What the hell is a breville? Some kind of Jamaican pattie (in'a'coco bread)?Food Chain number = 4

:shock: A toasted sandwich maker
Oh, those things!!! They're the shizzle. Butter on both sides of the hotplate, bread, butter, cheese, ham.

+1 Beans, cheese
in fact +1 to all breville fillings
personal fave though is....
Hot dog sausages, cheese, ketchup, although the Breville heats the ketchup and cheese to lava temperature and is guaranteed to leave a nice burn on your chin should it drip."Bed is for sleepy people.
Let's get a kebab and go to a disco."

If you're gonna eat cheese and ham toasties then the ha must be sprinkled with cayenne pepper and the toastie should be dunked in ketchup on it's way to the mouth...
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

A Mars bar chopped into slices is a good filling if you've got a sweet tooth.
For the savoury option I like sausage cheese and tomato.0 -
For all you cheese and beans fans out there have you ever tried the Greg's cheese and bean pastries? They are SUPERB and 2 for £2.05 or something ridiculous!
Whilst we are on the subject of hot toast based snacks what is the boards opinion on the best machine for the job? I used to have one of the seal-em jobbies that would effectively heat the bread and fillings into little parcels and make an effort and cutting them in half, I think it got broken or went missing when we moved.
We now have one of those largish 4 slice panini/ciabata toasting machines with the "floating" hotplates that can also be used to make hot sandwiches, this one doesn't seal em up so you have to be careful of leaking fillings but it does allow for larger then usual hot snacks :-)0 -

IMO the 'seal-em' ones are the toaster of choice when dealing with runny fillings. For non-runny fillings I use the George Foreman as it doesn't pulverise the bread quite so much so you end up with a tastier sarnie.0 -

I reckon the George Foreman is great for making toasted ciabatta (tom, mozz, basil mmmm). For the humble cheese & ham then you need a Brevilly style jobby, othing else will do.

+1 on the Greggs Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melts. They're lovely.
Other things that go nicely with cheese inside a toastie are:
- Chorizo, and in a similar vein...
- Pepperoni
- Crispy bacon
- Frankfurter, thinly slicked
Or any other salty meat, cured meat, leftover meat.0 -
you feckers are making me hungry now......
earlier on today, one of my suppliers sent me a huge chocolate bar.
oh, well..... CHOMP!0 -
Am I alone in hating Gregg's? They're a poor imitation of the proper high st baker. I've never liked their products - stuffed as they are with suspect looking food and dripping with grease. Bleurgh.

Pasties aren't meant to be haute cuisine, they're meant to be cheap, quick and tasty.
The organic, natural, red tractor, geographically-protected brigade have got us all thinking that traditional British food needs to be the highest quality from the best ingredients and it's not worth having a pasty unless you're in Cornwall, in Phipp's or somewhere.
Lovely as all that stuff can be it does seem to be creeping up in price these days. I think there's a lot to be said for places selling cheap and cheerful food and Greggs is just that.
Too much of this food that was originally cheap and eaten by the working classes seems to have been turned into expensive snacks for the Notting Hill lot.0 -

Well Gregg's gets 1 point for being cheap!
I don't buy the rest of your argument though. I grew up near a small seaside town in Sussex, the local baker made delicious suasage rolls, pasties, pies etc etc, they were (and still are) cheaper/same price as Greggs but are far far nicer and made with lovely local meat and veg.- 2023 Vielo V+1

If they're cheaper (or the same price) then my argument falls down, yes.
But a lot of the stuff I see these days is expensive for what it is. It's delicious and maybe you could even argue that it's worth the money but it's not completely true to the original ethos (the stuff I tend to see - your seaside town baker's cheap wares are outside the scope of what tends to be my experience).
There's a bit of a local, green, organic kick going on in the world of food and for the most part I support it but one thing I don't like is how it's creeping into 'street food' (for want of a better description) as an excuse for people to charge more.
Basically... I don't mind paying a good local butcher for quality local meat for my Sunday roast but I object to people charging more for pasties because they've used organic mince and local spuds.0 -

Agreed on that, the whole Organic movement was dreamed up by some marketing dept and is a very clever way of making people pay over the odds. It's organisations like the fcuking soil association that really p1ss me off.- 2023 Vielo V+1

What are these strange Breville things you crazy English folk have? I googles it and all that appeared was a bunch of insta-coffee machines. :?
Is it just like a toastie?0 -

Not a fan anymore either.
White Line - a Breville is a toasted sandwich maker, but a triangular shape is carved into both sides (top and bottom side too), so the contents are sealed. The contents are then super-heated so that the when you bite into it, you immediately take off all the skin in your mouth, try to suck in air and swallow quickly. Repeat until sandwich finished.FCN 2-4.

There's a 'Greggs Bargain Bakery' on my route to work, for those that just can't afford a trip to the regular Greggs :roll:
The pasties from the Cornish Kitchen in town are far far far superior to anything Greggs can manage. Yummy!Saracen Tenet 3 - 2015 - Dead - Replaced with a Hack Frame

We don't call it that though. I take it it's something like a brand name (by the people who make a coffee machine thing). :? 0 -
