    Was good with rice and brocolli.
    Looks great Beaker but I'm pretty sure that cooking pork in a Tangine comes with equivalent trouble to Salman Rushdie's writing 'the satanic versus' - stay safe

    Didn't get a photo of dinner which was Sausages n Onions and gravy, was down the hatch pretty fast. But this was the view we had while we ate.

    Everything tastes good with a nice view

    Dinner tonight. Daughters plate.
    Charcoal bbq, ribeye and lamb chops. Mushroom sauce, mash Spuds with heaps of NZ butter. Green an orange stuff.
    The steak was one of the best for a while. Not sure if it was the meat or the throw it on, have another beer, pull it off, have a beer & wait and eat cooking technic.

    Stuffed and Roasted Ox Heart. One of the few offal's that my lovely wife will knowingly and willingly eat.
    The young fella found half an Ox heart in the freezer and asked if we could have it for tea. Of course we can son.
    We started by frying up a heap of Bacon, Onion, Spinach and Mushrooms, added a couple of diced garlic cloves, some Nutmeg and Cinnamon, a good dollop of salt and pepper and half a glass of red wine. Cooked it up until everything had reduced right down and most of the liquid had cooked off.
    This takes about a half glass of red wine, for the chef.


    Chucked the heart in a pan of hot beef lard and seared/browned it off before stuffing it with the spinach and bacon mix. This took around another half glass of red wine to accomplish.


    We had the roasting dish warmed and primed with a bit more lard and dropped the Heart into the oven for around an hour at 125 degrees, Or about 2 glasses of red...


    Close to the end of cooking we prepped a frypan full of, you guessed it, beef lard, and shallow fried some Agrias to accompany the main ingredient come tea time.


    Heart out and allowed to rest for one more half glass of red wine before slicing and serving.

    I bet that was a hearty meal. Ha ha ha ha.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    1980's style for dinner, only didn't have a cherry for the top....

    Ham steak, caramelized pineapple chunks (didn't have slices)with Chilli, mushroom gravy and mashed spud made with cream and a heap of butter. And some green stuff.

    Simple, and tasted very good.

    Looks good. But question, from the pan to that photo, how long (minutes)?

    Dusted off the wettie and snuck out for a midweek swim. Limit of nice fat crays and a nice fat winter snapper that hung around to long.

    Crayfish & snapper Karaage bowl and some snapper sashimi as a side. Quality chewing.

    Yeas before I was a body builder, the problem for me is I am a small eater, too small actually. But if I can get this meal everyday back then, I should have had 5lbs more muscles now.
    So be it
