Procedure satisfied brick carrier (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

method

'procedure' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'satisfied brick carrier' is the wordplay.
'satisfied' becomes 'met' (as in 'met the conditions of his contract').
'brick carrier' becomes 'hod' (I've seen this before).
'met'+'hod'='METHOD'

(Other definitions for method that I've seen before include "Fashion" , "Procedure or system" , "Process, esp. Stanislavsky's" , "System, perhaps even in madness" , "Way of doing something, even in madness (6)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
