I've just asked for a 'Super Porkie Single Supper'

[Magnus McGinty]

We need wor geordie lad neonwilderness to give us stottie pizza recipes.

It’s cooked bigger. So you’d need to quarter it for a chip buttie.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

I wasn’t even aware it was Bilog-centric tbh.
You’ve heard the idiom for pregnancy as someone has ‘a bun in the oven?’ No?

Yes, but women don't give birth to a chip butty. Except in your case, obvs.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

Ah, so you do know what a bun is.

You northerners eat weird and talk weird

Paging sojourner and moose for their views on correct bread terminology

 

[neonwilderness]

A stottie isn’t even the same shape as a bun, barm, bap, roll etc.
Actually probably the same shape but not the same thing. It’s closer to a pizza base!

It appears that this is a thing. Not that I've tried it

It looks a bit like a parmo

To be fair to neonwilderness, stotties make ace Cumberland sausage butties - slather them with butter and Colmans mustard. Just perfect.

Also, ham and pease pudding stotties - with the obligatory shit ton of butter.

You need to make one and report back.

It must be - we always viewed Billy as the weird neighbour, tied only by dint of local government structures. Billy Bottoms was the ancient dividing line between the two towns.

sauce would be more normal in Scotland. But no idea in Orkney.

Edinburgh corrected for you

2 super porkies and same amount of chips

 

[Voley]

Would like to try deep fried haggis though

Your wish is my command.



Ate this while being serenaded by a piper in the grounds of Lewis Castle over the other side of the harbour. Then 2 guys has a bit of a pissed altercation in the car-park. It was sort of perfect.

In another educational foray into Scottish culture, apparently "Cheeky Chips" are a half-portion of chips with a sausage. Is this a regular thing or just a Hebridean variation?

The definitive answer at last.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

How. Fucking. Much!

That menu would literally be cheaper in London.

That must be a Steòrnabhagh thing.

To be fair in London the restaurant isn't having to literally ferry in most of the ingredients from a couple of hundred miles away.

Was just checking this pic on my phone to make sure I have enough cash for tomorrow night and I feel like it should go on this thread. The scampi supper that's only on a separate printed sign inside the van seems to be the most popular choice with the regulars but I'm working my way through most other things just to be sure

What's a red pudding, iona? (Assuming you’ve made it that far down the menu
)

 

[danny la rouge]

What's a red pudding, @iona?

Are you even Scottish?

 

[iona]

Google tells me they come in a couple different versions but the one I had was basically indistinguishable from a rubbish battered sausage. They generally contain a mix of pork and beef and suet and spices and sometimes red food colouring I think.

A chip stottie is brilliant, but it's like eating a brick. Need to lie down comatose for several hours afterwards.

See danski - come to the grim north and we'll feed you well. Make sure you dress decently though.

It all sounds terribly uncivilised.





Count me in!

Good job you didn't tag me. It's a breadcake where I'm from

Bacon stottie ftw! Same outcome though

Good to see Battered Mars Bar on that list. Important that there's a veggie option. Unless that's cooked in lard, of course.

Surely the veggie option is just the same cooked in vegetable oil?
