Anthony shares his in-depth knowledge and expert advice, so you too can bring out the very best that meat can offer.
Anthony is also staring in a new TV show, Ask the Butcher, airing from 26th March 2013 on Australia’s LifeStyle FOOD channel.
NB: This is a NEW app from Ask the Butcher, offering new functionality such as Suggest a cut, At the butchers and Prepare it perfectly. The new timer prompts you to turn your meat and most importantly advises on how long to rest your meat.
Latest reviews of Ask The Butcher app for iPhone and iPad
By far the best, most comprehensive, and most educational meat app Ive found. A couple of differences in terminology between Canada and Aus, but not a deterrent at all. Highly recommended.
Not good, the timer will only allow one steak at the time meaning you cannot cook different preferences at the same time. Ie well done and medium for example.
Complete and really helpful
If you use the Australian names for meat its good app. Theres a lot of potential here. Otherwise, its just a nice marketing tool for Vics meat and not a straight up app. Do not recommend unless you live in Australia.
I like the idea, but Meat 101 has more information and US names for cuts.
