  • In Britain I believe the basis of a ploughman's is a roll, cheese, pickle and onion.
  • Cornbread (maize bread) butter, a boiled or fried potato, and onion. (U.S.)
  • in England it is traditionally made up from :- A wedge of cheese (usually cheddar or stilton) A dollop of pickle (usually Branston) Pickled onions A wedge of crusty bread or bread roll and butter Can sometimes include - green salad, apple, egg it is all served up on a plate (but not in the form of a sandwich)
  • a thick piece of cheese,pickle and chunk of bread, and butter.
  • Perhaps there are different versions of a ploughman's lunch. In the olden (horse-drawn) days in Buckinghamshire it was a hunk of cheese and an apple. At lunchtime the farmer's wife, daughter or a helper would take beer out for the refreshment of the farmhands. If some farmhand happened not to drink then he would receive 'beer money' in lieu.
