I can remember a couple of my dad's favorite foods and they were:
corn on the cob & veal parmagiano
My Dad died wayyyy back in 1970,but if i remember right,he loved roast beef and yorkshire pudding.

Dad was easy to please with foods and liked pretty much everything, but his favorite meal was Mom's roast beef, mashed potatoes, green beans, tossed salad. Mom would make it every Sunday except for Thanksgiving when she made turkey and Christmas when she made ham. We never got tired of roast beef on Sunday and came home for dinner until my then husband and I moved too far way to do so. She'd roast it until it was so tender you could cut it with a fork. It's still one of my favorite meals too. After we ate, we'd put a slice of bread on our plate and cover it with gravy and eat that too.
Dad also loved fresh garden tomatoes and grew them in season. He'd pick one off the vine, wipe it on his shirt
Donna,thats how us Brits make Yorkshire pudding,the beef drippings in the pan,wait untill the fat is smoldering then add the batter,so yummy with lots of gravy.

My sis-in-law used to remove the beef and pour the batter into the drippings in the pan. Delicious flavor!
If I were to make it today though, I'd separate the fats from the juices and discard the fats, then I'd use whole wheat flour for the batter. I should try that..if I'd only remember to do so..slim chance of that..LOL!!
I don't know if my
