Product Description

Review

"Few chef's know and love their beef like John Torode... he's written a book that cuts through the bull and give home cooks the confidence to find the best beef and do it justice in the kitchen. A rare book and very well done!" --Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Chef.<br /> --Sainsburys Magazine, 1st September 2008

"Each section is accompanied with a cartoon section of a quirly cow... a nice way to help you understand why certain cuts are suited to particular ways of cooking." --BBC Good Food Magazine, 1st October 2008

"Everything you need to know about cooking with beef, from spagehetti with meatballs, to cote de boef with caramelised shallots or grilled veal chops with peas, artichokes and bacon. Let the MasterChef show you how." --Olive Magazine, 1st December 2008


Review

"John Torode's Beef...is fiercley anti-elitist, showing everything from how to cook the finest steak to how to feed eight people with three quid of shin meat."

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterchef - Master Book!, 29 Oct 2008
By Poppy Edmunds - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This books is amazing! I have been a massive fan of John's and Masterchef forever and now he has made this book all about Beef. I do not even cook that much Beef and bought it more for him than anything, but I am now a convert! Who knew it would be so easy to make all these things!

This books goes through everything to make with beef, and even astonishingly puddings. Which are made from suet, apparently. Plus the jacket folds out to a poster, which is really fun. It shows a cow with all the different types of bits on it, so to speak.

This is a really special book and if anyone wants a really good book for their fathers for Christmas, I would say this is perfect and a little bit different.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Carnivore Christmas Present!, 21 Nov 2008
A brilliant book - combining a wealth of practical beef knowledge and delicious recipes with stunning photography to boot.
A pleasure to read and use - it will be going to the majority of my family for Christmas this year.
Can't wait for Fowl to come out next year!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great range of dishes, 15 Jan 2009
By Mr. P. S. SCOINS (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Lovely book - the pull out poster / dust cover is a great touch. Tasty recipes throughout - did the meatballs and it made enough for 7 dishes that freeze well.

Not as much on the rearing of animals and the husbandry as the River Cottage Meat book, yet still has a conscience.

Looking forward to cooking more from this!
