[Spikey M]

Pulled what mate?

[Disco]

Ewe must be joking.

[Ian]

Had a beef burger with 'jerk ox cheek' tonight at Drygate and it was bloody smashing. Had I know pulled sheep head was a thing I may have demanded that.

People would be flocking for it.

[Pepe]

Local place makes an elk sausage sandwich that is class. Will demand the head next time.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I've eaten sheep head before. I don't believe it was pulled though.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Tried Wendy's for the first time yesterday.

Baconator with bacon cheese fries, my word was it good.

[mugbull]

Wendy's has always weirded me the fuck out by having a little redhead girl with pigtails as its logo and mascot. In the US especially where TV commercials depict a hot babe in tight clothes with the exact same hairdo

I’m going to Slattery’s (https://slattery.co.uk/masons-dining-room) for the first time today.

Seems to have a good reputation, and it’s one of those places where apparently you have to book way in advance, but sometimes I doubt places like this are any better than a random cafe you might go cos it’s raining when you’re on a weekend away in a wanky village in the lakes.

[Giggles]

I was in a different Slatterys (https://slatterys.bar) last night o/

Back when I was Mert I attended numerous Sluttery's.

Nothing too fancy, first attempt at roast beef with a less than ideal cut (silverside) but cooked to a perfect medium rare thanks to using a thermapen.

Jamie Oliver's roast potatoes technique never fails to succeed, as much as I hate to admit it, the bastard.

[Giggles]

They both look fucking epic.

[Spikey M]

I would smash through that then nail the chef.

[phonics]

I had Malakoffs the other night which is some traditional Swiss dish. Like every other Swiss food it’s just a giant melted cheese ball with breadcrumbs. So good.

[Giggles]

I've ordered some Japanese stuff. Was going to get sushi but ended up getting one of this box things. God knows what'll arrive.

[randomlegend]

That beef looks brilliant. A thermometer makes stuff like that so much easier and more consistently successful.

[Giggles]

I've one of them in the drawer but I've never used it as it only has a rotary dial on it and probably has a mind of it's own.

Speaking of, I got a 500g boneless rib today on offer for €3.50 and I haven't the foggiest how to cook a lump of that size. Would I be better just cutting it into 2 or 3 steaks?

EDIT: That.

Thermapen's are great.

Thermapen's are great.

That would be good (though I'd get a cheaper alternative, as soon as I seen the site I knew it'd be a rob). I think the yoke I have is left in the meat in the oven.

[randomlegend]

Nah, they're worth the price.

That ribeye looks beast. You could sear it really hard in a really smoking hot pan to give it a crust and then put it in the oven but you'd probably need to use a thermometer to get it cooked right in the middle.

That ribeye looks beast. You could sear it really hard in a really smoking hot pan to give it a crust and then put it in the oven but you'd probably need to use a thermometer to get it cooked right in the middle.

I'd looked up one that said sear it, then 10 mins at 230°C, then 20 mins at 160°C. Might give that a try.

[Giggles]

I've ordered some Japanese stuff. Was going to get sushi but ended up getting one of this box things. God knows what'll arrive.

That was a lot better than I expected it was going to be and, considering there was a big tub of miso with it too, it was cheap at €9.90.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The bento box is a wondrous thing.

[Spikey M]

You're better than that muck, Giggs.

Steak and chips tonight. :drool:

[SvN]

That looks incredible, and I'm not even a huge fan of Japanese cuisine.

[SvN]

As for my own food, I'm off to a local Italian restaurant to celebrate the pregnancy with the in-laws. I've been there a few times and it's a bit of a mixed bag, but they get the basics right.

[Spikey M]

They're family though, so you have to put up with it.

[Giggles]

That looks incredible, and I'm not even a huge fan of Japanese cuisine.

I really was very surprised when I opened it. Everything in it was class too. Sticky rice :drool:

Lot to be said for Wagamama's too.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Where did you order that from Giggles? Looks quality.

Just Eat, wasn't a big chain or anything.

[hfswjyr]

That was definitely one thing I noticed in the UK - you guys haven't caught up with proper good Japanese food yet. That bento box looks OK, but I'd expect to find much better.

Congrats SvN!

Looks a bit suss.

[Giggles]

You two are practically in Asia though.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The Koreans used to get bento boxes delivered in fairly regularly to the office. We'd take turns putting them in the microwave, box and all, after taking the sellofane wrapping off of course. Proper cheap and nasty, Giggles's one looks far better, but they all have one thing in common which is the tube of soy sauce of a size only otherwise seen for eyedrops and probably anti-venin for snake bites. You need tiny little fingers to be dealing with that.

[Giggles]

I threw it out as I have my own big bottle of gluten free soy.

[hfswjyr]

You two are practically in Asia though.

Basically, yeah.

We have nowhere near the amount of variety of South American, African or Mexican foods here as you've got in the UK.

[Giggles]

Basically, yeah.

We have nowhere near the amount of variety of South American, African or Mexican foods here as you've got in the UK.

I'm not in the UK so I'm not sure about the South America or African stuff. We get a fair bit of Mexican here but those two would be extremely rare to non-existent.

[Spikey M]

You might get South American and African stuff in that London and other shitholes. But other than Nando's - the Rip off cunts - I don't know of any restaurants that fall within those categories.

[Jimmy Floyd]

We are basically a nation of curry houses, Chinese muckhouses and cheap Italian places run by the descendants of POWs, if you find anything better then you've had a good night.

[Pepe]

Would love to see what passes as Mexican in Ireland.

[Giggles]

Would love to see what passes as Mexican in Ireland.

I mostly make my own from what I buy in the Mexican supermarket. Also went on their tamale making class but the husks are a bitch to get, always sold out within hours of stock coming in.

This would be my favourite 'eating out' place.

http://www.azteca.ie



.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Anything 'Mexican' in these isles (sorry Giggles) is just a shit version of what the Americans think is Mexican.

[Spikey M]

Yeah, we don't really do Mexican. It's Tex-Mex. Probably poor Tex-Mex.

[Pepe]

Singular: tamal
Plural: tamales

Over here it is either tex-mex stuff or wanked-up BS where they add fifty ingredients to an otherwise simple dish just so it sounds cool on the menu. Sorry, 'bill of fare'.

[Pepe]

You can make some top of the line stuff just by buying a bunch of dry peppers though.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Those burrito places in cunt-filled parts of London where you can pay eleven quid for someone's morning dump in a corn wrap are a real disgrace, almost as much as the places that try to sell you five pound sandwiches by using a French theme.

[Giggles]

https://bit.ly/2HomUzo

That's the place. Their own website is shite.

I have no idea if it's Mexican or texmex but it's nice.

[Giggles]

You can make some top of the line stuff just by buying a bunch of dry peppers though.

I always keep a stock of those either from the aforementioned supermarket or South Devon chilli farm.

[Pepe]

Starting with burritos is always a bad sign but then you get to the entrees and the tacos and it redeems itself. Then you get to ciabattas. :harold:

Probably better than most shit over here.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Do Mexicans ever leave Mexico except to go north? I don't think I've ever met one over here, and in London you get absolutely everyone.

[Pepe]

The ones that do are too white to be easily recognized I guess.

[Spikey M]

I worked with a Mexican lady once. That's the only Mexican I've ever met.

[Queenslander]

Brisbane is chock full of Mexicans and Brazilians learning English.

[Giggles]

Few and far between too. Loads of Africans and Brazilians, so maybe we'll see more of the other two restaurants pop up.

[Queenslander]

Im such a pretentious twat with Asian food. These 2 places were the locals growing up.

I’ve been smashing steak for the past fortnight. Proper crustage in the pan then shit-tonnes of butter and garlic, served with phat af chips and fine beans. I am the lord of this cow dominion.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Do folk here tend to get their meat from a supermarket or butcher? I've always been the supermarket for convenience and price, bar the odd steak, but will try and make an effort to go with the butcher and see how much of a difference there is across a range of meats.

[Giggles]

I normally do the supermarket as the butcher's chicken breasts last about 3 hours before they're gone off. I know most of the places that do Super Valu's meat anyway and it's always very good quality.

For anything specialist like briskets, etc I order online from The Premium Butcher and they deliver to work.

I've become really fussy about meat lately, and I'm not really sure why. I used to just buy the cheapest meat available, but after Tesco substituted a Sirloin for a bit of Fillet Steak it seemed to change something in my soul. I can't eat 20% fat mince or any of that muck now.

[Jimmy Floyd]

There is a big difference between meats, you really get what you pay for. I eat a lot less of it than I used to though. When I finally move out into my own place shortly I can see myself eating it only 1-2 times a week but high quality.

That said, the butchers around here must all drive Ferraris and holiday in Barbados with the prices you pay.

[igor_balis]

Sainsbos meat is fucking shit. Annoyingly rugby's only proper butchers is three miles out of the town centre and I don't drive. Wanting to buy good meat is the only time I regret never learning.

[Spikey M]

Muscle Food deliver decent meat.

[Clunge]

Lidl steak is excellent, but it does rely a bit on sifting through all the packs/cuts to find some good fat marbling, the right thickness, etc, and cooking accordingly.

Look at two packs of Lidl sirloin and one will be half a centimetre thick and as wide as a plate. The next will be the size of a phone but an inch thick. Obvs requires completely different cooking/use (the thin one I'd cut into strips and use in a stir fry, the thick one cook like a piece of filet or something like that).

Tbh, a lot of it is in the cooking - Sainsbury's meat has always been fine to me (just picked up a pretty good looking ribeye for a few quid) but if you cook it straight from the fridge, no seasoning and annihilate it, it's going to be shit. I think it was James Martin who really drummed into me the importance of getting meat out a good few hours in advance of cooking so it's room temperature. And let a bit of oxygen get to it too. I tend to take the packet out the fridge 3/4 hours in advance and then cut a good opening in the packet at least an hour in advance.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

I do wonder at the sort of comments along the lines of 'take your meat out 15 minutes before needed to bring up to room temperature'.

These people clearly have no clue how long this would actually take.

[Spikey M]

I take mine out atleast an hour before and rub in oil, salt and pepper. Then, when cooking, add as much butter to the pan as possible. Ideally you want to be boiling the cunts in butter rather than frying them.

Need to buy butter actually, I only have half fat spread.

[Spikey M]

Post results :drool:

[Giggles]

I'll be lynched as the Mrs will be having some too so I'll have to make it well done :(

I might buy her some chicken while I'm getting the butter.

[Spikey M]

I have this issue with the mrs. We just sear the pair of them on high, take mine out whilst she ruins hers, then chuck mine back in for another minute per side before dishing.

[Giggles]

When it's steak I'd normally put hers on for 6 minutes a side and mine for 1 a side to finish together so they can rest together. I'll be finishing this in the oven and having it with normal dinner though instead of chips.

[Spikey M]

Can't you cut it in half and cook separately?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Just give her the end pieces they'll be more done.

She'll probably complain after that it was tough.

[Giggles]

She's not really into beef at all anyway but it's the only meat left in the house. I'll walk to Aldi in the morning and grab something white.

It's a bit over done for me and the peas are an abortion, but I would give that a good seeing to.

[niko_cee]

Peas or (broad) beans?

[Boydy]

They're marrowfat peas by the look of them.

[Giggles]

Tinned garden peas. I'd have had marrowfats only she was having some too. That's why the beef is a bit more well done too.

Got given a pack of sausages from back home so it's been sausages agogo this week. Is there anything better than having to cook and then your recipe is just 'shove a bunch of potato, lentils, onions, peppers and courgette into a tin and set it to 180?

Spoke about it recently on here- I ordered a sous vide machine the other night, it arrived ahead of time so couldn't wait to give it a go- https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07HWXF256/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Grabbed a fillet steak out the co-op and got to work. It managed to look absolutely awful once you take it out the water but after searing for a little over a minute on each side it's soon rectified. Might give it a go with a blow torch next time.

[Spikey M]

Yeah. That's not gone well.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

Yeah. That's not gone well.

How so?

That's how steak looks when cooked sous vide and before searing. Perfect medium-rare in the end with a nice crust.

https://youtu.be/Np0LMwqtOVM?t=316

[Spikey M]

That's not how steak looks full stop

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

What? Medium-rare?

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I prefer mine blue.

[Giggles]

The bit on the fork looks bang-on to me.

[phonics]

Yeah its just the way sous vide cooks, makes all food look off putting.

[niko_cee]

Looks more on the medium end of medium rare (which is fine) and I reckon those machines are probably quite good if you want it to be more cooked, but not over cooked, but if you don't mind (or prefer) it to be more on the rare end of the spectrum then I'm not sure what it adds over just cooking in a pan/on a griddle.

I suppose maybe it would come into its own with a really substantial piece of meat, but then you could always do what Heston said years ago and blow torch the outside and then put it in an oven at 50 degrees for a day. Practical.

[Alan Shearer The 2nd]

You'd just set the temperature to what you want though, whether it's blue or well done.

The whole idea is you can get a consistent result all the way through the thickness of the meat.

[Giggles]

I just made a pizza. "Rustic" would be the polite way to describe the appearance but by fuck it was good.

Went to Stack & Still last night for the first time and it was pretty decent. I think I'd always go on the Tuesday for the cheapness, though. At full price you're probably getting a lot of stodge and less of the good stuff.

Unless that's sedatives that Spikey has, er, spiked me with to get at the kebab.

Or Mahow to get at your kebab, if you know what I mean.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I'd rather have Mert's kebab.

[Kikó]

I'm going here tonight German Döner Kebab.

[John]

That's another branch of the place Ian's been going to. Not sure why we'd need their postcode though, is this a desperate call for someone to go with you?

[Ian]

Informal kebabs.

Get the lahmacun one, Kikó .

No one showed ffs.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Clearly THE GROUP love you more, should have asked them.

[Kikó]

Go die in a fire.

[Kikó]

Actually went elsewhere and it threw in some sort of mayonnaise sauce on it which added to the average kebab experience.

[SvN]

One of those opened in Southampton recently. I've been meaning to go - how was it?

Oh, nevermind.

[Kikó]

Yeah - my German mate says it's the best you can get in the UK (in comparison to the German stuff).

[Ian]

My friend's German boyfriend regularly goes there with her so even if he thinks it's the best of a bad lot that possibly still counts for something.

[Giggles]

Very informal.

[Kikó]

I went here yesterday https://tamarindandthyme.wordpress.com/2013/09/03/guyuan-the-secret-chinese-restaurant/

Some stuff was unbelievable (like lobster noodles and the dumplings) some were the type of things you'd rightly call the Chinese out for due to deviancy (duck tongue, pigs ear). BYOB as well.

[Spikey M]

Duck tongue? You've made that up for effect, right?

[Disco]

No, that's a real thing.

[Smjffy]

Those co-op crisps are brilliant. Proper crunch and taste.

[mugbull]

Lol at Brits discovering doner kebab for the first time

[SvN]

In the history of TTH, has anyone ever been as regularly off the mark and just plain wrong as mugbull? Not content with his shambolic showing in the Relationship Thread, he's now spreading his septic seed in here.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

He's a mong.

[niko_cee]

At least he didn't all it a 'gyro'.

German Doner Kebab - Kebab's done right sounds like the thing of nightmares though. Vorsprung Ducht Shashlik? No thanks. I'll stick with the Green Lanes.

John said something similar when Liverpool signed Andy Carroll and I said he was gonna be shit.

[randomlegend]

Yeah but John's a retard.

[niko_cee]

The number of people who didn't think Carroll would be shit must be vanishingly small.

[mugbull]

The number of people who didn't think Carroll would be shit must be vanishingly small.

No, you gave me shit for saying that as well

[mugbull]

Fwiw I don't even remember why I posted about doner kebabs but judging by the fact it was posted at 3:40 AM on Friday night I was blackout drunk and probably thinking about one

[niko_cee]

Well, if you say so.

I have my doubts.

[John]

John said something similar when Liverpool signed Andy Carroll and I said he was gonna be shit.

You're misremembering something here. I lolled long and hard at Liverpool spending thirty five million on that idiot.

It's possible I gave the account you were using to say he'd be great in an argument with yourself some shit.

[mugbull]

Nope, it was before all that multiple account stuff. I remember this specifically because I made your response into my post signature back on the old board once it became clear he was a mess. You were very confident I was wrong in saying he'd be shit and concocted one of your splendid little phrases to tell me off.

keep telling yourself you always knew etc

[niko_cee]

I've been very wrong about a good many Liverpool players (highlights include getting a Le Tallec shirt and thinking Christian Poulsen might be more physically suited to English football and therefore better than Javier Mascherano) but I very specifically remember the conversation I had with my dad the morning all that Torres/Carroll shit went down and whilst he was very much in the great specimen of a man camp I was very much not.

Thinking Benteke would be decent is a different matter.

[Lewis]

You must have already been far too old to have had that shirt when you did.

[niko_cee]

Yeah, I think I must have been 19.

They were simpler times.

[Dark Soldier]

Had an A+ burger last night

Pan seared thicc beef, crispy pancetta, melted mozzarella

[Pepe]

The state of that 'salad.'

[Dark Soldier]

Its there because its listed. Nae fucker eats it.

[niko_cee]

I was going to make some sort of disparaging comment about time travel and the north yesterday, but thought better of it.

Chopping boards and twee little frying baskets though?

[phonics]

The thing you notice after going back to the UK for the first time in a while is how much every city seems to be exactly the same place now.

[Ian]

Reminds me I haven't looked at We Want Plates in a while.

[Boydy]

The thing you notice after going back to the UK for the first time in a while is how much every city seems to be exactly the same place now.

Because of burgers?

[phonics]

Everything, the shops, the signage, what's culturally cool, everything.

[Boydy]

It's been that way for at least a decade.

[phonics]

Yeah I'd say around 2007 or so was when I first began to notice it.

[Ian]

Although to be fair in Glasgow certainly it feels like everything that isn't a boozer or a Greggs is a "gourmet" burger joint.

[phonics]

That's literally the world though. Geneva went from having one or two to now where they're like a bookies in Swansea. Every 3rd door.

The kids get their fries in a little shopping cart, proper jealous

[Lewis]

DS, out in public somewhere, taking a picture of his food. :harold:

[phonics]

DS was always a diva even when being an absolute scumbag.

Fully signed up hipster now lad, don't @ me

[mugbull]

Really nice burgers are really nice

[Giggles]

Insights.

[Bartholomert]

American cultural imperialism tbh.

[Jimmy Floyd]

The only British cities that are different from the others are a) London, and b) those with very old buildings still playing a major part in the look and feel.

Architects have been absolute wankers since about 1930 and there's no sign of it stopping.

Square sausage, haggis, fried onions, potato scone, poached egg, halloumi & hot sauce on a crispy Morton’s roll.

Come at me.

[Ian]

There's a weird combination of stuff going on in there that I dunno how I feel about.

One thing I am sure of, though, is that I don't get the love of Morton's rolls.

[Giggles]

I've just nailed a chicken fillet roll

Brunch :drool:

[Ian]

You could've just eaten it, you animal.

[Giggles]

Afterwards.

[Disco]

Yeah, there's just one too many 'not quite right' ingredients for me.

[niko_cee]

It's the Halloumi. What the fuck is that doing in there?

Poached egg over fried is a bit of a national disgrace as well.

[Spikey M]

Afterwards.

Was there not enough sauce?

Yeah, you're alright.
