Well, I won't be from tomorrow as I am throwing a BBQ party at my apartment.
It's been about 5-6 years I think but have decided that I can afford to buy the meat that has been made after the animal has been given a good quality of life, plus I really am into cooking so and have a few cookbooks that are more or less useless without cooking an animal.
I am starting with simple meats on Friday and am adding my own home made rubs and marinades (Teriyaki on salmon, fennel,cumin,salt and pepper on pork escallopes etc)
and am very looking towards eating a genuine homemade burger, rather than that from Quorn or Cauldron.
So, I need some suggestions from you meat eaters, if you could eat just ONE more meal with meat in it what would you have?
It could be takeaway food like dominos pizza, restuarant meals or home cooked, basically enlighten me to what I have been missing all these years!
-
Does shrimp or lobster count as meat in veg-head land? If it does, I'd have large amounts of grilled lobster.
-
They certainly do count as meat.
Nice suggestion, I've never tried Lobster, gives me a reason to make tarragon butter too.
-
Adult chickens. Well it does depend actually, I've never had it "plain" as I/my family always cook it with some form of curry so I am not sure how exactly it would taste without being cooked in curry.
Also I do love me some Lamb Duri, some tasty stuff that is.

Brazilian Picanha.

You eat it with the fat. It's my favorite meat! It tastes so good. Awfully bad for cholesterol though.
-
Be careful!
Your body hasn't digested meat in years, so you should eat only very small portions at a time when re-introducing it to your diet. Otherwise, you'll get sick.
-
Eat loads of meat, screw your body! You gotta eat at least 10 pounds of beef to grow a sizable tuft of chest hair. Be a man, don't get pushed around by the human body!
-
You got to get yourself sick or your a pussy. Pump it up. Go to KFC get the chicken sandwich made out of chicken instead of bread.
-
My little brother became a vegetarian when he was 10 years old. He's now 33, and he has started eating fish and seafood within the last few months. I think because his wife's family are farmers, and they probably think it's weird to be a vegetarian. Anyway, any time he got some meat in his food, even accidentally like grease or something, he used to get violently ill. I would follow fluffy's advice.
-
Yeah, don't listen to the jokers. You could get violently sick if you eat too much meat all at once.
Start with something smaller and easier to digest, like chicken soup broth or a small slice of chicken sandwich meat. The leaner the meat, the better. Don't go for something dark.
-
Eat pork. Some febras never hurt anyone. They're light and delicious.

Oh right, I hadn't thought of that, thanks.
Also thanks for not turning this into a thread about how you like a big sausage!

Ziiing, that was pretty harsh, but to be expected!
I agree with Fluffy though. You really should start off with light broths and such before your BBQ. Have some small amount of meat every day until then.
-

Hehe... I know when to be serious, that's all. Your health was hanging in the balance, so I had to say something. ^_^
-
Agreed, white meat is the best. Turkey and/or chicken breast, especially.
-
As everone said, start off small, but when you get to full blown carnivore for my money you just can't beat a good T-Bone steak. Medium to medium-well done. No Sauce or any of that rubbish, it just dilutes the flavour.
-

Seriously thank you, I definitely will take it easy to start off with.
Plus the Sausage joke was light hearted and in jest, but you knew that any way!
-
Okay, okay. Take it easy. Don't get sick. But in a few months, you better be eating whole cows raw. Or else:

As much as I like curry... fuck man... You have never lived. Try food with out lacing it with curry or other forms of indian shit. Your life is a hollow shell if you haven't tried a nice roast chicken or a steak or, you know... other good foods.
Oh and Monkeroony, This is the best decissions of your life. Welcome back to real food. Give me a call when you can handle bacon explosion!
-
You gotta have a real good roast bird with thyme, salt and pepper. Simple and delicious.

Well by that I meant at home mainly, the majority of my chicken eating days is with curry.
Obviously I've had chicken in other variation like from Nandos or a chicken burger or spicy wings, but honestly I just don't like them as much, too much grease for me.

Slap your mother in the face and tell her you want a roast chicken seasoned ONLY with a bit of salt and pepper...
Then if there is any left over slap it between some plain white bread with an unhealthy dose of halmens Mayonaise and a bit of salt and get ready to taste bud ograsm.
There is nothing worse then not having veriety... Trust me my mother has this thing about putting potatoes with everything and after a while I had to say FUCK YOU, NO MORE TATOS.

Lost me right there buddy.
-
Mayonaise is black man's Kryptonite.
-
Why?
-
Why?
Because it is pure American honkie red-neck in it's most liquid state.
Also, it tastes fucking gross.
-
Whats wrong with you people. Mayo is delicious.
If I had to eat ANY food every day of my life I would be bored out of my mind.
LIVE A LITTLE AKI!
-
You do realize there is a lot lot more curry dishes in existance than those offered at your local restaurant, right Sharky? :lol:
Further more, it's a really generic term and basically the entire South Asian cuisine is attributed to it.

Cool story whitey.

garlic. Need to add some garlic sauce. It's great.

Maybe it's a British thing but Mayonnaise is used in most Sandwiches made that are sold in shops here.
Did you know that in the US 70% of cheese sold is processed?
That stuff doesn't taste right at all, the only place is on a dirty fast food hamburger.
Anyway, the BBQ went really well.
I made a teriyaki glaze for salmon out of dark soy, garlic, maple syrup and fresh lime with zest, cooked it in foil for 25 minutes until it was flaky.
That and fennel,cumin,salt and pepper ribs went down well and suited the coconut sweet potato mash I made too.
As I had craved a burger for many years I made a great one, 250g mince, onion, paprika, fresh coriander (cilantro) dijon mustard, egg yolk and salt and pepper mixed and BBq'd to perfection.
Served in a toasted sour dough bun with horseradish and black pepper mayo, rocket fresh tomato and melted english chedder.
As you may be able to tell I am hungry right now and I also like cooking way too much.

Maple Syrup with Fish?
You just blew my fucking mind.
Also, glad to hear it all went well. I suggest some lamb when you're up to it!

If you changed your eating habit from vegetarian to something, I bet you should have considered many things. One of these is to think what would be the effect of this to your health and body. Will it give you enough energy to go for a day of physical activities?
-
Eating meat is great!
Sure I feel bad about it. But when I have the munchies I enjoy the saucy textures of good old cow.
-
If you are not longer for vegetarian, I think that you commit some changes for your lifestyle. However, if we see those improvements, you might be needed to continue that changes. Or else, may you be able to back with the combination from the vegan foods.
I'm not sure what you're saying here, what is wrong with my lifestyle?
I play golf, socialise and work full time. I also feel healthy, am at my ideal weight and have no ailments and walk 5 miles per day.
I do not know you so I assume it's just a poorly constructed sentence.
Anyway, for what it's worth I still mainly am vegetarian; I will maybe eat fish once or twice a month- and perhaps any other kind of meat once a month. I only buy free range or organic and like to buy from local suppliers.
It does make life easier for social occasions, and Christmas this year will be simpler, I will probably still make a cheese and parsnip roulade ( http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/type ... ffing.html (http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/type-of-dish/party-food/roulade/cheese-and-parsnip-roulade-with-sage-and-onion-stuffing.html)) but will also have a belly of pork prepared too ( http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/gall ... cider.html (http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/galleries/new-ideas-for-Christmas/slow-braised-belly-pork-with-bacon-apples-and-cider.html)).
Oh and I am planning on making my own pork pie and piccalilly.

I wouldn't take JayC too seriously Monkeroony. Based on his post count, history of bizarrely worded sentences and sig link to a search engine optimization site, I have an inkling that he may have been a spambot. Since that's not confirmed, we have yet to take any action. If JayC would like to prove his realness, I will humbly apologize for thinking he is a robot.

Ah I thought something was a bit weird!

Oh my gawd, I wish I could visit your place for Christmas. xDD Sounds like you host some rather nice social gatherings!
Thanks for the recipe links, though. I suppose I could still cook this stuff for myself and my roommate. ^_^ Just too bad that I don't have more people to share it with...
-
Thanks!
I'm just a bit obsessed with cooking, I find it strangely relaxing!
