If yam in the Black Country yow don't need Lorne Sausage. Get to Kirk's on Dudley Street and buy the best snags money can buy.

Better than Alan Warwick's? That's quite a claim! :p

Bean juice makes my skin crawl - I struggle not to retch when washing pans that have been used to cook beans :D
 
We just call Lorne Sausage Square sausage dahn sarf.

Mushy peas can actually be very nice as a paper sauce cup amount with high quality fish and chips. Good with pie and mash as well.

A breakfast fry up, each to their own, but I wouldn't use it in one.

Theo's Thursday Night Fry Up (not to be confused with Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway):
  • Sausage
  • Egg
  • Bacon
  • Haggis
  • Fried onions
  • Mushy peas
  • Brown sauce
  • English mustard
And obviously a few slices of bread and butter.

Just no, sir. No. You are a filthy degenerate and I bite my thumb in your general direction.

The correct assembly is as follows. You may wish to reach for a writing implement and take notes for your wife/cook.
  • Lightly crisped back bacon (x4 at least)
  • High quality butchers' pork sausages (chilli optional)
  • Scrambled egg
  • Fried egg with runny yolk
  • Thickened, slow-simmered soft baked beans (enough to cover the meal)
  • High quality Lancashire black pudding slices (at least x4)
  • Fried mushrooms (and, optionally, onion and/or a grilled tomato)
  • Hash browns
  • Fried bread (optionally, as a side to mop up and with conventional toast squares under the main meal)
Then, and only then, may you consider it a fry-up. Anything else is an abomination.
 
Mushy peas in a fry up? What is wrong with some people?

Improved your recipe a little.
 
I thought I was a degenerate by adding chicken nuggets. Mushy peas is pure anarchy.

You can - Morrisons, Aldi and Farmfoods often stock it.

What you really want is Clyde Tunnel sausage, though - Lorne sausage with a black pudding running down the middle!

They aren't really called that anywhere, are they?! I've never heard of them as that in Glasgow.

This.

If you have the right amount of beans and runny eggs then there's no need for brown or red sauce.

IMHO, if you have to add sauce, the chef has got it wrong.
