Homemade Sandwich Meat

Awesome SandwichShortOfAPicnic I think you need 1 or 2 more wires coming out of that pot... 🤣

Seriously, based on my last run I think you can speed up your process if you do like I did, somewhat. Pour off the fat when the cooking is done and you may just get your plugs to come right out prior to cooling them. Depends on how firm they are. Mine was 190°F so it was *done*. It's been about 4 hours and mine is sliceable. 'Course I've still got the first one to finish in front of it...

I use a meat slicer so I need it cold, cold, cold or it doesn’t give nice sharp thin slices.
I’ve kind of got into the rhythm of cooking one day and slicing the next, it breaks the job up into two easy shorter steps rather than dominating my day.
Cook ‘em, put ‘em in the fridge and deal with slicing them in the morning, no hanging around.

Pouring the liquid off early while liquid looks like it works well 👍
But I honestly don’t want to faff about with the containers and… I eat some of the meat jelly when I do the slicing 🤫 😂

Pippi loves it!

When I saw the shape of it out of the tin I did think it makes it look like dog food but wouldn’t dream of saying something so rude, now I see you’re feeding it to Pippi I think perhaps it’s fair game

Some of that Alpo looks pretty good. 🤣

You know, the stew ones?

Not familiar with that I’m afraid.
Always fed mine raw. Not sure I recognise the brand either 🤷‍♀️

There's one that looks like Dinty Moore beef stew (for humans).

Years ago I worked a recall on Alpo...a lot of dogs got sick and some died because they were using some ingredient that turned out to be toxic.

SandwichShortOfAPicnic Now that I've got the proper "can"traption I'm going to have a go at a beef, Worcester shire sauce, mushroom recipe/make it up as I go! 🤞

Sounds great. I’d possibly consider trying a little test patty before committing to cooking the lot. It’s disappointing if they’re not strongly flavoured enough.
Are you going to roast the mushrooms first?
Looking forward to seeing it!

Yes with the mushrooms. Rough chop then roast in a bit of butter and the Worcester shire sauce then fine chop after they're drained.

Do you get this stuff over there? A slug of that might be good.

Interesting. Sounds nice.
Geo Watkins Ketchup is nothing like tomato ketchup though, it’s watery and far more like a mushroom Worcestershire sauce.

It worked as anticipated. Tastes, imagine this, just like my Worcestershire sauce and mushroom burgers except its cold cut! I used my bean masher to make sure no air pockets and got a solid meat plug

Nice 👌
You can cut a thick slice and fry it for breakfast with a poached egg too.
Have you got cure in there? It’s very pink!

Yes, I'll get over that shortly. Next one up is going to be either chicken, tequila, lime or something with bacon... 🤔
