I picked up the beef cheeks from my local butcher, and value for money they are pretty good, I paid $10.50 for 3.5kg of cheeks, so I have frozen two packs of them to use in the future, and with winter coming on that will not be to far away.

I used the same recipe as before just to compare the difference and I was surprised at the flavour difference.

Browning the meat up.

I cooked the gravy down to thicken it up a little, but the meat was so tender, well worth cooking.

I looked at this before I headed home from work on the phone. I was hungry and was drooling at your finished plate all the way home  [smiley=drool5.gif] [smiley=drool5.gif]

Anyway, I arrived home and we had take-away pizza  :D :D :D

Moral of the story is ....... don't  [smiley=drool5.gif] at pics on the phone  ;D ;D ;D

John... That looks like a top bit of Warm! - especially as I am in the middle of a 'severe weather' cold, wet and windy period  :-)

Found this interesting recipe which includes (85%) bitter chocolate   [smiley=bounce.gif]  Gotta luv that!

I'm tempted to try this using the old pressure cooker - but haven't actually used it with heat beads before, so still hesitant. 
I'll let you know how it turns out if I end up doing it.

LG as a meal, this is a easy meal, the preparation is easy, it would not have taken me 10 minutes. I  first lit 16 heat beads, as I was using my gas bottle cooker, while they were getting going, in my 12” camp oven I browned up the meat, cooked of the onions, added the beef stock, some wine, a can of diced tomatoes, and a hand full of olives. I then prepared the potatoes and carrots ready to go in later.
Sat back and drank some home brew beer, and then claimed I had worked hard cooking dinner for Bonnie. :)

this looks and sounds awesome JC , i best have a chat to my butcher.!!.. :P

After reading all the posts about beef cheeks, I just had to try them. As it is so hot up north at the moment, I cheated and did them in the crock pot, and also to allow for a longer, slower cook. They came out absolutely deliciously tender and I'll be doing them again next time I see some. Thank you all for the tips on cooking them.
