Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a good table centrepiece joint?
Presence and patience: a joint that looks generous on the board and carves for a crowd. Rolled brisket, topside, leg of lamb, pork shoulder with crackling or a whole slow grown chicken all hold the middle of a table properly.
Which centrepiece needs the least attention on the day?
Lamb shoulder or rolled brisket. Both go into a low oven in the morning and simply wait for lunch, turning more tender the longer they sit. That leaves your attention free for the table rather than the oven door.
How much meat should I allow per guest?
As a working rule, 250 grams of boneless joint or up to 400 grams on the bone per adult, with a little extra if you want leftovers, and you always want leftovers.
What is rolled brisket like as a roasting joint?
Slow-roasted, it is the connoisseur's centrepiece: deep beefy flavour that topside cannot match, carving into rich slices after four or five gentle hours. It asks for time rather than skill.
Can a whole chicken really be a centrepiece?
A slow grown bird can. These are chickens with genuine size and stature, raised over months rather than weeks, and one roasted well, brought whole to the table, makes an argument no platter of breast fillets ever could.
