Tell Andy sent you.

Actually I have been very remis of late not reading this super thread on PistonHeads due to various factors but now I am finally up to it again. Even my new wonderful Weber Smokey Mountain BBQ has been cold of late frown No rare steaks trying to convince the general public otherwise either frown
But after watching Man v Food last night I have finally got my Pie and Piston Food, Drink & Restaurants mojo back up again. beer

So I started off with a monks size portion of cheese and crackers, just a dabble, dipping my toe into the gastronet again.



How simple is that, and yet oh so yummy. If you don't like strong tastes now look away, the biscuits are salty and splattered with multiple seeds including sesame, so you can tell they pack a punch. The cheese is the lovely, pungent and ripe Époisses de Bourgogne.

With a good red wine you can't get a better midnight snack.

Andy

Yeah, what happened? Cheese and biscuits look good - but isn't decent cheese expensive in the UK?

Hence I raise you my latest batch of rillettes de porc. £3 worth of ingredients (if that) made 3 Le Creuset 250 ml mini cocottes full.

It's like all the tasty bits from the roasting pan spread on toast, and will convert even the most hardened pork hater:

I really like the Epoisse, but have only had it with digestive biscuits. It's a rare (for me) and expensive treat smile
I would have thought that your strong tasting biscuits would have taken something away from the cheese? ...certainly, not the smell biggrin
