I love this show! So fun and interesting. 😀
I love this man.
Nothing like a Welsh Mens Choral
This place seems more...fun? The food looks amazing.
I love these recipes! Everything looks delicious! 😋
My mouth was actually watering for this one! I loved the Men’s Choir and tht there were some descendants from when QV was there💞
Seems like such a cool time in history. The buildings were amazing.
Only if you're rich
I need a set of larding needles!
@23:46 it's like a bloody mary in Wisconsin. All about the garnishes.
23:42 This decoration reminds me of the Galantine of Turkey from the English Heritage channel. Luckily the meat wasn't slathered with mayonnaise.
It's fun to watch this and think of Chef Francotelli from Victoria creating this dish!
And that is certainly a beautiful piece of meat! Definitely still the same in comparative cost. It must smell delicious roasting on the spit. Can you imagine those kitchens while everything was going at full force? It must have smelled wonderful--how did they not all want to sneak a taste??
I have no idea what they were doing to that roast in the kitchen. My gaze was affixed the whole time on that amazing copper cookware on the counter behind them.
How wonderful this episode is, I enjoyed every topic.
Does anyone know the song the choir was singing?
Love the series! It's so british :D.
Salivating over the dinner…
you'd think the bread roll will look a lot moldier after more than a hundred years...
Thanks to the food adulteration that was common during the Victorian era, the flour contained plaster, sawdust, floor sweepings, and (as a preservative) a trace of arsenic.
Bread will only mold if there's enough moisture present. Think of drying bread for croutons or stuffing. And at that level of aristocracy, I doubt the flour would have been cut with any additives, including arsenic, if purchased from reputable miller. Which I'm sure a Great House such as Perhyn could afford to do.
The chef's name really was Mr. Francotelli! Like in the miniseries Victoria 😄
Yes. Causes it historically correct 😕
I'm hungry. Warm regards from hungry man.
What music is in the beginning? Heard it in a videogame once, an old flash game I think
I'm sure the roast beef is wonderful. The trimmings don't do much for me.
🙋👍 Pozdrawiam z Polski.
Ooh its about food. The title
"Queen Victoria's Roast Beef" ... Really?! Damn...
I think his math is way off. 53" tall is 4' - 5". That is not 5' -2".
Why is the guy host alway yellow? Was his liver failing?
Beef
What were the children eating? I find that more far more interesting.
@16:30 "high end bbq" lol tell that to texans. This is lowbrow in comparison.
16:30 - I think he's maybe thinking of barbecue as in just "grilling out" and is forgetting/not aware that genuine "barbecue" uses just as if not more sophisticated techniques and quality ingredients. -- I don't know how it is/what they know about it in the UK but even in the U.S. when mentioning "BBQ" you've got to be VERY specific about where you are on a large spectrum that goes from hot dogs and hamburgers in the backyard on a charcoal webber through slow-cookers/marinades/smokers to buried coal pig roasts, actual "pit" BBQs, and thenow-centuries-long regional refinement of many different styles (...and some of the most broad and formative BBQ practices come from colonial slaves with French and English owners and there are enough similarities/shared influences it's not unreasonable to argue that barbecue is EXACTLY what they are doing in this episode).
Yup! I'm convinced I need to be filthy, filthy rich and live in a castle! Prince Charming, where are you???? 🤴👸 (unless you look like Prince Charles...then no thank you)
While queen Victoria was busy stuffing her mouth, her people were starving to death. And if they weren’t starving to death they were working in one of the 700 work houses! let’s see what were the age of the children 8, 9 years old working in the Mills : so while she is eating like a queen there’s people out there is that the only meal they have is porridge! I do enjoy watching this but still….
The perfect ancient period when royalty were the subjects of the people - not vice versa. Whack a king if he didn't provide for the common good of the people - food, health, supplies, .... Perfect proof when Vicky was stuffing her face (and gaining pounds) - when the 1850s-1910s commoners in the cities were suffering, starving, filled with disease and dysentery, crapping in the streets, and packed like rats in buildings and worked to death 6 days a week for the slum landlords and bastard business tyrants ... and then someone else was employed to take out the queen's potty for cleaning. Total corruption and stoopid arrogance of a social(ist) system that remains from the state-church/church-state of today ...m as a revised and revisionsit Marixst words of modern medieval feudalism that is being perped on the planetary masses during this covi time of extreme hardship. The perfect reason why royalty needs to be abolished in all nations - and the same for the abominable and arrogant elites (whether by royal blood, capitalist greed of robber baron elites, ... leftist socialist radicals and terrorists ... removal of almost all socialism programs, ... and leave off all the onerous taxations upon the backs of the people - and let the national equity and prosperity of the population be the source of national stability and economy.
what about the veg? Uses tomatoes......
Lick lick lick. Yep tastes like boots.
Rosemary is forever putting her fingers in the food and then into her mouth and I never see her washing her hands. Maybe she should finger the food off camera.
8:55 I heard "Having finished Looting" instead of meeting. I mean it wouldn't be incorrect 🤡
Over 50 Trillion Dollars (today) Looted from India alone
8:35 - you stock the table with the most work and time consuming gourmet dishes, and the royal cow still shakes her royal nose and asks for bloody rice pudding. If sb's born an ungrateful simpleton, they die as one no matter how much gold and jewels you put on top of their head.
Yet ANOTHER instance during watching of this show where a guillotine opens itself in my pocket...
Well, aren’t YOU a charmer?!😄
You have a gift for writing prolific pieces. Just sayin, I see something special here.
Lovely show, but the hosts are not suited. I am trying to say it nicely, change the retirees
I disagree entirely.
Wow!! How about appreciating and honoring their knowledge and tenure?
I think they're doing a great job. Each to their own i guess
@@bernadinetempleton656 They are irritating, especially the woman. She is so annoying.
@@honestcomments6060
I’m sure she’d be thinking much the same about you, but she’d be too polite to say so. You know, you could always not watch...
