Will Rob’s dessert live up to the excellent starter and main course that went before it? We’ll find out in part three of a new JOE.ie series, ‘Scrum Dine with me’.

“Prepare to fail, fail to prepare.” Rob Kearney, October 2014.

Followers of Roy Keane will quickly recognise that there’s something not quite right with the above quote, but it was one of only a few minor mistakes made by Rob Kearney in the kitchen.

JOE.ie teamed up with Leinster Rugby and Optimum Nutrition for a new series we’ve dubbed ‘Scrum Dine with Me’ and in episode three, Rob cooked up his patented protein pancakes for his esteemed guests, Devin Toner and Kevin McLaughlin.

Devin and Kevin had set the bar quite high in previous episodes but apart from a flip attempt gone wrong, Rob came through with flying colours.

Between getting Roy Keane quotes wrong, speaking about the tradition of the pancake recipe in the Kearney family and even referencing the Boring Kearney account that has become ridiculously popular on Twitter, Rob was certainly enjoying himself and we’d like to think it showed in his dish.

Check out how he got in the video above.
