What would you do with all this meat?

[JenniferYellowHat1980]

I'm thinking of experimenting with a monthly batch cook and have used MySupermarket to price up meat by the kilo. I currently have the following in my basket for £68:

2.25kg 12% fat beef mince
1.4kg unsmoked gammon joint
20 pork sausages (DD is extremely picky and this is one of her staples)
2 x 2kg chickens
2.2kg leg of lamb
1.4kg beef roasting joint
1.2kg salmon
1kg chicken fillets

We are a family of two adults and two DCs. DS is a toddler and doesn't eat much in one sitting and as mentioned, DD will turn her nose up at most of this but will be offered it.

So, what would you do with all that? It might well last longer than a month.

The fatty mince sound ideal for burgers where it'll stop them being too dry and any excess will run out if you cook them on a griddle pan!

I'd tend to dice most of the red meat, at least this time round, and freeze it ready to go into a casserole - I do batch cook casseroles but I find they're a bit homogenised so like to have some prepared casserole meat handy if I have some interesting leftovers or things in the fridge (defrost overnight, chuck in slow cooker).

Interested to see what others do with the salmon!

If you really fancy a roast you could do that with lamb (though often i take it all off the bone and dice) but any beef silverside or topside etc I casserole. Popeseye, sirloin, ribeye etc make good beef roasting joints.
