A loaf of many critters

[badseed1980]

That's what I'm going to call it. :) For a potluck on Sunday, I'm making a multi-meat meatloaf. I bought some ground beef/pork/veal mixture, some ground lamb, some duck sausage (couldn't find plain ground duck, this works), and some rabbit loin, which I minced finely. I also got some gorgeous bacon to put on top. This should prove...interesting. I'm looking forward to putting it together!

MEAT!

In other news, I now have plans to go to two weddings and a renfaire on Columbus Day weekend. At least I know what I'm wearing to the renfaire! Oh man, I really, really hope I get that gorgeous 1940s-era dress and jacket combo in the eBay auction. Having another option for one of the weddings would be nice. I'll find out Sunday night, I guess!

It's the ubermeat! Metameat? Multimeat! (Said in the voice of Milla Jovovich, of course. >:-)



I used to do a stew like that, for Mabon, if we had a small crew.

I heard tales of a legendary eleven-meat stew. Not made by you, but by someone else. Apparently, it contained camel and mountain lion, among other things. Also, apparently, mountain lion is not tasty.

I've eaten a wide variety of meats at one point or another, but I don't think cat of any type is anywhere on my list of things to try.

Alligator is also not worth your time. Unbelievably chewy, in an extremely unpleasant way. Rocky mountain oysters, same thing.

I like elk, though.

Eh, I understand gator can be VERY good if prepared by someone who really knows it. It also depends on the particular animal. Bigger ones give tougher meat. I am uninterested in Rocky Mountain oysters, to say the least!

I'd like to try camel. Anthony Bourdain (who is, himself, quite edible) says it's like lamb, but much bigger. Mmmmmmmm.

I love making multi-meatloaf at this time of year.
Yummy.

And - two weddings? Hmm - I guess you don't want to come to the rehearsal dinner, then? If you do, let me know - you've done so much, you'd be welcome.

Oh, I didn't realize! Thanks for the invitation! I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to that, much as I'd love to be able to do everything. But I will be there without bells on but with a whole lot of "YAY!" on Sunday. :)

multi-meatloaf = win!

I've never eaten mountain lion and don't think I could ever eat cat of any kind, on general principle. I like venison. Rabbit's okay if not too gamey. I had freshly killed rabbit when I was in France my junior year; it was prepared in some incredibly tasty way the details of which I cannot, alas, remember. There was also fresh-killed pheasant, which wasn't as good as the rabbit. But I'm sure there's a good way to cook pheasant.
