I hope this makes the sandwich cut. Lunch today.

Cucumber, lettuce, tomato, capsicum, lettuce, red onion, 30h slow cooked pulled girello 🥵, and some gravy made from the drippings. Dijon mustard and Mayo as the sauces.

Managed to keep most of the filling between the buns while eating.

Edit: I should share the recipes. For the girello/top round pulled meat: https://www.craftbeering.com/beef-eye-of-round-roast-slow-cooker/

And the gravy (admittedly not my favourite, but here it is): https://www.lecremedelacrumb.com/beef-broth-brown-gravy/

  • I felt it was missing a little something something, so I thought I would add back in a little bit of fat to see how it went. I added about a tablespoon (or two?) of salted butter. It was better, but still missing something. Not in any way like KFC gravy, but it pairs well enough with the meat.

Huh. In the US eye round is one of the cheapest cuts available. It is extremely lean and so many people have trouble cooking it so it’s not tough. Not that any beef is cheap lately. It’s gotten ridiculous here.

    Same here. I think it was something like $18.99/kg. Beef brisket is $17/kg. I don't eat a lot of the same meats, so I don't notice price increases a whole lot, but no doubt prices have increased in the last few years. Definitely noticed a lot of shrinkflation and skimpflation.
