That looks epic (and not in the 40K sense you understand)!
I have had carne asada pizza before here in the UK though
This is a funny thread, but these two posts should illustrate how food changes and grows as other cultures add their own take. Carne Asada has Latin American origins but is ending up on fries and pizza and is marvelous. Why can't a savory "pudding" be adapted to be sweet? In the land of diabetes this makes total sense!

Wikipedia's take on Yorkshire Pudding and Dutch Baby:
Yorkshire pudding is an English food made from batter consisting of eggs, flour, and milk or water. It is a versatile food that can be served in numerous ways depending on the choice of ingredients, the size of the pudding and the accompanying components of the dish. As a first course it can be served with onion gravy. For a main course it is often served with beef and gravy and is part of the traditional Sunday roast, but can also be filled with foods such as bangers and mash to make a meal. Jam and sugar can be added instead if served as a dessert.[1][2]
A Dutch baby pancake, sometimes called a German pancake,[1] a Bismarck, or a Dutch puff, is a typical example of the Americans taking something perfected by the British and ruining it in this case the the centuries old Yorkshire pudding
I was under the impression that in older times, "Yorkshire puddings" could were used before main meals, as a filler to help stretch the meat further. And they were also used as a sweet snack the next day - reheated and filled with jam.
The term pudding was coined for meat based puddings in the 16th-17th century, as when Yorkshire puddings were introduced, leading to the confusion as a sweet. Originally named not Yorkshire pudding, but as dripping puddings. They were cooked under the meat to catch the juices to help their calorific value, vital to ward of hunger.

I am seeing lots of people claiming that a true Yorkshireman knows that it is a savoury dish. Well it’s not any true Yorkshireman knows that you always make extra and eat them the next day with jam.

I was in Savanna last weakend. Was really excited to try some savory corn bread from this place call Husk. Turned out to be the most gak cornbread I've ever had.
The waitress asked why I didn't eat my 10 dollar cornbread and I just said it had no flavor. She asked me if I was from up north and I was like...I'm from florida - our cornbread taste good there. It was a legit burn.
Anyways...I love me some classic Yorkshire puddings. I can actually make them!

The amount of gravy is limited by the size of your meat (fnar fnar). You need the juices from the roasting pan to make gravy, therefore the amount of gravy is finite. The amount of Yorkshires is, however, only limited by your imagination. Ergo there will always be more Yorkshires than gravy.

You've never been to Yorkshire mate, there's Gravy rivers flowing through each village.

You can get a similar experience with a Sausage McMuffin from McDonalds. Just take the hashbrown and roll it over the sausage and egg.
Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.
I wonder how horrified our British friends would be if they saw how I fixed Corned Beef Hash.
Also, there's an Irish chain in the Indianapolis area called The Claddagh Irish Pub that does a phenomenal Irish Breakfast. Rasher bacon, black AND white pudding, bangers (a touch small for my taste, but I've yet to find a variety I like better than those served at 9 Irish Brothers) with the obligatory eggs, potatoes, and veggies (tomatoes or mushrooms, chef's mood dependent). It's pretty much my go to order at that place.
They also have a sammich called the Paddy Mac that is pretty god-tier. Good competition for the Molly Malloy at 9 Irish.

Born and bread in Donny. The river Don might be brown, sticky and warm but you don’t want to drink it

Yorkshires have always been the flexible food that can be eaten at any time. Yes they're at their best with your Sunday roast smothered in gravy, but as kids we used to have any leftovers (didn't happen often) later as a snack with jam.

Black Puddings are mostly harmless - now if you want something dangerous to hunt a wild haggis is a fearsome beast to take down!
Yeah America is really odd with food, they seem to like renaming everything wrong. Scones, cookies, biscuits I'm given to understand that most of their baked goods are wrongly titled!

Sausage Rolls are pleb food. We've had them for aeons. So plebby are they, I'm going to get some mini ones tonight for my tea.
Not to mention thinking that the "cronut" was some exciting new hipster food - and not just a yum yum, that Greggs has sold for years.
Still, if we're going to get upset over foreigners mucking about with our recipes, we'd probably better sort out spaghetti bolognese and every curry recipe in Britain. :(
