Your Top 3 Cricket Tea Items!
« on: June 01, 2018, 08:15:18 AM »
Right chaps, being as it's a slow Friday and I've volunteered to take on tea duty tomorrow I thought I'd start a light-hearted thread on the only actually important thing in cricket - the teas.

As the title suggest, your top 3 items found on a cricket tea... (yes, I'm looking for inspiration!)

Cant go wrong with a bit of home made cake (as long as its not dry) but I think as long as there is variety everyone is happy.

What about doing a curry?  something mild for you, something explosively hot for the away team :)

Worst thing ive ever had as part of a tea is white bread with a dollop of hundreds&thousands on top. Pathetic effort for a pudding!

sandwiches that arent just the typical cheese/ham/tuna/egg

a good pasta salad (not just tune) anything with chorizo or bacon for me!

something hot whether its pizza, chips etc just to mix it up a bit

Cheese sandwiches should be compulsory! Hate a cricket tea when someone's got a bit carried away and gone all Heston Blumenthal on the sandwiches, keep it simple. Pizza is always a winner, but only if hot!

Fruit cake
Egg sandwiches
Wraps

Best ever we had an away game early season last year. Really cold. Club laid on hot dogs, with onions, three different types of sausage, relish, sauces the works. Very welcome given the weather!

Scones with jam & cream
Cheese & onion sandwiches - bread must be fresh, stale bread is a killer!
Crisps - need a bit of crunch, a disturbing 2018 trend in our teas is neglecting this area

Coronation chicken sandwiches.

Something warm - pizza, sausage rolls, chicken nuggets or chips always seem to go down well.

Decent chocolate cake (not a £1 swiss roll cut into paper thin slices!)

As a bonus item, fresh fruit is always a winner
