Ox Heart Skewers, Diced & Marinated 400g

Ox heart is most certainly an underused part of the animal. Like many offal cuts, the heart is economical, highly nutritious, and delicious, and it should therefore be celebrated, just like all the other cuts. While it can be cooked in various ways, there is something about it that lends itself to skewering and cooking on a barbecue. Its natural beefy*, iron-heavy flavour is robust enough to take on the challenge of both a marinade and the char and smoke of a barbecue, in a most complimentary way.

In this case, the marinade in question is simple and loosely inspired by the flavours of the Levant. Without wanting to overpower the heart, this marinade is designed with a specific recipe in mind. Primed and ready to be skewered, cooked on the barbecue, and served as follows: ox heart recipe w/ flatbread, tahini dressing & pickled chillis.

This will be part of a glorious collection we have selected for Father’s Day. So, if you want to treat your dad with something a little different, then look no further than this. The weather looks like it might be taking a turn, so all the more reason to fire up the barbecue and get grilling. The ox heart skewers could easily be the centrepiece of your table or part of a wider setup; a mixed grill, if you will.

*All Swaledale beef is heritage breed and raised on independent farms and smallholdings dotted around the wildly beautiful Yorkshire Dales.
