First Food thread boast post: Spicing beef atm for a trad Irish dish on Boxing Day. Got 2 x 2kg hunks of silverside in the fridge with sugar all over it. Will brine later in solution of various Christmassy spices & saltpetre. Then a slow cook and cool until the buffet. Fuck I'm excited.
For the big day itself: another huge hunk of gammon, for a sweet glazed ham. Dunno what accompaniments yet though, but I do plan to have leftovers & fried eggs for breakfast for days if not weeks afterward.
Last night I made pulled pork belly - slow cooked for ~4 hours. Tonight's a visit to MEATmarket. I might be overdoing it on the meat.
