Behind the Burner Series – Braised Beef Short RibAvailable October 31 - November 1 (very limited supply)Serious comfort food of the highest order. Another super tough turf treasure commanding $39.68/kg at a local grocery giant.We took our time. These darlings needed to be braised and cooked low and slow for hours until they ascended to melt-in-your-mouth Heaven. For the braising liquid, we fried up some veggies and added fire-roasted tomatoes, tomato paste, beef stock, red wine, herbs and spices. Alongside a medley of veggies, this delicious treat is served on a bed of creamy mashed potatoes with a homemade gravy made from the drippings. The rib is finished with a sprinkle of authentic 30-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano to add a nutty bite to balance the heavy, fatty richness of the beef. Bon Appétit!$26.95 + HST (not a typo!)Big flavour. Serious comfort. ...

Behind the Burner Series – Pulled Beef SandwichAvailable October 13-18 (while supplies last)Even a tough cut of beef comes with a hefty price tag these days. A local flyer advertises trimmed, boneless blade at $28.64/kg—and at a 75% cooking yield, that works out to $38.18/kg of finished beef.But we wanted something worth savouring. Something with a deep, beefy flavour that makes you stop talking for a minute and just enjoy the bite.So we started with a whopping 24.82 kg untrimmed, bone-in blade roast from Atlantic Beef Products. We removed the tough sinew, seasoned it simply with salt and pepper, and gave it time to dry-brine. Then it had an overnight date with our specialized oven.First came gentle smoke from real hickory wood. Then hours of low-temperature cooking and holding, letting the beef soften, the fat render, and the flavour deepen until it was ready to pull.Between the trimming, bones and cooking losses, just 45% of that starting weight became finished pulled beef. But the flavour, man… oh, the flavour!That’s why we start with the whole, bone-in cut and take our time.The payoff? Succulent pulled beef served on a toasted bun with caramelized onions, mushrooms, horseradish sauce and melted mixed cheese. Served with your choice of crispy fries or hand-cut taters.$16.95 + HSTCooked Low & Slow. Worth Every Bite. ...
