Thor’s Hammer
a newbie to us and the butchery world
just what is it well it’s a nice big lump of beef shin which in my opinion is a great tasting cut of meat but it’s also more than this, slow roast joints like brisket, clod and shin lend themselves to smoking as they don’t allow to much smoke to easily into the meat
so cooking this bad boy is a slow job longer the better but not to long as you want it to stay on the bone, can easily be seared on a bbq and cooked upset of the heat over a good few hours until tender, or can be fully hot smoked for a fuller flavour
what ever you decide to do with it it defiantly has the wow factor and a great taking point at any party
the joint will weigh an average of 2.2-2.5kg with a probable meat content of 2kg this could if you think about it on 8oz steaks feed 6-8 people or 3-4 hungry farmers
