Hi all,
Finally found a group for like minded people.
I have bought, tinned goods, pulses, veg oil, cleaning items to name a few.
I am an ex butcher, I have started to post on FBook cheaper and more unusual cuts of meat, to help people.
Last month was my most unusual was pig's head and last week was cow's tongue.
Air rifles x 2 with loads of pellets.

So glad to have found this group, as I have a little idea, just good to share thoughts and ideas

Welcome from Cheshire.
You've found the right forum. Don't be shy.
I look forward to reading your contributions and probing you with meat related questions

Welcome. Have a good look round and feel free to ask questions. We don't bite and it is always nice to have new people to swap ideas with.

Welcome to the forum! I'm about to start work on cleaning materials myself, bicarb/ vinegar all of that. I need the underlying knowledge, but its a great idea.

[chittsmk]

I hope you like the results.
Arzosah, looking forward to the cleaning products.
jennyjj01, Only too happy to help.

Thank you to the rest of you, for making me feel welcome. I have butchery notes from my course that might help with cuts and cooking methods.

Pig's head.... If it's meatloaf made from cheeks and joules etc. I could stomach that. but I have a bad feeling it starts by boiling the whole head which would gross me out.
Mum used to eat brawn is that like this?
Tongue... Don't like the taste or texture. I'm afraid it's flesh or nothing for me. But that's a failing.

Can’t beat Ox tongue. Waaay back as an apprentice,my Monday morning job was boning beasts heads,and removing the tongue,and putting into brine for three weeks. Boiled shredded and pressed as a cooked meat. It’s lovely.

On Tuesday,a customer asked if I could get an ox tongue for her. It came in yesterday,and I spiked it,ready for her to brine it ( she knows the way,and it’s for Christmas) . My younger colleagues were,well, almost sick! They only deal - themselves- with boxed stuff. The proper stuff goes mostly to the old boy. That’ll be me then.
