Stop in for Supper, friend

Has anyone had sheep tail on the braii? I had it earlier this year on my trip to the Northern Cape. Initially thought they were riblets until realizing they had lots of vertebrae. Very fatty and delicious as grilled!
One of my favourite starters or snacks at a braai.
But if you want to do it, put it it a pressure cooker first for 10-15 min with spices and salt, and then on the grill over hot coals.
 
Venison stew needs to be thick enough for the spoon to stand up in it local Fallow was the one to provide the venison.

What did the rams look like alive? What breed were they?

Texel. I don’t have pictures of livestock, seems like when I was around them daily just never really bothered. My wife is the picture taker. She has thousands of lamb and calf pics!:)
 
Copy Texel.

I know that breed, you see them here in Europe. We got out of the sheep industry about 25 years ago as my father didn't want to farm in his retirement. I have been out of the house for 34 years.

We were always Suffolk, Rambouillet, and Tarhgee people. Doing the FFA Club lamb circuit. Wool and lamb used to have some level of value, and we sold registered replacement ewes and rams. We had a couple of dog kills that we had to restart on. Once night over 140 sheep killed by 3 dogs. This was before anyone was using livestock guardian dogs in Wyoming. I was about 12 years old. The other time was broad daylight when I was 17, but we only lost a few head before got them shot.
 
My favourite dish!!! I thought it was confined to Italy - and to Rome, above all...
Very traditional and beloved Roman dish!
Great!
My ancestors (as close as my paternal granddad all come from southern Italy.

Like in Italy, food is a big part of my and my families culture.

We just sold a family meat market that was started by my grandfather over 100 years ago.

Tripe is one of my favorite dishes too!

My wife and I hope to get back to Italy this winter for some time to escape the cold of the Northeastern United States.

You definitely love good family food!
It's heart warming to know you're protecting and preserving traditional recipes as part of your family culture. It's part of us, our roots.
Really hope to meet you in Rome and enjoy some good food together!

Next time I'm going to be there I'll give you heads up.

By the way, when I was in Rome a handful of years ago, I had a great dish of tripe and another great oxtail dish too.
 
I like Lamb , Hogget and Mutton. Maybe it’s an Aussie thing.

Speaking of dinner I will put a different twist on on this.
I met up with some guys from a hunting club and the dish in the image was in the fridge. It didn’t look that appealing but when reheated it came up great.

It’s a Persian dish cooked by a Persian bloke in camp using goat shoulder and Persimmons.

I’m glad I tried it

Well ....not quite as exotic, but when it gets hot in the desert, sometimes a hot meal is not always enticing.
Made a large batch of Mediterranean pasta salad.

Agree! It gets hot in Idaho and i also love a good cold salad. My wife also makes pickled shrimp and it is unbelievably good for a summer cold dish!
 
Dinner is usually my lightest meal of the day. One thing that I like to cook (especially in the summer) is chicken piccata. I'll usually get some chicken breasts from the store and butterfly them. The tops get made into a piccata and the bottoms get cubed up for chicken tacos. Here's dinner for one with a bit of angel hair pasta & a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob
