Ox cheeks and shin seasoned up, marinated with chopped onions, garlic I’m gonna buy cassareep chuck that in too, chilled for 12hrs stir regularly. Slow cooked in 12% Nigerian Guinness for 6hrs with carrots, cherry tomatoes, celery or until cheeks have totally broken down. Served with gnocchi, steamed greens and horseradish on the side.

im a big fan of ox cheek, use it for ragu and curry, used to buy it for bobbins in my local supermarket when they had a meat counter pre-covid but then it disappeared from the shelves, but last week i bought some ‘lean casserole steak’ which was 3 large chicken breast sized pieces of course grained meat with thin flecks of fat running through it.
It looks like ox cheek, tastes like ox cheek but i guess they don’t call it that as it puts people off who don’t watch Nigella or own a Nigel Slater book.
was about the same price per Kg as the various diced shin/casserole steak packs on the shelf.
