Dad's Delight: A Father's Day Feast

A prime steak may be a more traditional way to show your love, so we've got you covered there too. Our T-bones, in particular, make for a fantastic celebratory, sharing steak. Grill them on the barbecue, letting the flames lick the steak in places, then let them rest well with a few slices of anchovy and rosemary laid on top, slowly melting in the residual heat of the meat. Serve with a simple salad of wild rocket leaves, shaved p Parmesan, lemon juice, and olive oil.

Alternatively, if you have a smoker and enough time to spare, why not try a Boston butt? Give it a bath in cider overnight, followed by a classic rub of sugar and spices, then let it spend a very long time in your smoker. A great little tip is to put some apple juice (or more cider) in a spray bottle and give the Boston Butt BBQ-style a spritz every hour or so. A remarkable dark crust will have formed, but underneath, the meat is so tender it can be pulled with a spoon. Serve it in brioche buns, accompanied by a crunchy, bright homemade slaw, a whole load of pickles, and barbecue sauce to complete the package.
