Red Meat Lover’s Club “Feast of the Beasts”

The Red Meat Lover’s Club is a group of carnivores that hosts meaty events all over the place, and, in the process, the club raises money for charities through both ticket sales and auctions during the events.

I attended their “Feast of the Beasts” event, which was held at The Breslin and benefitted the Madison Square Boys & Girls Club. The menu was pretty incredible.

We started with passed bites and sips of fine whiskey, and then moved on to the main part of the meal.

First was a pair of roasted, crispy skin suckling pigs.

Absolutely delicious, especially the cheeks:

Then we moved on to lamb shanks. Endless amounts of lamb shanks…

But the main event was the roasted steamship round.

Check out this video:

The outer bits had so much great dry-aged flavor, and I was shocked at how perfectly cooked the inside was: a nice medium rare.

The sides were great too, roasted carrots, spicy broccoli rabe and crispy potato gratin.

I will definitely be hitting more of these events in the future, and you should too! They even sent me home with some cigars.
