I hope this makes the sandwich cut. Lunch today.

Cucumber, lettuce, tomato, capsicum, lettuce, red onion, 30h slow cooked pulled girello 🥵, and some gravy made from the drippings. Dijon mustard and Mayo as the sauces.

Managed to keep most of the filling between the buns while eating.

Edit: I should share the recipes. For the girello/top round pulled meat: https://www.craftbeering.com/beef-eye-of-round-roast-slow-cooker/

And the gravy (admittedly not my favourite, but here it is): https://www.lecremedelacrumb.com/beef-broth-brown-gravy/

  • I felt it was missing a little something something, so I thought I would add back in a little bit of fat to see how it went. I added about a tablespoon (or two?) of salted butter. It was better, but still missing something. Not in any way like KFC gravy, but it pairs well enough with the meat.

    Thank you! Next time, I might chuck it under the grill and toast some cheese…

    It very nearly fell apart. Only a slice of tomato and capsicum fell out the bottom.

        Same!! But the doctor said to lower my cholesterol (the saturated fats… shakes fist), and cheese is a very slippery slope for me.

            I know… You can imagine how disappointed I was when the doctor told me this. Less fatty (delicious) meats, less dairy :( But I love pizza, lasagna, and BBQ meats…
