Add to your enjoyment
All we are looking to do - is to add to your enjoyment of our Premium Quality Meat and Poultry - by opening possibilities that will encourage you to explore other dishes that you may not normally associate with the regular Cuts you buy - such as the Veal Bolognaise below
But that was just a start - and is still work in progress!
After the extremely popular Launch of our first Recipes by Methods of Cooking - Thrifty Slow Cooker Recipes - we have completed adding further Methods of Cooking, so you have a full Compendium of recipes for each of the most used Methods of Cooking
Apart from a basic introduction - each method of cooking lists the recipes in type of Meat order so you can see at a glance what options you may wish to enjoy
We start by looking at the three Basic ways of Meat Preparation listed below:
Cooking Methods
Cooking Methods can first be split into three broad categories as follows:
1. Dry Heat Cooking
Dry heat cooking works without the presence of any moisture, Stock, or Water. Instead, it relies on the circulation of hot air or contact with fat to transfer heat to foods.
Temperatures of 150°c or hotter are used to create browning, a reaction where the Amino Acids and Sugars in food turn brown and create a distinct aroma and flavour.
The unique scents of toasted Bread or seared Meat are both examples of dry heat cooking at work.
2. Moist Heat Cooking
As the name indicates, moist heat cooking relies on the presence of liquid or steam to cook foods.
This method can be used to make healthy dishes without any added fat or oil. It's also a great way to tenderize the tough fibres in certain Cuts of Meat, like Beef Chuck or Brisket.
When cooking fibrous Vegetables and Legumes, moist heat cooking softens the food until it reaches the perfect tenderness. Unlike dry heat cooking methods, moist heat cooking will not produce a browned crust.
3. Combination Cooking
Combination cooking utilizes both dry and moist cooking methods.
Foods are cooked in liquids at low heat for an extended period of time, resulting in a fork tender product. This technique works with the toughest Cuts of Meat, gradually breaking down fibres until they melt into the liquid.
From these three basic methods of cooking, we have created individual Tabs on our Website for:
• Roast Recipes
• Sauté/Pan fry Recipes
• Grill Recipes
• Griddle Recipes
• Barbecue Recipes
• Braise Recipes
• Stew Recipes
• Slow Cooker Recipes
• Pressure Cooker Recipes
• Sous Vide Recipes
• Air Fryer Recipes
Click on a method of cooking - and immediately you have a list of all Recipes for differing species of Meat - with recipes using that method of cooking
So now you can select your recipes by Product - or Method of Cooking Recipes, Less than 30 mins Recipes for Midweek Meals, Thrifty Cuts Recipes - and Each months Seasonal Top Viewed Recipes
Your own signature recipes
As you create your own signature recipes, you'll know how to use dry cooking to achieve a crispy, brown exterior on Meats, or how to use moist cooking to keep your Meats fork tender. When needed, you'll know when to use a combination of dry and moist heat to transform tough Cuts of Meat - into succulent, juicy morsel - or feasts.
At a glance
Recipes clearly show preparation and cooking times at the top of the short recipe description - to help in making your choice – simply and quickly.
And once you have made that choice - either click on the recipe title to go to the recipe - or click on the Cuts and Joints listed at the bottom of the short description - to go to the product page - where you can add to your order
Unlike a Cookery Book - we are adding new Recipes in the same consistent format - so it’s a living, breathing format - to reflect:
• What is in Season
• What is New and exciting
• What Recipes you think we may have missed out on
