To do something that is especially good,
being hot enough to fry gold.
I believe this term comes from the people responsible for the british TV sitcom 'Spaced' and the romantic zombie comedy 'Shaun of the Dead'. As far as I'm aware the man responsible is the
rotund comedy actor,
Nick Frost.
1. after viewing an especially good performance of any kind: "That performance was
fried gold"
2. after explaining a very cunning plan to someone: "Now
how's that for
a slice of fried gold?"
