MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Made a huge game casserole this evening - venison, pheasant, mallard, partridge, lardons, carrots, swede, leeks, garlic, onions, mushrooms; for liquid - henderson's relish, chianti, beef stock, tomato puree, plum tomatoes; for extra yum some 100% chocolate. Loads left so freezing tomorrow.
In the kitchen tomorrow....I'll be making beef casserole using bone-in shin - not mine, obvs.
Wish there was a proper fishmonger in Lincoln - but there isn't; one of the few things I miss about Leeds is Kirkgate Market and the great fishmongers.
Personally I would also invest in a new toilet seat after eating all that....
Cant beat a good beef or lamb stew when the weather turns cold; swede/sweet-pepper/parsnip/leek/carrot/garlic/potatoes .. plus dumplins of course.
That said ... sounds like your recipe decimated the local wildlife; plus never heard of adding chocolate to a casserole!
I have come across chocolate with pheasant. But never a 3 bird and deer stew.

In these straightened times you have to take whatever the hard shoulder gives you.
i might reheat some of my badger, fox and seagull risotto later.
Roadkill Risotto.
I think you may be on to a winner there,you should tell Little Chef.

Something something something brexit 🙂
SMIDSY pie - eat the embarrassing evidence and save on the inconvenience of a fatal accident enquiry
Is Foster's butcher still on Monk's Rd?
I got so fat when I lived there.
Mmmmm bacon
APF
Alex, I'll be near the Arboretum tomorrow so will take a look.
Followed by what we used to call ' hard up tart' (jam on a pie crust)
Irony that you have posted a "seasonal" meal when three out of the four ingredients are now out of season......... 😉

Is the one in the market no longer there? Or head to the coast for some fresh off the boats?

Such as the cut-price sweet shop? And the amazing variety of cuisines on offer in the food hall? Personally I like the butchers at the top end who regularly do offers like gammon offcuts for £1 (great for making into ham & leek pies) or a big bag of sirloin steaks for £10.

reheated risotto? That doesn’t sound good.
Scapegoat - ingredients were fresh...out of freezer! Impressed if you really knew the dates for various types of game.....
Johndo - tried several butchers in the market but unimpressed; always reverted to Wilsons at Crossgates.
Alex - yes, Fosters still on Monks Road; will try them and report back.
It's healthy eating, boys and girls - note use of punctuation.
As for beef casserole - shin of beef is cheap as are root veggies, bottle of strong stout and other stuff; 5 hours before culinary heaven; dark, rich, stuffed full of flavour.
To someone up there ^^^ 3 bird is a roast; my ingredients were diced; game casserole, typically, includes a mix of meats - I would have included rabbit and/or hare but not available when I was buying.
Always important you don't get confused 🙂
Not road kill, silly boy ^^^
I had a whole potted swan before I came out, I'm stuffed
@frankconway partridge Sept 1-1 February, pheasant October 1- 1 February, Mallard September 1- 31 January.
Venison depends on species and sex, eg Roe Buck, 1 April to October 31, Roe Doe 1 November to March 31 (England and Wales) ......
To be fair, In this cold weather you could hang a pheasant or partridge for a couple of weeks, and it’s be about right. 😀
