right then, stop everything! I have a pressing question which requires full attention!

if I cook this gammon joint tonight (its huge - 4 hours to cook) then how long will it last in the fridge before it becomes bad?

not that I expect it will last all that long mind you, what with 9 felines taking an interest, the poor, neglected creatures.

whole a week, sliced up 4 days. That is the real safe bet, it can be some longer. This of course is based on an absolutely correct icebox.

I have kept a hock in there a couple weeks, but I thrive on spirochetes.

You should have put this in Politics.
 
You would have had 50 pieces of advice by now.


All wrong, of course.

*shrugs* hey...what do you expect from someone that thought a McPhearson Strut was a new dance step?

Now Termy, Ron et al may baffle me from time to time with their talk of the niceties of the internal combustion engine - but I do know what a McPherson strut is! Nothing quite like being stuck in the car as a child with nothing to read but the Haynes repair manual.

What the heck is a gammon joint?

Whats a gammon joint? A piece of a pig, essentially. Very tasty indeed - a bit like bacon but a more subtle flavour.

mnottertail -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 11:53:35 AM)

For yanks, let it suffice to say it is a ham. At 4 hours cooking time it would be around 18 pounds or a stone and a pebble, unless I am much mistaken.

About the weight of a 7 foot nigerian slave--- give or take, I should think.

ShaharThorne -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 11:55:54 AM)

I know a stone is 14 lbs.  I remember something from my self-education (regular public education did not appeal to my level of searching for the answers).




LadyEllen -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 11:57:33 AM)

Its funny you should mention that Ron; do you have any suggestions how I might cook the 7ft Nigerian guy who arrived here on BA this afternoon (at least he turned up, which shows willing)? Unfortunately he doesnt fit the bed so I'm thinking cat food - he did sign up for no limits after all - but he doesnt fit in the oven either.

It is a bitch. the problem is that their ass should be roasted, but their elephant hide kimonos are tough and rubbery without a slow stewing.

For a nuttier taste, you may baste with Tory.

Oh, bleeding fuck!!! Here I thought I was in the politcal forum.

Mmmm....ham! Mnottertail's absolutely correct.

Here's a link to a PDF chart I found a while back & have printed on my fridge: http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/ResourcesForYou/.../UCM109315.pdf

Can't help you on How To Serve Man though[;)]

Baste with Tory? Which one do you suggest? I think they might notice if I were to kidnap the leader of HM's loyal opposition, not to mention the rest of the front bench, although I firmly agree with roasting any Tory - alive even, despite my dislike of cruelty to beasts.

ShaharThorne -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 12:09:13 PM)

Does cruelty to beasts cover monsters as well?  If not, fry the sucker!

Like bacon but thicker and salty....usually comes with a pineapple and a fried egg on top....





mnottertail -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 12:10:10 PM)

Clarke in 2001 had suggested any of the front benchers at the time.

LadyEllen -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 12:11:15 PM)

Now, now ST! Just because their inbreeding over generations tends to leave them looking monstrously ugly, proper decorum and good manners must prevail and we musnt refer to Tories as monsters.

ShaharThorne -> RE: gammon joint (12/22/2009 12:12:51 PM)

LOL!!
