When the lid of the oven was lifted, a wave of heat rushed into everyone's nostrils with a slight smell of burning, and suddenly a burst of meat fragrance rose, causing everyone to swallow their saliva.

"Zhang Chi's barbecue kung fu is getting more and more vigorous."

Li Qiao looked at the barbecue and praised it sincerely.

For two large pieces of barbecue, Zhang Chi directly put on gloves, took out the barbecue with his hands, and put it directly on the large iron tray.

The surface of the meat is slightly burnt, and some thin places are a little baked, Zhang Chi first used a knife to cut off these baked places, and then cleaned up some corners and corners with knives.

It's not that Zhang Chi uses too much fire, but the American-style country barbecue here, a little mush on the meat is inevitable, because such a large piece of meat is baked in the oven, there will always be paste, and this is not an electric oven, but a wood-burning oven.

And a little paste is not a disadvantage, not only is it not a disadvantage but also a worry, the place where the paste is grilled with a little burnt smell, mixed with the smell of firewood, will bring a unique flavor to the barbecue, like the taste of smoked meat.

The meat knife is very long and sharp, a bit like the long watermelon knife in China, about thirty or forty centimeters long, five or six centimeters wide, with one side open and the other side is the back of the knife.

Zhang Chi's meat cleaver was very sharp, pressing the knife to the meat, and with a slight pull, a piece of meat was cut off.

"Who wants this piece of meat?"

Zhang Chi picked up the cut meat and gestured at everyone.

Li Qiao immediately stretched out his hand: "I'll come, I like to eat a little cooked."

This piece of meat is almost fully cooked, and there is no red on the cut side, which is exactly the appearance of cooked beef, but the juice is still rich.

Because when roasting, the first thing to do about a piece of meat is to seal the edge, the so-called edge sealing, which can be regarded as Zhang Chi's own translation, is to roast the meat around it, wait for the firewood in the oven to rise, and when you can see the flames, put a whole piece of meat on the flame and burn it, and after the burnt meat color is not visible, it means that all the moisture in the meat is sealed in the meat.

When grilled in this way, the juice in the meat does not evaporate, but remains in the meat, mixing with the original fat of the meat, and when it is cut, the juice will flow out like water.

Hearing Li Qiao say this, Zhang Chi put the meat in his hand on the plate.

"Young man, how about this piece for you?"

Zhang Chi shouted and pressed the knife in his hand and said to the little baby.

The little guy looked at Zhang Chi, and then looked at the meat in Uncle Zhang's hand, a little undecided, because the meat looked a little scared of him.

When Zhang Chi saw it, he smiled, went down directly, and cut a piece directly to the child.

Li Qin saw it and immediately said: "It's more, it's more, where can he eat so much."

"Don't worry, he must have eaten it" Zhang Chi laughed, forked the cut beef slices that were seven or eight taels and about two knuckle thick, into a disposable plate, and sent them to the little guy.

The little guy blinked his eyes and reached out to take it: "Thank you, Uncle Zhang!" ”

"You're welcome, it's good to eat and drink at my uncle's house," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Give the little guy such a big piece of beef, expect him to eat it all, but don't forget, this little baby and Xiong Wazi have been playing for almost an afternoon, and it would be strange if the meat was not distributed to Xiong Wazi.

Everyone came from when they were young, Zhang Chi had a dog at home when he was a child, and every time he ate, no matter whether it was delicious or not, Zhang Chi had to divide a little bit for the dog to eat.

The little baby took the meat.

Li Qin said: "You take your sister to eat."

The little baby nodded, looking at such a big piece of meat on the plate and was a little dazed, when he took it, he felt that this meat was amazing, such a big piece, but when it really came to his hand, he was a little worried, how to eat such a big piece of meat?

Holding and nibbling?

That's the way to go!

Thinking of this, the little guy reached out and grabbed the edge of the meat, brought the plate to his mouth and began to bite into the meat.

Li Qin and Li Qiao saw it, and they didn't talk about the child, they have been living in the United States for a while, and it is not like a domestic parent for raising a child.

Parents in the United States generally give their children a chair for eating, and let the children grab and eat directly, most of the time the children are finished eating, and American parents don't care, wipe a handful and wash it, and continue to feed it like this for the next meal.

The little baby eats like this, and the corners of his mouth are naturally shaking around the mouth.

When the younger sister saw her brother eating like this, she also became energetic, and the brother and sister dragged one side of the plate, and the other hand dragged the meat on the plate, and each bit one side.

He giggled while biting.

Children, it is normal to play while eating and eating while playing.

Adults are relatively more elegant, but they are not as urbane as they are.

Li Qin drew a piece of meat as large as domestic braised pork, put it directly in his mouth, and immediately filled his mouth.

While chewing, he also said: "Merica, it's cool to eat meat at your house!" ”

Li Qin said that is true, although this is the west, there are more cattle than people, but the average family does not have beef to eat every day, eat steak every day, the well-off families in the United States can indeed bear it, but the family population is large, this steak can't stand it.

Coupled with the fact that the price of beef has risen slightly, the conditions of Li Qin's family can't support beef every day, but if they really eat like this, the family won't save any money for a year, and they will become a daylight clan like Americans.

Merica said: "If you want to eat meat, you can come often, we don't have anything here, can there be less beef?" ”

Li Qin said: "If you have time, you must come often."

Li Qin just said this, it is really impossible for the two of them to come often with their children, she has a job, Li Qiao also has a job, where is the time to come to Zhang Chi Ranch every day to mix meat and eat.

Besides, I'm embarrassed, Zhang Chi sent meat over every once in a while, and then went to the ranch to eat, Li Qin is also a person who wants to save face.

Lao Xu said: "Today's meat is a bit special, juicy enough, but the fiber is also firm, and the beef flavor is slightly light."

Zhang Chi smiled and gave Lao Xu a thumbs up.

"This mouth, absolutely not! This is Amber black beef, let's put it this way, you are not the first, but you must be the first to eat Amber beef," Zhang Chile said.

Now Amber Black Cow, in addition to Zhang Chi's family slaughtered some, other people who found the herd of cattle did not slaughter it, ate this cow, and ate three miscellaneous cows, who would make such a stupid effort by the average rancher, that is, Zhang Chi is willing to do it.

Of course, Zhang Chi said that he bought it, but in fact, he slaughtered a cow in a gourd, and the good parts were eaten by people, and the bad parts were waiting for many mouths at home, so naturally there was no waste.

Zhang Youliang also ate a few bites at this time, he ate less in each bite, and slowly tasted the taste and quality of this new beef.

Soon Zhang Youliang said: "Xiao Chi, this beef shouldn't be roasted and eaten, you try to make a dry cut, I think this beef is more suitable for dry cutting."

"That's right, Uncle Zhang said that it is in my heart, I also think that this beef is suitable for dry cutting, boiling it with salt, cutting it into thin slices, and then dipping it into ingredients, just a little soy sauce and a little red oil sesame oil, which is definitely more suitable than roasting."

Lao Xu waited for Zhang Youliang to finish speaking, and also agreed and expressed his opinion.

Zhang Chi didn't think about it so much, and it was the first time he ate these beef, because the beef had been stored for a period of time and drained acid. I forgot about it a little bit when I put Zhang Chi away, and it just so happened that these people came to warm their houses today, so they simply took them out.

"Lao Xu, is your mutton good? I've been waiting for you for a long time," Li Qiao urged.

Li Qiao's side of a piece of beef belly, it feels almost over, today's two main dishes, a piece of beef has been eaten, there is still a little slit left in the stomach, potatoes and broccoli or something, there are also on the table, but who is embarrassed to eat this thing at this time.

When this is to use white water mutton to slip the gap in the stomach.

Lao Xu raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Well, it's almost!" ”

As he spoke, he put down the meat in his hand, picked up the wet towel next to him and wiped his hands, and put his fingers in his mouth and took two bites.

"Ouch, you're too dirty, wipe your hands again" Li Qiao teased Lao Xu.

Lao Xu listened to it and instigated two more fingers, and then wiped his fingers with disposable wipes.

While wiping, he also said to Li Qiao: "If it weren't for the presence of my younger siblings and children, I would have directly put my instigated fingers into the pot and stirred it, see what disgusted you, forget the hot dog I bit when we ate before, you snatched it two or three times and stuffed it all?" ……”。

Li Qiaole denied it: "Nonsense, there is nothing at all."

Lao Xu didn't argue with Li Qiao, came to the pot and opened the lid, pressed the meat exposed to the water with his hand, nodded and hooked a piece of meat with an iron spat, and put it in a rectangular stainless steel tray.

I took about a quarter of the meat out, and the rest continued to simmer in the pot, and when I looked down at the fire, I found that the fire was almost gone, and added another strip of carbon to it.

Coming to the table with a tray, Lao Xu picked up the meat cleaver, wiped the knife with a wet paper towel, and looked at it.

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "It's very clean, the wet wipes contain alcohol, what kind of wiping method do you have, don't talk about the smell of meat, the meat is wiped off for you."

Lao Xu said: "You have to wipe it clean, the white water mutton can't be mixed with the peculiar smell, otherwise it won't be white water mutton."

Lao Xu saw that the knife was really clean, and when his hand touched it in one place, there was no oily feeling, so he began to divide the meat with the knife.

Lao Xu is not like Zhang Chi just now, it is a bit scary to go down to the tiger with a knife, and a piece of meat will fill people up.

He divided the meat here, and divided it into strips, each one as long as a palm, about the thickness of a finger.

Every time four or five are divided, they are put in front of one person, and the first to get these meats are Zhang Youliang and Gu Ying, because both of them are elders.

White water mutton does not mean that it is eaten in vain, such a mutton, who can eat it all the time, it is a strange thing, although it is boiled, but this is meat, a few lower belly if you are not greasy, it is a strange thing.

So to eat this lamb you must definitely serve it with a dipping sauce.

The dipping sauce is also old-fashioned, and there are still some leeks used, which are very simple, but very flavorful.

Zhang Chi got the meat, picked up one, dipped half of the meat strip into the dipping bowl in front of him, and put it in his mouth, first there was a strong leek flavor, and then the aroma of the meat.
