Today we are trying Sunday roast at Toby Carvery for the first time. We weren't sure what to expect going to Toby Carvery, but overall we thought it was a pretty good meal for the price. For those of you who don't know much about it (like us before we went), Toby Carvery is a British chain of carvery-style restaurants, serving roast meats and traditional Sunday roast dinner accompaniments such as Yorkshire puddings, stuffing, gravy, and vegetables. At Toby Carvery, you can choose from four roasted meats and as many vegetables and accompaniments as you want from the buffet-style counters. Toby Carvery has built its brand around offering a "home of the roast" experience, aiming to serve traditional British roast dinners at affordable prices.
What are your thoughts on Toby Carvery? Worth the price of better to have a traditional Sunday roast somewhere else?

You hit the nail on the head, Toby will never beat a home made roast or even a good pub roast, but when you take into account the price, the amount of food you can get, the fact there's almost every possible side for you to pick and choose and how much easier it is than making one yourself, that's when Toby really shines.

use a glass out the cupboard and fill it once with plain flour, once with eggs, and once with milk. whisk it all into a smooth batter with a pinch of salt. leave it to rest on the side for min.30 minutes, up to 2 hours until it's a bit aerated. preheat your deep muffin tray at 220C with a splash of oil in each well until it's really hot. whisk the batter again just before use and pour it into the hot oil and straight back into the oven, bake it for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. do NOT open the oven until they're ready! this method gets perfect monster yorkshire puddings every time!

@dinastanford7779 9 месяцев назад

Sunday roast every week. Bubble and squeak with a slice of meat on monday. Left overs with mash Tuesday. Meat stewed up with veg Wednesday. Soup Thursday. Fish and chips Friday. Maybe sausage and mash Saturday. Edit. This was the routine in the 1950's, not everyone could afford to waste food. My nan grew her own veg so the food budget was carefully managed. No freezer or refrigerator and tinned goods were a luxury. The Sunday roast was the main meal of the week with a big piece of Yorkshire pudding so that you didn't eat too much meat. We would have the rest of the pudding the next day, cold with marmalade on.

@@Chris66able To be fair depends on the location, used to have one near me at Uni that was great and would often grab a roast dinner with a bunch of us, their Gammon was especially good.

The potato bake is with squash made with a garlic and cream base. The roast potatoes have beef dripping on them. everything is fresh only thing that is frozen is the peas and cauliflower. everything prepped fresh every day and also Yorkshire puddings are fresh not frozen. i work for the company xx

Going to a Carvery is all about timing. Best day is always a Sunday because they usually have Lamb on too. You've got to go when it's not really quiet, because the food will be sat out all day, but also not too busy because you'll be waiting in line for ages and you'll be waiting for things to get replenished.

As an Aussie I grew up having a Sunday Roast every week. It would be 1 type of meat- chicken, pork, beef or lamb. Roast potato, roast sweet potato, roast parsnips and roast pumpkin. Steamed carrot and peas and gravy. Yum yum. I do a roast maybe once a month. And a roast for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas Day (even though it’s summer) and Easter Sunday.

Another great video! Interesting that you picked up on the mustard in the cheese sauce. When I make it, I always add in a good teaspoon of Dijon mustard (French, but all good haha), I think it adds a lot to the sauce. And many Brits would now call it mac'n'cheese. I am also a sucker for the condiments too, cranberry with the turkey, apple sauce with the pork and gammon, horseradish with the beef, and you can take as much as you like! Keep up the excellent work! 😊

@jacqueline8559 8 месяцев назад

@duffman18 8 месяцев назад

@@jacqueline8559 yep mint sauce is easily the most delicious sauce in the world, by a long long way. I always have loads of mint sauce with my roasts, regardless of what meat I've got, because it goes just as well with chicken, turkey, pork, beef, duck etc as it does with lamb. I often mix mint sauce into the gravy too, just to make it be able to cover everything on the plate more easily, cos I pour gravy on everything and not just onto the meat. I do love cranberry sauce too, and that's always lovely with any kind of meat too, not just turkey. But yeah if I have to choose one sauce over all others, I'm choosing mint sauce every single time. It's just absolutely gorgeous. And goes well with everything. Whenever I make mushy peas I always stir in a big dollop of mint sauce too, can't have mushy peas without mint. I've even used mint sauce on fish and chips (or battered sausage and chips) from a chip shop. It goes very well with that, because chip shop chips are basically like roast potatoes anyway (or close enough to them, anyway) and mint sauce goes well with any kind of meat, or even fish, but yeah especially if you get something from there like a battered sausage, or a saveloy, then the mint sauce is absolutely gorgeous with those.
