What about Corned Beef Hash in the oven with a few eggs.

Mussels
Muscles
Apostrophes

Thankyou !

My inner pedant cries every time I read this thread. I don't even like ******* mussels !

 

[Camo6]

I don't even like ******* mussels !

They can come in handy for opening stubborn jars of muscles though.

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Considering mussels are mostly just muscle

My mum used to slice the leftover silverside nice and thin, dip it in a pancake typed batter with cracked black pepper and fry it in butter and lard until crispy and golden.

Bit of salt or tomato sauce...

Holy **** balls, Batman.

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

I am so going to try that

Unfortuantly mine is that tender that it breaks up as soon as you cut it so you cant really do thin slices

 

[jyo]

Yeah, I used to really look forward to it the next day for breakfast.

What if you cut it with the grain?

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Wont make much difference, it literally falls apart

It'd probably gum up the rollers.

Good point

I have made **** loads of jerky from corned beef, and smoked it

I went to unsalted silverside (fresh from the butcher) for my jerky for a while, but for some reason everyone charges more for it, so I've gone back to normal corned silverside and I just soak it for a few hours to draw out a little of the salt (I'm trying to lower my salt intake and make my jerky as healthy as possible)
Makes the best jerky imho, most other people I know who've made it rave on about using topside and other cuts, but then they try my jerky and rave on about how good it is
Plus it has the bonus of being a bit more chewy, like biltong, not super dry and crumbly like some expensive jerkies made from premium cuts out there are

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Yep.

If you dont use salt in the marinate ( almost impossible I know ) then it will draw some out of the meat

I just slightly freeze a lump of silverside and slice it into 4-5mm slabs, then marinate for as long as possible and dry rub them before drying/smoking

 

[sp0rk]

I used to par-freeze mine, but I have a small deli slicer now, so I just use that

 

[GalBrew]

All this talk about silverside.....just went out and bought a big chunk!

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Good man

 

[barls]

i do mine sous vide at 64 for 48hrs. i just put a little brown sugar, a couple of bay leaves and some garlic granules.
i can slice mine as thin as i like after its cooled.

 

[tugger]

And the leftovers.
Baked veg gets mashed, beef chopped and mixed with leftover veggies,
Mash roast veg on top with some cheese.
corned beef pot pies.

Was your mother from England jyo? That sounds very English......and alarmingly appetising.

My mother used to make what she called apple fritters. That was granny smith apples cored and chopped into small pieces crossways, then dipped into a sweet batter. They were then cooked slowly on a hotplate with butter. They were then served with sugar sprinkled on them. I still make them occasionally. Old favourite.

 

[tugger]

The finished product was awesome.

 

[AJS2154]

Nice!! Looks like great cold weather food.

Same here. Very tasty.

 

[AJS2154]

Thats intesting Galbrew. Its funny.....hard to imagine other families eating what is considered your own, personal secret recipe.

I still love them mate. I have even modified the recipe for gluten free cooking. Our daughter is coeliac and we had to modify our old favourites.

It's funny I haven't had them for years, but your post brought it all right back. I used to love them when I was a kid. Might have to whip up a batch myself!

She was born here, but my Nan was born in England and she passed down some old school artery cloggers like this recipe. Loved those silverside fritters :icon_drool2: :icon_drool2:

 

[AJS2154]

Where would we be without a good artery clogger now and then. I know the Australian version would substitute the silverside for devon.....now there is a quality food. Devon!

Spork has hit on the right solution......Rehydrate

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

mm....re-hydrated jerky :lol:

 

[sp0rk]

Spork has hit on the right solution......Rehydrate

Before I dry it

Though, I worked with a guy at Telstra who did a bit of long distance hiking & trekking.
He got me to make him a big batch of jerky before one of his trips, he was boiling up the jerky with noodles, dried peas & beans to make some type of noodle soup
I'm thinking I might actually give that a go some time on motorbiking trips

 

[wynnum1]

That was on cut throat kitchen epidsode with turkey jerky that it could be put in pressure cooker to rehydrate quickly.

You worked at Telstra? Streuth! I was with them for 23 years and I don't remember doing anything like that!
