Dinner thread?

[Sarvo]

Was down Haast for the last few days visiting and had a feed of some Beefallo put on for tea one night.

Hereford crossed with American Buffalo.
Had no idea this was possible, especially when looking at the animals running around together.

Have to say it was the best beef I have eaten. Ton of flavour. Not fatty but tasted like it was. Almost buttery.

Left with a chilly bag full so having some tonite.
Not a great pic on my phone as was pissing down and on dusk but the Buffalo just run with the beef. All great mates.

I heard of this some years ago - cannot remember where (think it was in Waikato - no not the beer Waikato Gadget)
Exact same words - how flavorsome and tender etc

All the rage has been Re the "Wagyu Beef" - I tried it (mate grazes 4-600 in Kapiti for Company that Exports to Japan etc) and yea-na - was OK - but I was somewhat disappointed after all the hype

We get 99% of our beef off the family farms which is Jersey, Hereford cross.

It is good real good. They're on excellent tucker year round and I thought had no equal and I have had all the rave cuts from all over the place.
But flavour wise, the Beefallo is better again. Maybe just coz it is new to me but very unique.
I have dibs on a half Beefallo next year. He is only a year old now.

Apparently they're crazy and jump out of or destroy any yard and fence. Hard to farm so maybe why they're not so well known.

My father always said the best beef he EVER ate was a Jersey/Hereford X
I wont ask exactly where these Beefallo are (I think I can guess) but any chance of buying some meat from them ??
How many do the breed per year ??

They have no long term plans. They ones they have, have destroyed enough of the farm apparently
The yearling I am getting half of is already as big as an adult. Brindle coat. I wouldn't mind the skin.

I will keep some aside for you when I buy mine.
I doubt they will breed them for sale as they were an accident in the first place.

HP Sauce... I survived boarding school dining due largely in part to HP. Good stuff, even though it's made in Netherlands these days(!?)

WTF is that? Looks like a snapper caught in the harbour in sea lettuce season!!

[Blisters]

Hahaha wish sea lettuce tasted like that! Then it'd have a use apart from fertilizer

Snapper with white wine, chillis and herbs
