    a big pot of Scotch broth

    Bit meat high for us

    I hadn't mentioned the proportions. It was actually pretty starch
    heavy and meat light.

    3 cups beef stock and 3 cups water with 2 tb wooster
    2 tb additional beef pan drippings from the meatloaf
    1 sm (about 10 oz) cross cut blade chuck steak, bone in
    1 sm package (maybe 12 oz) lamb tips, mostly cartilage
    1 c barley and 1/2 c split peas so 4 1/2 cups after soaking/boiling
    1/2 c each carrots, rutabaga, and cabbage, so 6 cups of non meat
    solids and maybe 16 oz (net) of meat making up 12 cups or 3/4
    gallon of soup all told. So 2 oz meat per large bowl of soup.

    Beef and lamb together another way ...

    Title: Homemade Gyro Meat
    Categories: Groundmeat, Lamb, Beef, Middle east, Sandwiches
    Servings: 8

    1 md onion, quartered
    1 lb ground lamb
    1 lb ground beef
    5 garlic cloves
    2 ts salt
    1 ts dried oregano
    1 ts cumin powder
    1/2 ts ground black pepper
    FOR THE SANDWICHES:
    Pita bread
    Onion slices
    Tomato slices
    Tzaztiki Sauce
    Lettuce
    Crumbled feta cheese

    Preheat oven to 325 F, 163 C. Place the garlic cloves in a food
    processor and pulse until very finely chopped. Add onion and puree
    until smooth. Add ground meats with all of the spices. Pulse until
    the mixture becomes like a paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl
    in between pulses. Place the mixture in a loaf pan. Compact it as
    much as possible. Bake for 45 minutes til 1 hour.

    Allow the pan to cool at room temperature completely. Refrigerate at
    least 2 hours before removing from the pan. Remove from pan onto a
    cutting board. Using a sharp serrated knife, slice it thinly. Pour
    all of the pan juices over the slices along with any of the fat that
    has gelatinized. It adds so much flavor when heating it up for the
    sandwiches. At this point the gyro slices can be placed in a freezer
    safe bag and frozen for future use.

    To make the Gyro sandwiches, place a cast iron pan over medium heat
    and cook the gyro slices until they are browned on both sides. Warm
    the pita bread slightly. Place some chopped lettuce, onion and
    tomato slices over the pita, the warm gyro slices and tzatziki sauce
    with crumbled feta. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

    Scotch broth

    THanks and saved!

    I found it a little too starchy and not meaty enough so yesterday I
    bought some frozen cross cut beef shank chunks, tossed them into the
    slow cooker, still frozen, on low in 2 cups of beef broth and 2 cups
    of water and let that cook until I got up this morning, about 12
    hours thawing and simmering altogether. I turned it off and went to
    work. Tonight I pulled the meat and fat off the bones with my
    fingers and got all the marrow from the bones, added everything
    to the soup pot and reheated it. Tasted for additional salt and pper
    and took it to the table. The result was perfect.




    Cheers

    Sounds good! I was just explaining how to use shrimp heads/tails and shells to make a deep seafood base.

    Yummy for yours there!
