Pulled Beef
When to pull or not to pull? Is that your question? We love pulled beef on top of mash or as in this case, creamy polenta. Think outside the roast!
To pull or not to pull...is that your question? We love to think outside the roast beef and this is so yummy. Totally winter warmer food for the entire family. If you cook it low and slow enough you won't really have to 'pull' it or shred it as the case may be, but it does go a lot further if you do.
Then pair it up with our amazing Truffled Polenta or go with Bechamel Mash, Parsley & Pea Mash, or go low carb with Cauliflower Puree.
Whichever way you go, you will find very little left over! (So maybe put some aside ahead of time as the flavours improve over a couple of days.) Enjoy.
