I thought we might have some fun with my Saturday cook, and I'll post a full cook's thread tomorrow. But for now.... here is a photo. And no, I won't be giving any hints, or announcing correct guesses until tomorrow.

"Final answer", Heheheeee. I've been watching the British version of ...Millionaire with Jeremy Clarkson, he cracks me up. I also liked his farm show and the Lambo tractor.

I’ll go with big ole bison slabs! Just a wild guess but it sure looks good!

My first inclination was bison, but it's not quite lean enough to be bison, so I'm going with beef cheeks.

Braise that in a pan to finish and you would have some fine Barbacoa

Just posted the full cook. I use a pressure cooker.... entire process takes 4-1/2 hours.

You are going to be eating good.

And there are other rewards. The beef broth from the pressure cooker was concentrated so well that a fat separator had less than 1/8" of fat to pour off. However, when it was chilled it was like beef Jell-O. I'm going to freeze it in condiment cups to use in other recipes and injections.

Looks awesome and I love saving that meat jello! I love cheeks but hate cleaning them prior to cooking. Sometimes they come pre trimmed
