One Meat Forever...

hail the almighty pig

I went with poultry. You can do just about anything with it. One night you can grill it with some pepper, bread crumbs and lemon juice, the next night you can simmer it in taco seasoning for use in nachos. Want something a little lighter? Homemade chicken noodle soup! On top of that you have turkey burgers, turkey bacon, hot wings, chicken chili, drumsticks from a turkey, etc.

They are FOWL though, similar to foul. Offal. I digress..

I agree. Poultry is a lot more versatile than other meats. The novelty of eating pork every day would eventually wear off. It might take three or four years, but eventually. Chicken's boring by itself, but you can basically do anything with it except make a steak or bacon.

False. Pork is the most versatile meat.

Minus the wings you can literally do the same thing with just about any meat including fish. And turkey bacon? That's just dried up turkey lunch meat.

Edit: Ok sorry, I realize that this is a personal preference poll not a "Which is the best meat?" poll. Carry on about your love of turkey/chicken.

i'd have a hard time choosing. today i bought beef back ribs, chicken wings, chicken breast, sausage links, and bacon on the way home from picking up my cholesterol medicine...

 

[houndsbreath]

My uncle gave me 7 lbs of sausage a friend of his made. It's audad ( a wild sheep he shot in south Tx) and pork. It's spicy, smoky and I hoard it like a miser. If i could only eat one meat, this would be it!

I'm about to warm up a hamburger. MMMM, tasty.

I'm about to warm up a hamburger. MMMM, tasty.

Last weekend I bbq'd 50% beef 50% ground bacon burgers, and topped with more bacon. But I supose I could make a 100% bacon burger. Now that's tasty

 

[corkybstewart]

I do love beef, chicken, seafood, vegetables, etc, but there really is nothing that comes close to pork, especially home raised pork.

 

[cootball]

Dude, I said beef, just because I've been on a huge rib-eye kick lately and can't see not having another when I'm just mastering my grilling/seasoning techniques, plus cows are stupid so.....but seafood is a close second, just shrimp alone.....shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.

 

[beersteiner2345]

Beef. Brisket, burgers, streak, and many many more.

I love most animal carcasses as much as the next, but beef carcass is something my life would be empty without.

I have to say I would actually choose beef over beer even.

Moral of the story? Thank God this is just a pole and not real life.

 

[bigbeergeek]

BBQed pork ribs. Done and done.

 

[Vance71975]

Im a steak kinda guy so i gotta say Beef.

 

[flyingwmelon]

Buffalo. Similar to beef but much better flavor.

 

[martinworswick]

lamb,nice lamb is awesome, i can't believe i have to pick other to specify it! do you guys not get much lamb over there?

 

[gratus fermentatio]

I like 'em all; this is a tough question! If it weren't for the mercury problem, I'd have gone with fish, though I think shellfish & fish should be combined under the heading of seafood.

Pork & chicken are my go to meats cuz they're sooooo tasty & you can do so many things with them. I had to choose "wild game" that game animal being the mighty wapiti/elk. It's soooo tasty! Nice juicy elk roasts & steaks, even the bits that end up in the stewpot are tender & juicy. I like elk so much, I'd raise them like cattle if I could.
Regards, GF.

Fish in one category is kind if broad. That would be like having a mammal category. Lol.

In which case I pick mammal.

 

[BargainMugs]

The pig is the most versatile. I love a good steak and I grew up on fresh fish and venison, but I couldn't live without the almighty pig on my plate.

 

[McGarnigle]

Not that much in the US. Most of us probably eat leg of lamb or lamb chops every now and then, but I think my supermarket has at least 20x as much beef for sale as lamb.

Poultry is by far the most versitile. This isn't asking what is your favorite, just what would you prefer if you could only ever have one. You will get awefully tired of most things, even steak after a while.

Chicken can be used in so many different ways. Hell, we already eat chicken 3 or 4 times a week as it is.

 

[Nightbiker]

Its a tough one for me. While I LOVE Beef above all others (when I prepare it myself, that is) I also can't get enough Pork. MOST of the time, its Pork that ends up in the smoker, but Beef that ends up on the grill.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Had to pick pork. Soooo many things you can do with it- much more than poultry. Chops, roasts, ham, brats, breakfast sausage, smoked chops, smoked shanks, soups, pulled pork, BBQ back ribs, spareribs and kraut, porkettas, side pork, bacon, Chitterlings, and a gazillion other dishes I can't think of at the moment.

chicken tacos are lame.

Fish.

I'd flat out die without the fish.

In full disclosure though i gave up 4 legged animals just over 3 years ago after suffering the worlds nastiest case of food poisoning from a pork sausage.

sorry to hear that but at the same time, thank you, now there is more for us.

your right, I need to change my vote

 

[weirdboy]

Beef has apparently come from behind for a surprise lead.

I really expected this was a no-brainer for our porcine friends, but apparently it's a divisive issue.

 

[beninan]

While I love pork products, I had to go with beef. For me, there isn't much that can beat out a perfectly prepared rare steak. And just like the fellow pig, the sacred cow has a lot of dishes to offer.

 

[ChshreCat]

I love pork, but so often it's a secondary player for me. Can't always be center stage. Beef on the other hand.... is a major player. Beef can stand up all by itself much more than pork. Steak stands by itself.

Bacon, while being a sacred meat to me, will always be a costar in most meals. It goes in the BLT. It goes along with the eggs. I couldn't just sit down and eat just bacon. Gotta have something with it. I can eat beef all by itself.

You can smoke beef. You can make sausage out of it. Or you can just grill it up and eat it as it is.

Beef.

 

[madbaldman]

Gotta go with pork, it's delicious in many forms. It is also apparently the closest to human so it will be an easy transition when the apocalypse comes.

-cheers

I'm glad somebody has thought this whole thing out rationally. One more vote for pig - or long pig.

Not likely. Been scarfing burgers (which is made from beef, of course) for about 43yrs now -and I have YET to get tired of the various cuts of steak that can be cooked on the grill (medium rare, of course) -among my favorites being a nice inch-thick Porterhouse (along with a Porter beer -no relation (grin)) and the Flank Steak (of which I will be cooking later this evening). Not sure exactly whats in beef dogs (not sure anyone really knows -and thats probably for the best) but I love 'em just the same! SWMBO prefers T-Bones.
Get tired of beef? Steak? Sorry, I just don't see that. Of course, I grew up around beef cattle on our farm, so that may have something to do with my love-affair with beef. To that same point, it was NEVER in short supply in our freezer while I was growing up.
