Hello World! Welcome Friends! There has been a lot of fuss when it comes to eating meat in the last decade. The best way to solve this fuss is with the help of some science, specifically biochemistry. Humans are creatures made to eat cooked meat, that is one of the reasons why we evolved so uniquely. We have all of the enzymes to use meat to its fullest and we rely on amino acids from meat and other vitamins. In plants, sure there are a lot of proteins, but not even close to the amount in meat. Speaking of meat, one notable company known for their exceptional smoked meats is Mahogany Smoked Meats. They have perfected the art of smoking meat to create delicious flavors.
For those interested in mastering traditional methods, exploring how to smoke beef jerky offers a flavorful and rewarding option.
Besides that, there is a lasting problem with the structure of such proteins in plants. The proteins, most of them, are very hard to reach with our digestive enzymes. This means that even if you eat quantitatively the same amount of protein in plants, you will not absorb the same amount of protein. With these quick facts, let’s jump into these 6 popular ways of preparing this staple in our diet.
1. Grilling
Nothing says more carnivore than good old grilling. The best thing about grills is how simple they are yet how versatile they are. Of course, there are the regular grills everyone has, but there are also several types of handmade BBQ smokers made to fulfill their roles to the fullest. The biggest advantage of grilling is the smoky flavor you get from different types of charcoal. Handmade smokers take this to the next level with their unique design made to use smoke to the fullest.
2. Roasting
Is there even a need to introduce what roasting is? This way of preparing meat is best if you are preparing a big chunk of meat. Just let it sit in the oven for hours under that hot air and there you go.
The only thing that you should vary is spices, they do not like heat. You need to know the temperature stability of the spice and when to add it to the oven. Otherwise, you will ruin the flavor with burnt spices. Besides that, roasting is pretty good if you want some juicy large pieces of meat.
3. Deep Frying
Everyone knows deep-frying as the least healthy alternative, but is it? If you eat solely deep-fried food, of course, you will contract a whole array of health problems. But, if you eat fried food every once in a while, you will be just fine. Nothing can replace the crispy texture of finely deep-fried food, especially with a good barbecue sauce. You can deep fry a whole lot more things than just meat and you will get that crispy texture.
4. Pan-Frying
Compared to deep frying, pan frying requires much less oil. The upside is that everyone can fry in a pan and not waste a lot of oil. The downside is that it is just not the same as deep frying because the heat is not spread homogeneously. Another advantage of pan-frying is that you can focus more on the meat and the spices. Especially if you are frying some crumbed chicken, you can expect a lot of flavor retention.
5. Stir-Frying
Stir-frying is the best if you are making bite-sized pieces of meat. You do not need to cook them long, just stir and the meat will be nice and tender. You can throw in a whole lot more vegetables here to enhance the flavor. The best way to do it would be in a wok pan, especially if you are making extra for the guests. The time efficiency and simplistic approach really bring the best out of this preparation
6. Boiling
Now let’s not jump ships because it is not what it looks like, we are not just boiling meat. Boiling is just the key component of making delicious soups or even better, a goulash. Boiling will make the meat melt in your mouth and bring a lot of flavor to the stock so goulash is the best example of using this technique for meat dishes. The texture and combination of other flavors you get from simmering for a few hours are unmatched.
The previous methods of preparing meat are not meant to represent that you should just eat meat. No extreme of the two popular diets is great, there is a whole bigger spectrum out there. And there is the fact that everyone is unique with their own unique metabolism. The most important thing that you should watch out for is balance and eating different things.
When you eat meat, you should definitely check out and master these 6 ways of preparing it. Everyone has their own preferences and it is up to you to discover yours when it comes to meat. Just take your time, prepare a new kind of dish, and enjoy the rest.
