          I honestly don’t love bacon. It’s very nice in a burger, but by itself? Nah. It’s not horrible but definitely not a top thing for me.

          I support vegan products and avoid buying industrially farmed meat, but I do enjoy meat foods. I just don’t eat them as often and buy venison/moose/reindeer because they lived free (well reindeers mostly free, theyre semi-domesticated, the shepherds just let them go about Lapland for like most of the year and I’ve no ideas how the fuck they manage to heed them back together).

          It’s a bit more expensive but also it’s just so much more better than some cheap ass pork-beef mince with 20% fat. You can taste the lack of cruelty.

              Me? For wine? Or the small kiosk in my local market hall which sells game?

                  I mean they wine’s sort of expensive, but since I stay at home, not really. Compared to going out and having 4 pints, I’m better off.

                  The mince is about 10e a pound. But I complement it with so much veggies that it lasts for several meals.

                  This is basically the base. I slow cooked veggies for some 4 hours, then put a bit through the blender, that’s the

                  White onions red onions, leek, celery, carrots

                  Habanero garlic

                  Oh theyre all out of order now.

                  Anyways slow cook them down to this

                  And then that picture with the tomatos and whatnot has this mix blended, habanero garlic, blended, cherry tomatoes one can, crushed tomatoes one can, splash of red wine, basil, oregano, thyme.

                  And that’s what gives most the flavour. Froze most of that, then left some to combine with the pound of meat and some chunky red onion bits.

                  But honestly the meat is there just to completent the meal and provide protein, most of the flavour comes from the veggies, and this are cheap and cheap reds are just fine for cooking.

                  The picture is basically a recipe, showing me the amounts of things I put in so I can recall the perfect ratio. I do it by heart but I’ve started optimising it and that blend seen there was fkin perfect. So moorish.
