[Meat + Heat + Eat = Human]

This is the reddit that celebrates the greatest discovery ever made in the history of Earth: The formula that made us Human 2.5 million years ago.

Meat

  • Foodporn Pics, Beauteous Prose, and Recipes are encouraged.
  • The meatier the better.
  • The Fanatics of the Cu(l)t of Bacon are welcome to proselytize here, at the bacon-wrapped altar of Ron Swanson.
  • If you hate meat, please post elsewhere.

RULES:

  • Debating vegan ethics and diets is not on our menu.

There are other subreddits in which to discuss the ethical, religious, and health aspects of vegetarian and vegan diets, and conversion from them.

Please don't entertain the trolls. Nobody "wins" those debates.

  • We shall not hate our non-consuming brethren.

If a fanatic falls through the cracks and gets in here spouting anti-meat rhetoric, just report it and move along.

Similarly, don't go trolling the anti-meat subreddits and also posting here sucking up to us. We mind our own choices, not the choices of others.

  • Any photos must be your own or unique

And not those of your johnson.

Photos lifted from elsewhere to demonstrate a technique and/or pose a culinary question are OK. Site the source if it makes claims and/or is somewhat unique.

  • No, "Is My Meat OK to Eat?" posts

These threads immediately invoke martial law: Fear everyone and all responses you receive until your post is removed. Nobody gets slapped except the OP in these threads.

Worms/parasites? Never has anything posted here turned out to be either. They're usually blood vessels or sinew.

Cysts, tumors, infected lymph node... quite possible. But we still don't want to see them. Return it to store.

Your post may be better suited for r/foodsafety.

  • No Youtube, Blog, Referral Codes, Polls, Surveys, Karma Farming, Politics, or Religion.

Links to blogs, youtube, and referrals to meat-shares automatically removed. No politics unless it has to do with the meat industry. 'And no religion, too.'

Polls are OK only if you're in credible Animal or Meat Science program.

  • No Shitposting - Euphemisms, long pig (banned!), childish, unproductive, no-quality posts.

References to long pig (especially), anthropomorphisms, euphemisms, and any other -isms are just not funny nor constructive. You're not the only one in the thread to do it <yawn>.

When shit-posting overtakes a thread it may be sanitized, locked , or just deleted. Don't sabotage an otherwise good topic.

  • New redditors and karma-shy accounts are moderated

Sorry. This one kinda sucks.

If your worthy post was auto-rejected due to low karma or account age you can PM the mods a nasty-assed, indignant, hate-screed message and there's a good chance you can score a Golden Ticket with no karma attached.

Otherwise, get some karma and age on your account - it doesn't take much.

Ex- vegetarian looking for ideas

Hello- I’ve spent most of my life, and all of my adult life, as a vegetarian. I truly don’t remember what most meat tastes like anymore. I’ve recently begun eating meat- but have no idea what to try. Please give me your favorite recipe ideas! So far I’ve enjoyed fried chicken, steak, bbq chicken, and roast. I’ve tried ground hamburger a few ways but haven’t enjoyed it (not sure if I’m cooking it wrong or just don’t like it). Thank you!

Chest Freezer Full of Meat Partially Thawed…OK To Refreeze?

I have a chest freezer that the outlet tripped a day or two ago. Just opened it and saw the meat (all beef and some turkey) partially thawed? Still frozen portions and ice on bags, but meat has basically thawed. Is it ok to refreeze? I have a 1/4 cow in here and it would be a fun experiment, but don’t think I can eat it all in the next week lol

What's your experience with different ground beef textures?

I bought ground beef from Walmart for the first time today and I was kinda shocked at how much liquid ended up in the pan - I was basically boiling the beef. By contrast, the ground beef I get from the local grocery store doesn't have this problem, despite them both being 80/20.

One big difference, though, is the ground beef from walmart was in a tube, and it was super minced whereas the beef from the grocery store is much more loosely packed and still kind of in it's usual ramen noodle block shape.

I googled around a little bit trying to figure out if the beef from walmart had more water than usual in it or something, and the consensus seemed to be "probably not", so I thought - maybe with the beef mushed up into such a fine texture, that increased surface area is allowing a lot more of the water / fat to leech out compared to the other beef?

What kinds of experiences have y'all had cooking ground beef with different textures? Have you noticed anything like this?

What are these red spots in my pork jowl?

This is a store bought smoked pork jowl, what are the little round red spots with the dark red outline on the two lower pieces?

The are solid and feel similar texture/density to the fat when pressed or cut with a knife.

What about the darker spot on the top-right piece?

Is the spot safe to eat? Is the whole piece still safe to eat?

What tool should I use to cut through these pork back ribs from costco?

I have tried my knife in the picture, doesn’t work, I bought a butcher hand saw, doesn’t work. What is working for me is use the metal wire cutter in the picture. But it’s not a kitchen tool and I’m afraid of hygiene and rust issues.
