Mean drunk first to be given meal outside (5-6)
I believe the answer is:
tight-fisted
'mean' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'drunk first to be given meal outside' is the wordplay.
'drunk' becomes 'tight' (slang term).
'first to' becomes 'ist' (I've seen this in other clues).
'be given meal' becomes 'fed'.
'outside' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'ist' going inside 'fed' is 'fisted'.
'tight'+'fisted'='TIGHT-FISTED'
(Other definitions for tight-fisted that I've seen before include "near" , "Stingy (informal)" , "Mean" , "Miserly" .)
