I just sent the other half to the local butchers for some beef short ribs. She was told they didn't have any beef on the bone as it was too warm. What's that all about?
Too warm for beef on the bone...

I would guess that demand drops for roasting joints in the hot weather (?) so they don't stock it.
That said, we're still having pretty regular slow cooked beef on a sunday - it's good to be able to put it on in the morning before a day of the kids and Mrs Cheesyboy playing cricket, and then have something tasty to come home to.

Just proof most people in this country can't BBQ properly.
Send it may way lol.
After 24 hours covered in dry rub,and then hot smoked and slow cooked all day in a BBQ over charcoal, I can make even the toughest cuts of a cow into moist, tender pieces of heaven.

Had a similar convo on Saturday. At the end of a walk (and swim) in the Lakes we stumbled across a farm selling meet from the cows (Belted Galloways) and sheep (Herdwick) that we had been walking amongst. I suggested Forerib of Beef and the missus and youngest declared it to be 'too hot' for that. So we got three fillets at 300g each. £34 but worth it. Tastiest and best textured piece of fillet steak that I have ever had. http://www.heritagemeats.co.uk/ , beef comes highly recommended. I'm sure the lamb/hogget/mutton are as good.

I wanted ribeye but was outvoted by the female voting bloc. Talk about emasculation

I feel your pain, my Mrs loves rump steak over all other steak.
Sorry, it was a stupid response to you.

Ribeye is the king of Steaks man.
And ignore that **** about it needing to be at least medium, you get a good bit of ribeye that bad boy is perfectly fine rare as hell.
As for fillet steak, wow, thats a rich mans steak, and as far as I am concerned, they can keep it.
Also dont mind a bit of rump, rump can go two ways, but a good bit of rump is mighty fine. Serloin is another overrated peice of cow.
But anyway, this thread got completely detrailed by steaks, a good bbq is something slow cooked and smoked on the bone.
I do a good pork rib, brown sugar, paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper, garlic & onion powder and of course msg, as a dry rub.
Smoke that 45 minutes each side, then wrap, inject with apple juice, wrap it, cook for about an hour fifteen, something like that, unwrap, glaze for a little while longer.
Im gonna admit, I have little experience with beef other than brisket, but honestly.... brisked is nothing compared to pork ribs.
If anyone has some experience with beef, share here please.
