I used to get shanks for Jack the Dingbat dog. I could only do it while OH was away though, otherwise he would fight the dog for the shank!

I have found that all the beef I have bought from woolies recently has a vinegary smell to it.  Vinegar is a trick they use on meat that is past its use by date.

Tonight  (when hubby gets home) we are having grilled porterhouse steak with mashed spud, sweet potato and peas. I have just made the yummiest sauce to go with it. Mushroms and onions sauteed in butter with coarse ground peppercorns, seasalt, garlic and bacon. Then I added cream and let it reduce. It is really, really  yummmmmmmm

hmmmm

I will remember that vinegar trick, thanks Kelso. The beef I buy is from Woolies but so far, it has been fresh and delicious. Roast beef tonight, roast potatoes with tarragon and a glass of burgundy.

 She'll have you for that.  I'd run if I were you.

 Once a chef, always a chef.

Thanks for the introduction, Poddy.

Now we may get a few new recipes to try? Getting tired of same old things, and I hate cooking. Something new may inspire me again.
