    As someone who lives in the UK, I do have a best scotch egg experience: I was working as a builder’s labourer at the time and my boss was the quintessential Northern hard man . Gruff. Tough. Vastly disliked me for being a Londoner.
    Anyway.
    We were working on a roof at the time, and the client had left us some fancy scotch eggs as a lunchtime offering. My boss, unwilling to concede that chewing is a necessary first step of the digestion process, insisted that I ate the egg as quickly as possible to return to work, and decided to demonstrate how to eat a scotch egg in a single bite. Friends, he jammed the snack in his mouth (not unlike Andrew) and bit down. I will never forget the sound. It was, as the kids would say, a ‘cronch’. It was not the mellow sound of a man biting through meat and egg, no. It was the sound of a man biting through a boiled egg with the shell still on, with some deep fried meat in the way.
    Long story short, he had a funny turn and threw up, and we all got to go home early. And my scotch egg was delicious.

    Just a heads up! The pub recipe I use actually calls for less sausage around the egg. You cover that egg in a TON of sausage! It’s a thick layer and I’d say that’s why it’s not cooking all the way through. When I do them, I soft boil them just enough to where I can still peel them, and then I actually bake them. By the time the sausage is done, the whites inside solidify and the yolk is still gooey. Hope this helps!

    My most interesting scotch eggspereance was while I was going to a camping event with my group in the SCA (live action medieval reenacting) I told my friend how to make them and he volunteered to pre-make 2 dozen for the group for breakfast. Saturday morning I awoke to the smell of him finishing warming them up in a pan and smelling the wonderful aroma of a camp fire and cooked meat. I got one and drooled with anticipation and took a bite and immediately herd and felt the unmistakable crunch of eggshell. He followed my directions to a T but I was under the assumption he would have the common sense to shell the eggs... No one ever made scotch eggs for the group again.

    Okay the lesson is clear: For a soft-boiled Scotch Egg, poach your eggs to a runny consistency and chill them so that everything inside has solidified, THEN proceed by encasing them in the sausage cocoon and prepping for frying.
    By having the eggs cooked to the consistency you know you want them at and then chilling them so they're ready after a deep fry, you're treating them the same way you would a mozzarella stick.

    Andrew, I love that you tried so hard to make the yolk runny. But, as an English/Scottish person, I want to be straight with you and say that my Grandma never once made me a Scotch Egg with a runny yolk. They were always set, and I love them that way. Also, wrap the sausage and egg in a hot water pastry and turn them into Scitch Egg Cornish Pasties. They are fecking delicious!!!!

    So, I was in a play that used a proper liquor cabinet and called out using cognac, but our bottle was Jack Daniels and an actress called this out as something that the audience would notice. So some of our cast decided we should get a bottle of actual cognac to make sure by the opening we would have the right bottle. I had also informed this same group about the concept of Scotch Eggs for the first time. That night we went to the grocery store, got a bottle of cognac, a pound of sausage, breadcrumbs, and some eggs. The four of us downed a fifth of cognac and fried up some Scotch eggs. I remember holding the bottle so one friend could chug while he fished the egg out of the oil. This is my best Scotch egg experience.

    My best Scotch Egg experience: I had just hurt my foot really bad, and was limping around town. Life was not going great. A friend of a friend I had only met recently saw me and pulled over to say hi. We decided to step into the bar that was right there and get food. Scottish pub called Mac's. Ordered me a Scotch Egg. Burnt my tongue. Was delicious. That dude is now, five years later, one of my best friends.
    Worst Scotch Egg experience: Waited in a 45 minute line for food at the Renaissance festival to find out they were out of Scotch Eggs. Huge bummer.

    Place eggs in kettle, fill with cold water, switch on to boil, once boiled, allow to stand for 4 minutes.
    Pour out water.
    Extract perfectly boiled eggs.
    Save your thanks. I'm just a humble man.
