At new new i made
Ham in a honey coat in an orange house
1st i had to soak my ham in honey for 3-4hours...which while i was doing thought the ham wasa gonna be soooo sweet i doubted wether id eat it......after 3-4hours soaking in honey (grade3 by the way) i sliced a big orange into thin sliced and cover the ham with it.....So it looked like a wee house.......Cooked it for 3-4hours........When it had litle over an hour left i basted the fat every 10 minutes with more honey........
Once cooked i removed all the oranges and let it settle.......
Once i sliced it up and served it up i was eager to see how sweeeet it tasted...And you know this it wasnt sweeet one little bit and it didnt taste of oranges...What it had done tho is extracted all the salt from the meat and made it taste like one of the best honey roasted hams ive ever tasted......
With my beef i simply plopped in my slow cooker (unbrowned as directed) with 3 halfed red onions..and 2 nicely chopped sweet potaotes......Poured in 3/4 of a bottle of red wine and let it slow cook for 7 bloody hours..........I hate red wine and wasnt that keen on tasting it....But wow it was bloody awsome......So awsome i rehated the left over juice's from it the next day added 2 teaspoons of bisty powder and made gravy with it.....
All in all it is the most ive cooked in 1 day and for so many people and i was totaly the hero that day as everyone loved it...
