i do not know if the british eat similar cuts of grilled beef and sausages, but this are ORIGINAL ARGENTINIAN DISHES :twisted: which includes some of the actual beef, some sausages, blood sausages, hearth, intestines, cow boobs (hahha, sounds funny), and other things concidered to be pretty traditional of the argentinian sunday :wink: of course everything is cooked on a fire grill with wood, not gas and the main seasoning is sea salt. 8)

I'm even hungrier now!!! Having lived in the UK nothing they do can even touch an asado.

The secret to an asado is that it is slow cooked over indirect heat so you have no fat/grease flareups to give the excellent Argentine beef any off flavors. The closest we can come to that here is finding grass fed beef and even then we can't match the flavor of true Argentine beef. I know beef, and living here on the East Coast we eat crap - I grew up in ranch country in Montana and we always ran a few head of hereford X simental.

Thank God you didn't say "I grew up in ranch country in Texas"! I've been there over a dozen times and each time I go I get taken to a local steak house to have "The best steak you'll ever have". I have yet to have a good steak in Texas :cry: First of all, it's as tender as any animal walking 1,000 miles could be. Secondly, why anyone would take a perfectly good piece of beef and cremate it is beyond me. Well done? Not on your life!!!! Give me medium rare or give me chicken.

Kansas City has been the place for American beef so far.
Kobe beef is pretty fine too.

Cheers.

I'm guessing it won't be Texas beef.

You never know what you're going to find, or where you're going to find it. So keep looking.

Dessert!

Post by Rick Dotson »

Mary and I will be coming. We will bring a dessert. It seems like "meat" is well covered. Mary may also bring some fresh baked bread.

I have been wanting to attend for several months, but Saturdays have been really busy. I will be good to see you all again.
