Pheasant and partridge season has now finished..... so pigeon and rabbit pies are now on. I love rabbit and leek.

Their pork scratchings are superb, but sometimes you get stuck behind someone placing a big order. Just before last Christmas, I found myself behind an aged couple and one of the things I overheard was "now, Boxing Day... how many geese did we reckon we'd need?"

Bleep1673 1,708 Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Whats the most creative thing you have done during lockdown? I did a Pork Shoulder chop, and covered it in Redcurrant Jelly, mustard, and chilli flakes last night, this morning I did a really healthy breakfast of Asda Raspberry, apple & Strawberry Granola, with Greek yoghurt, and half a sliced banana on top.

Futtocks 15,292 Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Last weekend, I did a slow dry roast of a joint of beef that was one of the few things left on the meat shelf in Sainsbury's when I went there. I set the oven to about 50 degrees C and let the joint gradually heat, using an internal thermometer probe to monitor. Then I held the internal temperature at 55 degrees (or whatever level of "done" you prefer) for about an hour. With a professional oven, holding an even temperature would be more controllable, but this was close enough for good results. The slow heating seals the outside of the meat, so you don't get much gravy, but all the juice stays inside. This roasting method also gives excellent cold cuts for sandwiches the next day... unless you eat the lot in one sitting! Rested for at least 15 minutes before carving, and served with asparagus, mushrooms and a potato salad with some horseradish mixed in. Quote "Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'.

MattSantos 866 Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Apologies if this is a duplicate, but i made a small 2k brisket the other week. Slow roasted with the view to bbq at the end. Didnt need the BBQ in the end, but still a bit disappointed. My steak cookery has been terrible recently. Last flank i did on the BBQ was a little flabby - suspect i salted too early and didnt let my BBQ get to a screaming hot stage. Thinking of getting a sous-vide gadget..

Futtocks 15,292 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 My corner shop has started selling these, so my lockdown nutritional needs are more or less met. Corn puffs like Cheesy Wotsits, but roast peanut flavoured. Quote "Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'.

Futtocks 15,292 Posted April 26, 2020 Report Share Posted April 26, 2020 The Co-op have just introduced a new "limited edition" Katsu Curry flavour of crinkle-cut crisps. A lot of the time, crisp flavours are a bit unconvincing, but these are nice! Quote "Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'.
