BLOODY BULL

Steps:

• To make Bloody Bull:
• Rub pre-chilled glass rims in bowl of fennel spice rub or your favorite spice rub. Pour a beer in each glass, top with bull mix. Stir with a spoon and serve.
• To make Fennel Spice Rub:
• Put the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a heavy pan over medium heat. Watch carefully, tossing frequently so the seeds toast evenly. When light brown and fragrant, pour the seeds onto a plate to cool. They must be cool before grinding, or they will gum up the blades.
• Pour the seeds into a blender and add the salt. Blend to a fine powder, shaking the blender occasionally to redistribute the seeds. Store in a tightly sealed glass jar in a cool, dry place, or freeze.
• To make Bloody Bull Mix:
• Combine tomato juice, scallion jalapeno, horseradish, lemon juice, garlic and salt and pepper in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour in a pitcher and refrigerate until ready to serve.

MARYLAND STYLE BULL ROAST

Steps:

• First you need a backhoe to dig a hole big enough to accommodate several cords of wood.
• Use hardwoods, apple is good and fenceposts are acceptable, but do not use treated or creosoted wood.
• Once the wood has burned down to a bed of coals several feet deep, about four hours, prepare the beef: cut into large chunks of 15 pounds each, wrap in butcher paper and then in wet burlap bags; tie securely.
• Toss the packages directly onto the coals, quickly cover with a large sheet of tin, and cover the tin with dirt. The secret is to keep out oxygen so the coals do not burn quickly and burn the meat. The beef is left to cook- allow 12 hours for this.
• After the 12 hours are up uncover the bundles; they will not be charred.
• Unwrap, slice and serve with baked beans, fresh bread, salads, pickles and for dessert 60 assorted pies and 30 cakes.
