Is that the Rosa Marie sauce er whatever that stuff is Brits like? I've never had it but I think I remember some English folks posting about it. Yes I know you're not British but you've got that Cornwall connection...

New Zealander, they’re more British than the British in some ways

If you pass McDonalds you collect 200 minutes of your life back.


I go there a couple times a year.
Love their steak bagels in the morning. They're just not really by me or on my way anywhere.

I'd try a steak bagel

Dunno, all I know is you don’t mention prison stuff, it’s off limits due to extreme brutality

I'm sorry but that's not "our" cocktail sauce. It's horseradish, ketchup, and maybe some lemon juice and a dash of your worst ever sauce lol (Worcestershire sauce for those who don't know rascal keeps big jugs of it on hand).

Lol.. you arebkind of right. My great grand parents were English through and through
(Mums side) morning and afternoon tea with bone china etc.
We dont do that here but mum used to. My dad's side (he walked out when I was 4) was always a rugged side. I remember him and his father very well. My das was a tough man.. bushman aka logger aka axeman .
Im a bit of both.

That was unexpected.
That's what I use on Big Macs. And Reubens.
But I'm sure they tasted great. An under appreciated sauce.

No doubt.
And probably a good base if you wanted to jazz it up with horseradish or seasoning of some sort.

I never thought of doing that, but I can see how that would work!

I forget now, but someone was talking about McDonald's Steak Bagel?
We do not patronize this fast food joint but rarely, and had never heard of this...
Steak, Egg & Cheese Bagel Breakfast Sandwich | McDonald's
That's a hard pass for me!
"... a juicy steak patty ..." What the hell is that?

 

[kaneohegirlinaz]

I looked up what a steak patty is:

McDonald's steak for breakfast is a pre-made patty made from sirloin beef, according to a former corporate chef. The patty is produced by the food service brand Steak-EZE, which is lightly marinated and seasoned, then compressed to break apart when cooked.

• Type of meat:
  The steak is made from sirloin beef that is processed into a patty.
  
  
• Supplier:
  McDonald's sources this "Break Away Sirloin Beef Steak" from a food service brand called Steak-EZE.
  
  
• Preparation:
  The patties are pre-marinated and seasoned with ingredients like Montreal steak seasoning before being sent to the restaurants.
  • Form:
    The steak is compressed into a patty shape that breaks apart when cooked on a flat-top grill.

I looked up waht a steak patty is

Steak sandwiches made from preformed steak patties are a SW Ohio specialty!

They come two ways, usually - with a mushroom gravy or with pizza sauce, onions, and peppers and served hot on a pillow-soft hoagie roll.

They’re best purchased out of a pass-through window in the back of a dive Mom-and-Pop carry-out convenience store in some podunk town where they’ll have a little griddle set up on one table and a little card table with the fixings on another table, and you’ll get it hot and wrapped up tight in some tinfoil.
