There's always a reason to celebrate not being a vegetarian. To further help the celebration, I'm interested in seeing what your favorite meat is. Just a reminder: there's a 10 option limit. I couldn't possibly fit everything in.

I know it ain't PC, but veal is really is the most amazing thing. A perfect balance of flavor texture and tenderness. Can't beat it.

Oh crap, should have read all of the options! I want to change my vote to Lamb...mmmmmm...lamb :)

Veal is kinda my second favorite. Although you have to buy the expensive kind, from the loin not the leg.

Steak is my god though. Filet Mignon is amazing, and also the best thing I can make on a grill. Pork loin can do wonders as well.

Lemme you jokesters out there some time by saying that no, I do not enjoy eating dog food. This commercial was just the first thing that popped into my head when I read the poll options. :P

Osso Bucco is the very meat best dish I've ever eaten, veal shank, mmmm. And leg cutlet just need to be pounded very thin, and then they're perfect. A loin chop, heaven. And even meatloaf is ten-million times better by just using 1/3 ground veal.

Sausages! The greatest and most versatile meat of all!

Out of this decidedly limited set of options...chicken.

Kinda hard to choose. In general though, I like pig and cow, and all those fancy names just confuse me. I like filet mignon, but not ordinary steaks. I like pepperoni and ham and pork such, but not like an actual... sit-down... chunky roast pig type deal. Chicken I am OK with, especially fast-food-ized chickenoid substances, but plunk some mangled and severed limb of bird on my plate with the bone sticking out and cooked skin in front of my eyes? Ew, no. Fish I don't like. Veal is so-so from what I remember, it's been many years.

I also like human flesh, but then too it's been many many years. Sigh.

I had to leave it short. Damn Jolt restricting my meat options.

Oh, I know. I was complaining about the options themselves, not you.

lamb pwns all. good filet steak is hard to beat in general eating pleasure, but it loses points for napalming the wallet.

Christ, this is like Sophie's choice. I love them all. Though, as much as I adore meat, I don't eat veal. I guess I'm just a softy...and a hypocrite, because most food-animals get terrible treatment, and I still eat them. But hey, it's their own damn fault for tasting so good.

I mean, it isn't a meal unless there's meat. Anything else is just a snack.

I eat chicken the most, but I loves me some steak. So...steak. Yeah.

Where's the option for Spam? (http://www.flickr.com/photos/buro9/299001739/in/set-72157594379214637/) ;)

Bacon. You are fools to think otherwise.

Steak is the best. Steak and sausages. ;)

Steak is the best. Steak and sausages. ;)

How about a steak sausage? We can call them Stausages and sell a million of 'em.

nah, beef sausages are crap. too dry. the fat's not right or something. venison sausages are awesome though.

Brilliant! I can see it now... :D

Feeling better now?

Fish isn't a meat?

Anyway - top five dishes in approx equal preference:

Very Rare Beef Steak
Seared Tuna Steak
Smoked Salmon
Sushi - Particulary salmon, tuna and white fish
Roast Pork with Crackling

all of them, along with a bunch of others you didn't mention. (vennison, rabbit, goat, squiral, duck, goose, ...)

not to nit pic the obvious but sausage isn't a form of meat, it's a way of packaging and prepairing meat, and any sort of meat can be used in them.

(along with a lot of other things. vegitarian sausages are even possible. such things even exist. and the're good too. but the're not a form of meat. not as the word meat is used in any present day context.)

=^^=
.../\...

Sausage=yum

Steak of course

why did you split the meat from the pig into so many different options, they are all good but i can only make one vote :( .

Anyway one of my favourites is bacon rapped sausages.

Not to nit pic even further but the same can be said of steak, you can get it from most animals.

Anyway my favourite is lamb.

Learn how to spell favourite.

yes if you had made the poll have one for each animal the meat comes from you could have included more of the different kinds of animals other animals such as ourselves eat.

of course if you had made it multiply clickable i would probably have clicked all of them, certainly all of them offered in the existing poll. all though i don't think highly of the practice by which cattle are reaised for veal. and a few other things, quite a few other things the meat INDUSTRY does. but i still like to EAT meat of MANY different kinds.

(and non-meat too. ok let's face it. i'll admit it. i LIKE FOOD.)

=^^=
.../\...

I abstain for fish.

Learn how to spell favourite.

I did spell it correctly

With shx: where is fish? Give me a pile of gorgeous fresh raw fish-- almost any kind-- over steak any day. Sashimi sashimi sashimi!

That said, I do like chicken. But it has to be free range and decently treated-- underaged, antibiotic-estrogen-water-stuffed-so-it-survives-grows-and-looks-big is as disgusting on the plate as it is to the moral sensitivities. Horrible to handle as a cook, too.

How about no meat at all? ;)

How about no meat at all? ;)

No meat is by far the worst kind of meat.

But murder is so tasty!

I was saying it to the OP, who forgot the u.

Lamb ftw!

Steak, but I had some superb lamb last night, so I'm rethinking my priorities lately.

Where’s venison?

Eh? EH?!?

*grumbles*

I was saying it to the OP, who forgot the u.

He didn't forget it, so much as didn't add one. :p

When talking about meat, there can be no unnecessary vowel additions. It's an affront to the subject. Or should I say subjeuct? ;)

(And damn, I've been reading too many posts. I never use smileys, but they're sneaking in...)

All of them on that list except veal, which I have never tried. I hear that mild torture tastes good from one of my flatmates though, may have to give it a try.

Elk and Buffalo are my favorite meats.

How about no meat at all? ;)

How about no fun at all? ;)

My favourite meats are goat brains and cow's tongue. Both are very tender. You can broil the brain either in the skull, or directly on a pan. It has a very creamy consistency.

The cow tongue is primarily used to make a beef broth for soup, but after boiling it, you can slice it and serve it cold as a tender sandwich meat. Excellent with mustard and rye.

when i used to eat meat i really liked lamb. no meat can beat that. it's simply delicious and it's the last kind of meat i ate.

oh, and due to my impulsiveness i voted for veal.

He didn't forget it, so much as didn't add one. :p

What is it with Americans? Removing all the 'u's and then saying "uh... it was like that when we found it... honest!"

Depends on my mood, really. Right now I'd have to say steak, because I posted in the "how do you take your steak?" thread first, and now I want some.

Where's the Rameria option in the poll? :p

You forgot my favorite kind of meat. Bison.:(

Where's the Rameria option in the poll? :p
:eek: :p

Methinks I'd be outvoted by the other meat in the poll.

:eek: :p

Would've gotten my vote. ;)

If I were made to pick one from that list and eat it exclusively, bacon.

In general, my favorite meat is goose's liver.

Would've gotten my vote. ;)
Silly. :p

I vote "All of the Above."

Lamb FTW.
Pork comes a close second.

Silly. :p

Perhaps, but true. ;)

Very little comes close to the deliciousness of well-marinated, grilled lamb.

That being said, I'm pretty fond of most meat if it's well-prepared.

Fillet mignon or duck.

Why the hell is beef not up there?
wtf?

I believe you want the "steak" option.

I still want the "Rameria" option. :p

Couldn't answer the poll. My favorite meats not on there.

Kitten meat....mmmmm tasty;) :D

I have to choose? Steak, lamb, chicken are all soooooo good...

*drools*

;)

Should have just listed animals:
Cow
Pig
Chicken
Sheep
Fish
Deer
Rabbit
Duck
Turkey
Geese

*Drools* all! all!

I still want the "Rameria" option. :p

Rameria....mmmmm...tasty. :D

You left out Rameria. :p
Hahaha, you're hilarious. :p

Oops...

I clicked ham, but that's actually my second favorite. Pepperoni is my favorite and bacon is my third favorite. I don't really like any of the others, except for chicken, and then only sometimes.

You left out Rameria. :p

...and buffalo.

I could be easily bribed with fresh fried clams any day. -droooool-

It's a shame I live in the midwest of America. :(

hah I can have a favorite meat as a vegetarian! :upyours: :p :D

Chicken, it tastes good and you can cook it countless ways.

Lamb is my favourite.

That's why I'll never live in the midwest US. Can't get fresh seafood there.

Go find a field in which to graze. :p

I like it all except the processed meats. I'm not a fan of pepperoni,salami,etc...I dont even like ground meat much,unless we grind it here.
I like beef,lamb. I like game meats.

I dont eat veal and havent in well over 15 years.

Perhaps another thread with poll is required for those of us who only like certain parts of animals, instead of specific animals.

I believe you want the "steak" option.

Beef and steak are not necessarily the same thing.

Aside from the fact you can have gammon steak beef and steak arent the same- when I have a topside of beef I am not eating steak, if eating beef stroganeouf (sp?) I am not eating steak, if I get a wee bit peckish strolling through a farm, wrestle a cow to the ground and take some chunks out of it you'd have to be high to think I'd been eating steak.

When you make a meat poll you give a Yorkshire-man his beef option dammit!!

*sigh* Perhaps I should make myself more clear. Obviously beef and steak are not the same thing. However, given that there are limited options on the poll, if you really wanted to vote you could have chosen "steak" and then clarified: "I voted for steak but I really meant beef in another form". You know, since that's closer to the beef option you want than, say, "turkey".

Better? ;)

Of the choices presented, it's a toss-up between steak and lamb, with a good, tender medium-rare steak having a very slight edge. I wish you had included fish, though, because I adore salmon.

Wow. I can't believe so many people love lamb as much as I do.. this might call for a convention or something.. :p

It is a very close toss between Chinese roast Duck, and chinese BBQ pork. Seeing as pork is the only one there, I'll go for that.

I was saying it to the OP, who forgot the u.

I didn't forget a "u." I didn't put it there, because it doesn't belong there.

Steak. Yup. :)

I don't eat it very often, but lamb is my favourite.

I like Minced Beef but that is no longer a meat it is something far more special.
So i say Pork, sweet delicious Pork.

Steak, freshly ripped from its still-mooing host, scarcely introduced to a griddle before it is forced glistening and bloody down my gullet.
