Best. BBQ. Ever.

June 20, 2011

Hi blog… I forgot you existed so in an effort to provide a bit of a catchup I’m going to start with what I’ve done most recently and work backwards until I get to where I left off or forget that you exist again… whichever comes first ;)

So I went to Jon and Izzy’s yesterday for a BBQ with a difference. The advertised meat was a “safari pack” which basically involved weird steak from around the world. In approximate order of preference, this involved each of the following:

  1. Springbok – Like eating Bambi’s cousin. Carved like butter. Could be eaten with  just a spoon.
  2. Ostrich - Very lean and delicious.
  3. Wild Boar – Traditionally sausages but works equally well as a steak.
  4. Kangaroo - Tried to bounce off the plate.
  5. Venison - Like eating Bambi.
  6. Bison - Like tough pork, a bit chewy for my taste, but still tasty.
These were all expertly cooked by Jon, muchos respect. In addition to these we also had a beef and chorizo burger also crafted by Jon, additional respect.
Total different types of meat in one meal: eight. I call that a win… Om nom nom :)
