Hunters beef

O boy, I remember after eidul azha, my dad used to take a portion of qurbani beef to blue ribbon bakery in guru mandar area of Karachi. They used to turn it into one heck of hunters beef.

Anyone has prepared it at home? Could you guys share your tested recipe please?

Re: Hunters beef

no, if you made some… :yummy:

Hunters beef

I tried once using Shan’s Hunter Beef Masala box but it didn’t turn out well at all :frowning:

Man we used to thinly slice it and then light golden brown shallow fry it. It was just heaven

Re: Hunters beef

I hate you.

Let’s wait for the usual gang of CB, Bint, Afayiz, Lusi and the rest. I am sure we’ll get some good sharings.

nafrat naa kar, pyaar kar.

Man you guys are lucky. At least you can get some good halal beef jerky in your city

Re: Hunters beef

Ture… halal paproni(beef) halal bacon(turkey)…
I can be total engreez in halal way…:smokin:

As unfortunate as it sounds I have never had the pleasure of tasting Hunter Beef. I have only heard about its goodness. So me no help here.

Re: Hunters beef

Thats very simple - marinate beef in vingear, ginger garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, some aroma spices, soya sauce for two hour and then cook in the pot for 3-4 hours (slow cook)!

Re: Hunters beef

I hate you as well like Monk!

Uffoh, ok I am sorry that I forgot to mention your name.

Re: Hunters beef

Really? I thought it was supposed to be marinated for days if not a week or two. And that it had to be dried as well.

Re: Hunters beef

Hunter beef is shaped like a meat loaf right? But is totally different. Now I’m wondering if shami kabab texture is basically like meatloaf. In that case the latter is just a loaf of shaami?

That is what I thought too.

Meatloaf is ground beef. Hunter beef is solid, more like corn beef

Hunters beef

TLK Bhaiyya is correct. Meat loaf is completely different, not only in taste and texture but preparation. Hunter Beef is nothing like meat loaf. The cut of meat used is not ground meat, it’s what in the west is used for pot roast/roast beef/chuck roast. Corned Beef would be the closest thing…or maybe pastrami.

Re: Hunters beef

as a kid, i used to go hunting neel gaaye with the village elders during annual local Anjuman-e-seHat o tafreeH [Health & Recreational Club] week programs which included baitbazi, sports, hunting trips, mushaira, qawwali and annual dinner. i remember they used to cook meat on open fire pits [kinda tandoor]. the tandoorii masaalajaat [spices] were supplied by local women folks. it was so much fun. we used to show our skills during the all night bonfire get together.

i used to imitate ‘pan chakki’ [water mill] and steam engine sounds by blowing air through the palms of my hands. i was so pretty good at that and everyone seemed to like it. :slight_smile:

my sister brings ‘goat leg roast’ to us and her son in the US from an specialty restaurant in Bombay. it’s amazingly delicious. :slight_smile:

Re: Hunters beef

So meatloaf has the texture of shami kabab then? Cuz that’s what it looks like. A loaf of shami kabab.

Re: Hunters beef

Meat loaf’s texture is not smooth like shami kebab. It’s basically a larger hamburger patty if that makes sense. It’s made by forming keema (mixed with bread slices that have been soaked in milk, diced and sautéed onion ,bell peoper and spices) shaped into a loaf and then baked/glazed with ketchup on top. Shami kebab is made by grinding meat and dal that was cooked with spices. The two are nothing alike…not in texture, taste or cooking method.
