I have been on the Internet searching for panties. Frilly panties. No, not the kind women wear.
This past Saturday was our Friends Dinner. It is an annual event where we host a meal for four couples we chum with. And we always try to have a very nice, sit-down meal. Ann tries to find something different to fix. This year we decided to revisit the crown pork roast.
As noted, I said, “revisit.”
The last time we served this; I went on the Internet and found a web site that told how to make those little white paper thingies that are placed on the exposed bones of the roast. Those little white paper things are called panties. (Do not ask me why, because I do not know why.) However, six-plus years have past since the last crown roast, and I have forgotten how to make the panties.
So, I went to my favorite search engine, Google, and typed in crown roast panties.
I found recipes for crown rib roasts. I found recipes for crown roast stuffing. I found photos of crown roasts with panties. I found stories of women who wore only panties while fixing a crown roast. (Remind me to decline her dinner invitation, if she ever invites me.) But, I did not find how to make the crown roast panties.
In my clicking on certain web sites that I thought would take me to my desired destination, I went to places that I should not and did not want to go, pornography sites. I saw lots of panties, but none on a crown roast. In fact, I saw panties on places . . . Well, that is another story for another time.
At one web site, my anti-virus guard was activated; I was told I had contracted some kind of virus. And this virus just happened to have, and offer, a virus removal program for a mere $49.95.
Fortunately, I use another virus cleaner I had previously installed. It safely removed the virus along with the ad that wanted me to spend $49.95.
I also visited places that spoke of roasting Matt Lauer, Dean Martin, etc.
In the end, I have yet to find how to make those paper panties that go over the exposed bones of a rib roast. However, I did see a variety of panties. But they won’t fit my need for the roast.
To close this, if you know how to make those paper panties, share the secret.

Funny, I just found out tonight, after many Christmas's of having crown roast with my mother- that these frills were called "panties" and to top it off, my mother was told that they were once called "bishop's panties" . . . DONT ask why, cuz we don't know either. This year our butcher could not provide our "panties" but we made them from a gold foil. Cut about 2-2 1/2 inch squares, fold in half and cut a little less than 1/4 inch down the folded half, then tape the bottom in a ring and place on the bone ends of the crown... voila you have crown roast panties... foil, colored paper whatever your flava! Experiment with different sizes till you find what you like :)
islanprincess65@comcast.net Sorry I didnt get this to you sooner. :)
Whoopsie... let me clarify that a bit better... Cut about 2-2 1/2 inch squares, fold in half and cut a little less than 1/4 inch strips down the folded half that end a little more than a 1/4 inch at the bottom end of the unfolded end, then tape the bottom in a ring and place on the bone ends of the crown. I hope that made a bit more sense... wish I could draw it for you.
