Roast spuds look bloody amazing.

Yorkshire puds good too.

However, not enough gravy and no green veg.

8/10

Gravy should definitely be covering the Yorkies at least.  Can't recognise the meat on my phone.  Can't be good.  With Camel, definitely need greens.  Roast potatoes a positive.  Hoping my carrots look better.  Just making a roast. 6.5/10

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Hard crowd. Beef is Silverside, Mrs Eck likes her roast well cooked so expected abuse on the overdone meat however once it has rested it is sliced and placed in the gravy to simmer for a while so it nearly falls apart. Agree more gravy needed and was added post picture along with mustard.

Bob those look amazing apart from it looks like you cut the pitta bread with a hammer.

Disagree with gravy over the Yorkshires.  Leave them be imo.
Looks good, more greenery agreed. 8/10

I wasn't going too dock you a point for missing gravy on the spuds but missing on the Yorkies as well is a cumulative -1. The yorkies look sad that they don't have gravy.

Potatoes and carrots look excellent and greens are not needed at all. What nonsense.

-0.5 for Mrs Eck liking her meat well done. Please discipline your wife.

8.5/10. Not expecting to see many better blonde roasts, apart from on some mucky site that amatay recommended.

I'm sorry to say that Eck's is an excellent effort. Would rather rip into it!

-1 would like more gravy

-1 something green would be nice

8/10

bobalike....

-1 for weeds in the nice looking planters up the steps. Standards in telford are clearly slipping

-1 for haphazard cutting of pitta bread

+1 for sheer effort, attention to detail and number of photos in the reportage

9/10.

Good effort.

Half a point deducted for each of the following;

Carrots. No carrots please.

Uneven distribution of gravy.

Not enough roast potatoes.

Plate is dull, & way too small, invites spillage.

No cutlery, we use knives & forks down here.

No napkin.

Presence of Tomato Ketchup.

Absence of Mint Sauce.  


Points added (half a point each)

Excellent meat.

Reasonable yorkies.

7/10

Bobalike's effort:

Pittes look like proper floury textured ones. Ones that you buy from a Greek bakery and not Supermarket ones. +1

They look cut just fine but -0.5 for posting on a forum a greek meal for a bunch of foreigner baked bean eaters to judge a proper kebab Smiley

-1 for the slight burnage. Would have liked to see the meat raised a bit higher over the coals.

-0.5 for the lack of accompaniments. No dips? No halloumi? No bourkouri/klitharaki?

When I bink the main I will be round to drop off the readies and try the next effort Smiley

Mint sauce!?!? That's beef not lamb.

-1 to your character for not liking roast carrots.
