That's another one that really ****es me off. I used to buy lamb shank really cheap compared with the other cuts and now, now it's the same price per kg as the leg.
Veal shank is off the wall due to the trendiness of Osso Buco so the lamb is still well below that, I have the butcher saw them down into 3" pieces so I can get at all the marrow (sorry jacco).
Not sure if it's too crude for this food show, but Mel Brooks might have found this amusing : Jew's fillet, born, raised, and slaughtered in Austria.
(or Juif-steak, as I tend to name it)
Pff, just marinate them in some antihistamine : Astemizole and anle138b: no “effective therapy” yet, but lots to be optimistic about | Prion Alliance

yeah lamb saddle is normally sold as loin here, you get with flank still attached Scott? good for an amazing rolled roast with that on and cheaper.
the Beef, duck and pork are extremely good from the gippsland joint too, loving their pork scotch fillet and belly. its getting on 1.5x what I pay for good Queensland meat, but just so damn good every time
indeed Cal, Osso Bucco is another one, and Oxtail; all that slow cooking stuff that used to be a bargain, still not too bad, but far more than it used to be.

even if the food aint that good after a bottle of brandy who cares ... 😀
So the deepest end of stink is in Sardinia with the illegal maggot ripened cheese.
Wow, I really can't top "Maggot ripened".

However, if you guys ever make it out this way you must try some Dragon's Breath Blue from That Dutchman's Farm (That Dutchman's Farm) (no offennse intended Jacco).
Cheese shop, antiques, café, student slave positions, only things missing on the list are a mushroom shop and a brothel, aka sex farm.
With the heathen blasphemy added, they should be incommunicado'd, excommunicated, and extradited.
(it's an outrage, those hicks reside at 600 yards from the beach, with a clear view at the Cobequid bay)

They say they would mail one to me. Reminds me of the worst dinner conversation stopper ever. I served a slightly over the top Blue de Bresse and one of the guests said, "This smells like semen".
It took me a very long time to realise that words of such nature are the clearest road signs, refer to and characterize the source of origin, not the cheese.
Such vanity.
(1986, wet cotton balls. Required a decade and a half to accept that the originator was a gum wad nuisance, sticking to one's shoe sole

Real stinky cheese - Cabrales.
Cheese from Spain - Cabrales
Once I had to get out of a restaurant because the guy at the next table was eating it. I almost puked. It's the smell of stinking shoes only x1000 more intense. I can't believe people get near that cheese.

I remember once watching a travel show and the french guide sniffed some cheese and said (insert your most outrageous french accent): "It smells like the feet of angels"

Luckily I live 1/2 mile from arguably one of the 3 best cheese shops in the country. Their aged Manchego is a family favorite, I'll bet they have this at one time or another. That is the correct smell BTW, yummy.

Haha I'm a wussy. I can't take the pain.
I cant either, I like blue cheese, but only up to medium strength, not aggressive, hallucinogenic blue

Just watched the Cabrales video. It is incomplete. The guy says he loves the smell, another sicko. 😀

I love Jose, he is carried here and I have seen most of his shows.
Galicia !!!
Ah, Coruña, just the place for a boater to go mad from the view, the marinas, the beaches, plus the sea food, and the wish never to leave. (navajas, with loads of ajo y guindillas)

Ah OK. I agree, hes a likeable fellow maybe too likeable for my tastes but that is another matter.
I see you went lyrical there Jacco - doing a Jose impersonation.
