Dropped by the local store I shop yesterday eve and found beautiful, relatively speaking, Aussie ground beef at just $5/lb. Normal here in Korea is for local beef that runs closer to $20/lb. A pot of Bart's chili will erupt this weekend.

Sure its beef?

Good for you

My Dad said that when he was in the Army during WWII, they called horse meat, Australian Ox. I suspect that what they called corned beef was indeed horse meat, when I was in in 1967-1969. Texture and color was all wrong for beef. miles

Horse - the breakfast of Iditarod champions.

Horse was quite common when I lived in Kazakhstan. On the menu of any reasonable place. No horse here and dog, though traditional, is kept very quiet and insulting if one of "us" mentions it. So we don't. Ya learn to live in the country ya live in... Ain't hard really. Anyway, chili is on tomorrow.

My best friend through childhood's family owned and operated a horse slaughtering company. His mother was from Greece which is where they exported most of the equine[?] to.
We ate it all the time. I always liked it. From memory it seemed to fall somewhere between venison and beef.

i always wondered about the bulgogi when i lived in the ROK. sometimes it just didn't seem quite right. i was dang near a vegetarian when i lived there.

Vegetarian in ROK?

Night soil.

Indeed, it could be another Australian meat.

I've heard Aussie meat can't be beat... but the image shows that it can.
