A Tayst of Jerebob

Posted by on Thu, Jan 15, 2009 at 1:10 PM

Who is Jeremy Barlow having for dinner? This week at tayst, it's Jerebob, the cow raised especially for tayst by DW Farms near Pulaski.

Jerebob was a fortune domesticated bovine, hand-raised in his natural family (and later, with a nanny) to Barlow's specifications. He produced exceptionally flavorful meat, which is offered in various tastings as long as the supply lasts.

Wednesday's offering included seared strips from a couple of different cuts, cooked for seconds, so it was technically tartare. It came with a warm frisee salad topped with peanuts that was so good it was tough to pinpoint whether the beef or the salad had a better flavor profile.

Second course was a skewer of flank braised in milk, which is what's in that fuzzy picture. I blame the bar lighting, and absolutely NOT that second glass of sparkling red wine, which is a great pairing for Jerebob, as well as not being tannic-y.

Third course was a strip crusted with salt, pepper, coriander cooked juicy, pink and utterly succulent.

 

The insatiably curious Barlow is also making the air-dried beef called bresaola, and a beef-wrapped roll filled with beef sausage that sounds suspiciously like a Bacon Seatbelt.
