Or maybe I should call it "Fiorentina di cavallo". Smoked on a Traeger Ironwood 650 at 105°C until 49°C internal and then seared at 230°C, each side for 3 minutes.

    Delicacy in France. Looks great. I guess that horse should have run faster in the Preakness.

    During the early 1970’s in the U.S., there was a beef shortage and some people tried eating horse meat. On “All In The Family”, a popular comedy series, Edith made a roast with horse meat unbeknownst to her husband, Archie Bunker. The laugh line Archie uttered after tasting the roast was “you really whipped up a winner here, Edith!” I’ll leave now.

    I used to have to produce “Cheval” boxes for meat. Produced for Canada. Knew of it, never tried it.

    Bruh, I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. Horses or cows it dosent make a difference.

    This looks fantastic! Enjoy!

    My aunt is a horse. She’d love this shit. Nicely cooked.

    As long as it doesn’t taste like glue and jello, I’m down

    I’ve had raw horse( from a restaurant), but never cooked. Can’t say it was amazing, but I reckon cooking it might bring out a better flavor.

    Looks delicious. My buddy from South Africa talks about horse and zebra steaks all the time. I’d love to try

    More people have eaten it in the U.S. than knows it. Some fast food chains got caught selling horse meat here. That’s just the ones that got caught. Much cheaper than beef.

    The moral debate aside, I mainly just hope you got reputable horse. I’ve heard rumors that some horse on the market can be old race horses, and those usually are hopped up on horse steroids, although Im now unsure of the validity of those rumors after thinking about it for… 5 seconds.

    It looks delicious otherwise.

    Looks amazing, how does it compare to beef?

    I the US people have adopted horses into the family space as they have dogs and cats. I’ve got family that has horses and they are “family” to them and wouldn’t think of them as a food source.

    From What I understand there are a lot of things given to horses that aren’t given to cattle in the US and could be even more detrimental to us eating it than cattle.

    I had horse steak, jerky, and salami when I was in Italy. The steak was amazing! Others tasted normal, still good though

    Glad you liked it, it’s also quite popular here in Belgium, both as steaks or in a stew. It’s definitely for people who like pronounced flavour profiles.
