I found the tomahawk at miller and carters inconsistent , some parks where less cooked than others
It's just a chain, owned by the people who brought us such high quality dining as Harvester, Toby Carvery and O'Neill's.
This isn't a place that serves high quality meat cooked by experienced chefs...
I got sent a T&G "Dairy" box as a belated birthday present ( https://www.turnerandgeorge.co.uk/uk-dairy-taster-... )
Not for me - needs some work with the knife, quite fatty. Has anyone else tried dairy cow meat ?

Do you find Donald Russell absolutely hammer you with marketing emails, phone calls and posh glossy magazines? I like their stuff, but gosh, it could be cheaper without all that!Truckosaurus said:
Am I right in thinking that ex-dairy cattle would have previously been sold off cheaply to make Tesco Value Mince or football stadium pies for example?
Yep. I used to be a butcher and the forequarter of the carcass was where the cheap cuts came from. I was at a pub last week where they offered a cheap steak night (£7.99 for rump) and they also had a ' slow cooked long rib' for £2 extra.
It was a rib from the forequarter with meat around it. It was mostly bone with meat that needed to be braised.
The missus ordered it against my advice and sent it back. No way it should be more expensive than the rump steak.
Same with the 'Rib-Eye'. This has slowly become more fashionable but still should not be as or more expensive than rump or sirloin.
And paying £££'s for what has massive dumps of fat in as well? Don't think so.

Do you think a lot of cheaper cuts of meat have become more expensive due to becoming more popular. Possibly because they have been promoted by TV chefs. I used to buy lamb neck and breast but both have gone up in price a lot recently.I was at a pub last week where they offered a cheap steak night (£7.99 for rump) and they also had a ' slow cooked long rib' for £2 extra.

The forerib (rib-eye steaks) is sometimes sold for roasting but takes slower cooking times. The tomahawk steak is also from this joint but with a longer bone left on. So you are paying a premium for bone!
