Celebrating Soul Food Month!
Soul food was born from the concept of creativity; doing the best that you can with what you have, and June is soul food month!
Therefore, this month we are embracing the rich, flavoursome and comforting American culinary heritage by using our New Zealand beef and lamb to make and recreate some of our favourite Soul Food dishes. From hearty stews to southern spiced kebabs these recipes are sure to satisfy the soul.
Once you try these recipes we’re confident you’ll want to continue creating them far beyond just this month!
MARINATED BEEF BRISKET
This is a perfect winter meal to get started at lunch time, the longer cooking time of this brisket makes for a flavourful and tender eating experience. We like to pair this with warmed tortillas and a crunchy winter slaw.
TEXAS MEATLOAF WITH GUACAMOLE
This dish embraces the full on flavours of Tabasco sauce, guacamole and sweet peppery barbecue sauce making for a sensational yet comforting southern dining experience. We like to enjoy this meatloaf with homemade potato wedges.
PEPPERED STEAK WITH MUSTARD CREAM
Rich beef steak paired with a bold yet velvety mustard cream makes for a scrumptious southern inspired dish. Couple this steak with vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, beans and/or broccoli for added nutrients.
LEMON, HONEY & ROSEMARY LAMB RIBS
These marinated lamb ribs provide a quick and easy meal which is low in sodium, are a rich source of iron and more importantly, are finger licking good!
BEEF & POTATO-TOP BAKE
There is nothing more comforting on a cold week night than the warm tender meat and moreish flavours of our Beef and Potato Top Bake. It is perfect for those who can’t decide between a pie and a stew!
BEEF KEBABS WITH SOUTHERN SPICE RUB
The bold spice mix in this dish is what makes it so special. Being such a simple recipe, these Kebabs are perfect as a snack or starter and can easily be paired with sides of your choice to make them a more filling meal.
