Once lockdown is at a level that we can go have a dop we must do so. There is a bloody great steak joint near Brickmakers called Sticky Fingers. Owned by wife and husband. Husband makes a big fire and braais all the meat in front of you and wife runs the front of house with a great personal touch. Should go have a proper T Bone there when this all done.

Going to St Francis this weekend, although it seems I will be indoors most of the time

I found a guy close by who reconditions upright fridges. Complete new motor refit and gas and a clean with new grids. We snatched up a few. When his batch came in he called us and we went and chose our fridges. Anyway he had tons of those undercounter bar fridges. At 2k a piece. Probably out of hotels...was tempted to get a few for the bar at home.

[Chilli]

Braaied pork on Friday night and beef filet yesterday.
Saturday was freezing cold so made a lamb curry.

Nailed the camping braai on the weekend, thanks for the recipes Chilli.

Both nights I did massive bonfire and then pulled out the coals from the bottom to put in the braai, worked a treat. Ribs went down well as well as over 50 sausages and two packs of wors.

I also did a huge chuck of sirloin that must have weighed over 2kg by charring it on the bonfire and then letting it look slowly on the braai, came out crispy on the outside and soft and pink inside. All done with one hand whilst the other held an umbrella; we had a huge thunderstorm hit us but thankfully the misses kept me topped up with red wine.

Umbrellas are not masculine. Poncho or just a shirt.

80% of that would have been goat meat anyways.

actually it was the best beef I've had in years. Someone brought it from Shoprite.

Nah, in Kenya they eat hippo and giraffe. Takes longer to cook, but if you put it in the microwave first....

The beef in Zambia was excellent.

Same in Zim. But here they don't really age it properly. It's so tough my teeth go on edge just thinking about some of the meals I've had.

I've come around to goat. If done properly nyama-choma style with plenty of salt and a cold beer, it can be very pleasant.

Nothing wrong with goat, very similar to mutton. Just don't eat to much, you might develop a stutter.

[assfly]

Coat, door, etc!

[average joe]

In Moz they "braaid" for us once, they took the whole carcass and tied it to a long stick, made a big fire and placed the carcass next to it. Almost like a vertical spit braai. Anyways, I've been around meat a lot in my life and that thing looked nothing like anything I ever slaughtered. I decided it was safer to stick to the prawns.

Back in the Strand I the local butcher had my phone number and whenever he acquired some goat he gave me a call. Lean with good texture and taste and eventually preferred it over the tasteless lamb.

We used quite a bit of goat in the UK when I was working there. loin, rack and then made burger patties.

Curry goat

[average joe]

There seems to be a mutual dislike of goat meat under Afrikaners for the most part. Perhaps it's the crazy eyes. I tried keeping a few on the farm once as you can turn a good profit when the agaliegalies have their ramadoe but they're naughty fokors. They like to climb on everything. They'll destroy the garden and climb on top of your car. Trying to keep them in a pen is near impossible as well. You have to tie ketties to their necks to try and stop them from going through fences.

[‘tsek]

Goat’s ok, dogs don’t seem to mind it.

Had loads growing up, the muttonny smell just ruins it for me now, although properly prepared it’ll do. Just much rather have anything else!

[Chilli]

We are spoilt with the quality and price of red meat in SA.

'n Bok is 'n bliksem. I grew up on a sheep farm and goats were definitely frowned upon in that community. I think part of that stems from the fact that they, literally, eat everything and, in huge numbers, can cause environmental havoc.
Nothing wrong with the meat, though.

[OomStruisbaai]

Dipping goat vs sheep. Day VS night.

[Sards]

the missus had prepared everything and then ..load shedding...

Chucked the meals in the Diablo and vok me..those Nachos tasted brilliant. I was like a gluttonous slob devouring that with my fingers.

Mexican food on the braai is definitely worth investigating more

[TB63]

Probably will get spat on for this..But, coated ribs from the butcher in garlic salt, onion salt, chilli flakes,paprika,turmeric.. Vac sealed them for 24 hours in fridge, cooked them one side of gas BBQ farthest away from the heat, 90 Deg heat for 7 hours sat in a rack over cast iron skillet, basted in own juices over high heat for 10 mins..

Fudge me they were nice..

As long as you didn’t use a microwave it’s fine.

[TB63]

Only for my plums...

Actually, did a rhubarb tatin to finish..

Melt about lots of but not too much sugar in a frying pan,
Add finely cut root ginger, then some butter when it goes brownish,
Take off heat, layer rhubarb in 2 layers,
Return to heat, low, then go for large glass of wine, oh, cover it..
When soft/half pissed, take off heat and chill, both of you..
Cut disc of puff pastry to cover, slap it on, chuck it in in oven 180 for 20 mins or so,
Flip over onto plate, or invert, whatever..
Serve and drink more wine, cream or something might be good..
Lurvely....
