Boiled the beef rib for a couple of hours and divided the rest of the detritus from Sunday dinner into meat and cod fat. Got half a pound of diced beef that I sliced up really fine and bunged it in the pot with the leftovers and now I've got a chilli bubbling away on the hob. The cod fat from the rib is rendering down to make some proper dripping fat for future roasting and frying duty :drool:

Do tell where you can get that in the South, I'd have to pay a good three quid more than that.

What with having a heavy cold and coming out of a chest infection I've only wanted 'clean' food. Salad and broth. Probably chicken broth again tonight!

I’m seriously thinking of becoming vegetarian.... I was told today that when butchers find cancerous tumours in meat they just cut them out and still sell the rest... mostly just mince it!!.... WTF?? :paranoid:

Medallions of Pork Filet (au jus) on a splodge of Roast Parsnip and Chestnut puree, sliced green beans and a Potato Gratin. I have Bramley Apple Crumble and Custard for pud, washed down with a glass or three of a nice crisp Albariño. :drool:

That "splodge" sounds good.

It's just jacket spuds with cheese & coleslaw in our house tonight. Feeling lazy.

That is true!
I watched a programme with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall when he was campaigning about battery hens. It showed some of the conditions the birds were kept in. It also did an undercover bit where they showed the birds being prepared for supermarkets, and they said if a bird has cancers or cage burn infections, they just chop of the affected part, and use the rest. It was vile :pukeup:

It’s put me right off tbh... I literally couldn’t eat the meat on my plate yesterday wondering if it had cancer! :thud:
