One can argue good beef (or meat) don’t need any condiments whatsoever

I have stopped cooking lamb for my family. I delicately flavour it with rosemary and garlic in the cooking. The gravy likewise has the flavour of the trivet (herbs, onions, carrots, celery) through it. Then they paste mint sauce all over it. Not an inch isn't plastered with the stuff. Heathens.

Who's to say you're as good a cook as you like to think? Maybe this is a hint?

Insulting my cooking and my palate in one post. That is some trolling my friend. Looking at your location you are not that far away. I have a very special set of skills etc etc.....

My silly sense of humour always found the name ‘Gentlemen’s relish’ utterly hilarious

For me, regardless of what Roast Dinner I eat (Beef, Pork, Chicken, Lamb) it has to be English Mustard.

In our house:

Roast beef - Horseradish
Chicken - Bread sauce
Lamb - Mint sauce
Pork - Apple sauce

I put chilli sauce on pretty much everything.

Just leave the poor fella to his ruined roast as long as he leaves it off your dinner don’t worry.

My brother growing up had ketchup on everything even toast when my mums back was turned thankfully he has out grown such things.

For myself decent homemade gravy is all i need now but will often use mustard or apple sauce ect.. if make a sandwich out of left over meats.

Thread has over 30 posts and no mention of piccalilli? Shocking.

Works best with cold meats, usually pig-based. Not so common for Sunday roasts, where mustard or horseradish is probably more preferred...

Piccalilli and leftover gammon sandwiches are godly!

apple sauce on everything

Only other one missing from your list - Bread sauce with Turkey or Gammon

^ Definitely bread sauce with roast chicken (Mustard and cranberry too).

Also missed Cumberland sauce with roast ham
Redcurrent jelly is another for lamb

Never fancied bread sauce. It looks like wallpaper paste.
