I'm having a couple of friends round to dinner!!?

Question

I'm having a couple of friends round to dinner this weekend and dont know which one to cook first.
Ones rather large, with plenty of fat on him, and shes on the pert but skinny side - rather tender looking. Depending on which one i pick, i am unsure whether to go for a slow roast or to get out the spit - he may be a bit on the large side for this! Barbecueing is out of the question due to the weather. Any help with marinades would also be helpful!!

Answer 1

Flash off the thin one in a pan of very hot extra virgin olive oil, and serve as a starter with a crunchy salad. Then wrap the fatter one in bay leaves with a clove of garlic in any holes you see fit and slow roast until tender. Eat the thin salad starter while waiting.
Enjoy.

Answer 2

I would say mince them freeze what you don't need, and fix a nice meatloaf. She being skinny might be tough, he too fat. together the two ought to be about right.
A simple salad, roast potatoes, and carrot, maybe glazed, and a Burgundy sounds quite appealing.
Of course seasoning the meatloaf with garlic, a good pepper fresh from the mill, and a bit of salt is a good start. Other may include thyme, even a pinch of curry or dry mustard. Could be served with gravy or sauce of the cook's choice.
For afters, perhaps a dish of ice cream or trifle would probably round off the meal, Cognac, coffee, or Earl Grey may work to polish everything off nicely. Of course, Earl Grey is getting expensive, sadly, he is nearly used up, and no substitute for his citrus-like oils has been found. So limited supply has run the cost of this favourite tea through the ceiling.

Answer 3

The one with fat would be good using any dry heat method. Too bad BBQ won't work, 'cause that would be perfect.
Try the lean one as a roast, so she doesn't dry out. Any wet-heat method such as brasising would be ideal. Also, if she exercises she could be tough, so ground up would be good.

Answer 4

Fill the bath with honey, brown sugar and tomato sauce. Take the fatter friend and roll him in the mixture - great barbaque ribs - plenty of meat on them. You could use your skinny friend as a tooth pick - doesn't sound like there is much eating on her.

Answer 5

i think of going to a corn maze with a collection of folk is extra relaxing than only 2 human beings. I did that with my friends when I first began going out with my boyfriend and we had a blast. it is easier to easily be your self and he can see you for who you're. only make constructive no one starts off throwing the corn, it somewhat hurts once you get hit interior the top. you additionally can take your individual little detour with only the two one among you while you’re there. have relaxing!

Answer 6

Gosh but your pretty stupid.

If you cook the fat one first you can keep the fat that comes off to baste the thin one later.
If you do it the other way round the thin one will be really really dry.

Start by practicing with small animals, maybe family pets.

Answer 7

use the thinner one as a starter and make a sort of kebab out of her. The larger one can be covered in herbs, rubbed in garlic and then slow roasted to perfection.

Answer 8

I agree, cook the fat one first, and then you will have fat juices to baste the other one with, she's not called Clarissa by any chance!

Answer 9

I'd just throw them both in the slow cooker. Then you don't need to worry about the type of cut.

Answer 10

Depends on how hungry you are! If your starving cook the fat one! If your not that hungry, cook the women as you can just chew the bones!... lol....
