Lob scouse aka Irish Stew with dumplings! It could, of course be made with anything you fancy and nowadays there is apparently a need to make everything spicey, but give me the old classics any day. Especially those which cook on their own whilst out taking a bracing walk! Oh, happy days!

Mine is actually more of a snack than a meal. I like hot tea with milk and sugar and graham crackers spread with butter... dip the graham crackers in the hot tea and get it all mushy and melty. Yum! Perfect on a cold night.
Beef Roast with veggies and scratch made biscuits are a favorite.
Then there's seared pork tenderloins with bread stuffing and fried apples, served with garden fresh, steamed carrots and butter sauce with biscuits.
We also love to have butter-beans and ham served over rice topped with onions and pepperncini. Cornbread on the side.
mmmmmm - just reading this made me salivate!
Mine would be really decent sausages, mash, peas and gravy! (I don't quite have the descriptive touch that you have, but it's still nice all the same!)
