Poll of the Day > What is your favorite kind of meat?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Beef.

Fish annoys me.

I wanna add some fish to my food; but Tuna isn't that good for me and Salmon always comes as a on-the-bone chop when I want chunked or flaked salmon.

Of course, i'd rather have haddock or scallops, the superior fish, but... ehhh

;

Also, something about fish. ok, pretty much every single fish has a unique taste to it (except the shitty basa-likes that have zero flavour at all throw in trash), cuz they are a great number of different species.

Beef is... beef. We don't really have any bison or ox any more, and the various game animals are kinda their own thing of generic "mammal meat" ... except pork somehow. I've never eaten whale but I'd guess it tastes like fish-pork.

For bird, now, bird I think all of them taste the same and it really comes down to what percentage of white/dark meat you want. I like white meat and I like it dry which is why I like turkey.

I probably eat more chicken than anything else, but mainly because it's the cheapest. There are few meat or meat alternatives as inexpensive as a whole rotisserie chicken for $5 from Costco. Fish is probably second, mostly tuna, mackerel, and sardines, all canned. I really love a good rainbow trout, but trout's usually fairly hard to come by and/or expensive.

Of those 4 options in the poll, I probably eat beef the least, even though a grilled rib eye steak is my favorite meat. I don't have it often because it's very expensive; last I checked it was $12 a pound at Costco for USDA Choice.

I've tasted mutton once and hated it. It was really nasty. And I'd never eat goat meat because some of my friends are goats.

Where's lamb, turkey and ham?

Probably Chicken overall.

Ham is pork.

Chicken probably should have been "poultry", since one of the options is "fish" and there's less of a difference between chicken and turkey than there is between salmon or trout and a whitefish like swai or catfish.

Lamb and deer meat are nothing like beef. Terrible poll.

Beef is top, but I avoid eating it too often. Like maybe once or twice a week.

Chicken is second, and I eat that all the time.

Beef, by far. Its versatile and I like it in just about every way.

Yeah, those are glaring omissions.

Personally though, Id say ostrich.

Do you know that ham is a cut of pork?

Ham and pork are distinct enough to each get their own place on the poll.

Nope. Ham literally comes from pig and is pork. The only distinction would be the size of the cut and how it's prepared.

Which is a huge distinction because it massively changes the taste.

No it doesn't. It's like the difference between a pork chop cooked in gravy or with shake-n-bake. It still is pork, still tastes like pork, just different seasoning.

Beef lately...

Beef all the way, but I can't turn down a good porkchop

chicken is typically the best bet if youre getting something on the cheaper side but nothing beats a quality steak

Given that you clearly have no tastebuds, your input is worthless.

Why would I lose my mind over someone who thinks ham doesn't taste like pork? Lulz

Pork because Bacon.

Bacon is God tier.

Ever since I got my air fryer I've been making hella beef jerky... It's nice.

Yeah. I use the Ninja.

Notice the Dehydrate option. Just gotta put your beef in there for a good 3 or so hours and you got delicious beef jerky.

Can tell me more of the settings of the dehydrate option? You literally said nothing about how you make beef jerky expect the type of air fryer you use.

It's not that complex bro lol. You marinate whatever thin slices of beef you wanna marinate, put the beef in the air fryer, set it at a good temperature (I usually do 165 degrees F) hit Dehydrate, and then 3 hours later...beef jerky.

Now you've finally answered my initial question instead of being an advertisement. Thanks.

Hell no - might as well just buy a salt lick, smear it in crisco, and take a taste of it every now and then just like a horse.

THEGODDAMNBATMA posted...

chicken is probably the most consistently good meat, but the best fish clears any of the other meats

yeah chicken is almost always good, but perfectly cooked salmon is incredible

if we include cooking and not just eating I think I would say pork. I eat a lot of porkchops lately since they're so easy to cook and eat. (and cheap too)

I like all of them. It depends on how they are prepared, too.

I sort of know what you mean but ham is pork. just like beef jerky and steak are both beef. ham is just pre-cooked and preserved/cured (cookedness and curing method varies).

I can understand y'all getting upset about veal and lamb not being on here, but saying ham isn't pork is just crazy.

Veal is beef but it makes no sense to not include lamb. There are 10 poll options. That could have also included game meat under it's own category and goat too.

loooool

fish for sure

nigiri is my jam

I eat tinned smoked mackerel on bread with horseradish cream most days for lunch, super easy and delish

fish is great

Long pork.

Chicken.

I don't do beef or pork for flavor (and sometimes texture) reasons. I can do seafood, but it's unnecessarily pricey for anything good around here. Turkey or duck can be fine if done right. Chicken is affordable and easy to work with; so it's only my "favorite" for economic reasons.

man I found my absolute favourite tinned mackerel here, smoked and peppered, and idk what I'd do without it T-T

(I'd live I'm being melodramatic but absolutely love it)

only annoying thing is the place I get bread from only accepts cash for under 5 purchases so that's literally the only reason I carry cash lol

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/9/99c3608e.jpg

also I'd say after fish, pork is my favourite

pork shoulder, pork belly, pork meatballs, pork for like banh mi

pork is great

though I usually cook chicken thighs myself for reasons (good crispy skin and easy), pork I prefer going out and more special occasions cooking at home (carnitas, al pastor, banh mi etc)

Don't think I've ever had mackerel. I really want to try mackerel sushi though.

are there any other dry fish, like Haddock and scallops?
