Lamb Mince and Pecorino (+Others!)
Still working my way through the Franco Manca Pizza book and next up was Lamb Mince and Pecorino. The last lamb mince pizza was awesome so I was looking forward to this!
As usual I made the Master dough with Tiga starter from Pizza Bible. Tiga starter on the Wednesday, dough on the Thursday and Pizza cooked on the Friday.
The Ooni Pro was fired up with Oak splits from Smokey Oak Barbecues.
Whilst the Ooni Pro was heating up I put the lamb mince mixture into the oven to part cook.
First pizza out – pretty good!
Second pizza out – good shape
3rd and last pizza out, good again

What else was cooking in the shack this week?
Rib of Beef:
Cracking rib of beef from our local butcher.
Cooked on the Kamado Joe Big Joe at 250f with some whisky oak staves.
I took it off at 52c internal and left it to rest
Whilst it was resting I had ramped up the temperature to 250c and cooked some Yorkshire puddings.
A full spread!
There has been a fair time gap since cooking this and writing it up so I can’t remember how long it took to cook, over two hours – maybe three? Must keep up to date with blog posts in future! Cracking bit of meat though, really enjoyed it.
Chuck Eye steaks with chips
This is a new one on me as I haven’t seen chuck eye steaks before. When Butchery at Bowhouse posted them on Instagram I had to try them!
Cooked on the Thuros T1 over direct heat
Flipped
What a colour!
Glorious
With chips and peas
What a cracking steak, full of flavour and a bargain too. Slightly more chew than a rib eye but worth it for the flavour.
Grouse:
It was the glorious 12th, only one thing for it! Grouse!
Spatchcocked
Rub applied (Ras al Hanout)
Grilled direct, bone side down to start
Flipped
Moved to indirect
And served
Nice meal, something a bit different. Good value too.
Venison tagine:
Still working my way through the half venison I got from Butchery at Bowhose, next up was a Venison Tagine
Not sure why but this is the only photo I have from this cook! I do remember it was incredibly tasty yet very simple to prepare and cook, would definitely cook it again.
