Looks like it's quite the day for it. Putting Mudgeeraba Spices and Curry Blends Taipan BBQ Mexicana spice mix through its paces as a rub on this beautiful easy-carve Tasmanian leg of lamb from Kawungan Quality Meats.

Scratching around for dinner ingredients tonight then discovered this Deckle Steak AKA Spinalis Dorsi in the freezer. A quick thaw then straight into a screaming hot cast iron pan, rested, & topped with a zesty chimmichurri. No wonder those in the know call this cut "Butchers Butter". Much yum & tender as.

That's what I'm talking about: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-27/the-smoked-barbecue-meat-communities-mean-so-much-to-men/103934178?fbclid=IwY2xjawESaTtleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHfOVL9P1jwUCYXz0vh2aUhxXwr0QexwG0R2iCKjcWUp5G0Cz7eaapkkEyg_aem_Eb_UarMc__t5u0ebg6l2uQ

There's been an "explosive" surge in Australia's smoked meats community, with barbecue community groups serving as inadvertent online men's sheds where meat, mateship and masculinity are all on the menu.

What better way to warm up a cool winter's day than wood-fired Porchetta in the Traeger?

Lovely S.Kidman Chuck smoked for 14 hours "the old-fashioned way" at the Low'n'Slow BBQ Shack, about to become delicious pulled beef. Spices freshly roasted and ground. Amazing aromas at the Shack right now.

Very chuffed to score some amazingly marbled Deckle cuts of beef from Kawungan Quality Meats. A big thank you to Dale. It's called "Butcher's Butter" by butcher's and spinalis dorsi in the anatomist's manual. It's the ribeye cap, the tastiest beef cut of all.
I have been considering how I was going to cook it; Low'n'Slow for amazing slices, go further for incredible pulled beef, or reverse-sear it, or go hot & fast on a smoking hot grill over charcoal.
Then I read this article. Decision made.

Ribeye cap, light of my life when there's fire in my grill. My steak, my soul. Rib-eye-cap. It's deckle, plain deckle, in the kitchen, sitting one foot four when trimmed. It's calotte in France. It's Butcher's Butter in the shop. It's spinalis dorsi in the anatomist's manual. But in my tongs, it is....

Pumped for test drive number 2 of The Sauce Artisan Chimichurri on a cracka reverse-seared rib fillet steak. Can say for sure that this sauce loves steak. Delicious combo. And perfect on the smoked portobellos too! Much yum.
