Тhere is no cuisine in the world about which there are as many jokes as there are about British cooking. Particularly the French are great in making jokes about British cuisine. For example, according to one French comic, hell is a place where the cooks are British.
Or do you know why the British serve mint sauce with lamb? According to French food critics, mint must be the only plant not eaten by sheep.
Of course, these all are exaggerations. The British bear them with their superior sence of humour.
British cuisine cannot present so many internationally renowned dishes as French cuisine does. But British cuisine has contributed a lot to the world's steak culture, and there are a number on inventions in British cuisine which are even adopted by the French-as for example the creation of sandwiches.
As for steaks, that has in the past been so British that British elite troops were called Beefeaters. And the term porterhouse for a special large kind of steak cuts has nothing to do with porters or luggage carriers but originates from British pubs where a special brand of dark beer, Porterbeer, was served, and where a snack consisted of a steak some 900 grams by weight-a single portion for a single man.
It's a character trait of the British not to be proud of their cuisine too mush. In case of their foods and drinks, the British learn a lot from the colonies conquered by the beefeaters all around the word. From East Asia (china) they adopted tea (and reexported the habit to India), and from India they adopted curry-style spicing.
However, they didn't just copy these food and drink habits but combined them with their own foodstuffs: tea with milk and curry with pastry(to make curried pies).
