Sunday roast ideas - not beef, lamb, (chicken or pork)!

[warp9]

Yeah, limiting I know! Family coming round on Sunday and my sister in law doesn't eat red meat, so we always have pork or chicken. Now I like a nice pork or chicken roast, but wondered if there was something else. Either:
a) Just not one of these
b) An amazing way of doing chicken or pork that's not a standard roast.
Cheers

I did a brace of Partridge last week, really plump and juicy. Not gamey at all.

Roast a side of Salmon ?
Easy to do needs no oil as its pretty oily fish anyway .. if you want just pour on some Teryaki sauce before cooking.

Guinea fowl is nice, more flavour than chicken too IMHO

[C0ffin D0dger]

The salmon is not a bad shout.

Few other ideas - Pheasant (you'll need a couple), not too gamey and quite tasty. Turkey. Guinea Fowl - not dissimilar to chicken. Goose - not as rich as duck. Would say duck but the meat is probably too similar to red meat for someone who doesn't like it.

turkey ?

First tell her that pork is actually red meat and since shes been eating that happily you can all now enjoy a decent bit of beef!

Alternatively salmon or personally a turkey breast cooked very low <100 for several hours in cling then blasted under a grill to colour it.

Mix zest of lemon with butter and garlic and rub all over the chicken, stick the remainder of whole lemon into the chicken. Pour 500ml of stock into the roasting tray and cover the tray with foil. Cook for 2 hours at 140 then uncover and cook at 200-220 for 30 mins to brown, I usually get the chicken out of the stock now to crisp up all round but spoon the stock over the chicken every ten minutes. I usually put the potatoes in for 15 mins at end of low temp then when chicken is out I move them to top shelf for last 15 mins whilst chicken rests and I use the stock from the roasting tray to make the gravy. Tastes good! I realise this isn't a very interesting alternative, but it does make good succulent chicken.

That's what I'd do, minus the teriyaki (in this instance).

The foolproof method for 'roasting' salmon is to measure the thickness of the fish with a ruler, and then give it ten minutes per inch, uncovered on a tray, in the oven as hot as it will go.

We sometimes roast pork or chicken dry with a spicy rub, sort of BBQ which always goes down well.

Slow roast pork in a casserole with pears and a cider sauce is great too.

Bone out the Chicken (or get the butcher to do it) and then stuff it with something like breadcrumbs, feta, bacon lardons, etc.

Sparrows. Lot's and lots of sparrows - or a hedgehog or two.

[bingybongy]

I may be wrong but Pork is classed as red meat.

[sherman]

Belly pork with really good crackling on top.

There are a couple of threads already telling you how

That's my kinda recipe.

Whatever you do, I have started to smoke a joint on the bbq when time allows, three or four hours for a slab of belly pork with some apple wood chips is absolutely superb.


Edit. Smoke a joint? OK, you know what I mean (edit before the smart Alecks......)
