Books for Cooks

Meatsmith owned by celebrated Australian restaurateur Andrew McConnell (Gimlet, Cutler & Co, Cumulus, Supernormal) and world class butcher Troy Wheeler burst onto the Melbourne scene in 2015 offering bespoke butchery and much much more from their Smith St store. Instantly, a go to resource for anyone who loves cooking with meat, Meatsmith has provided Melburnians with a wonderful range of ingredients, meals and ready to cook dishes that are truly delicious. Their first cookbook, Meatsmith: Home Cooking for Friends and Family, celebrates quality heritage meats, skilled butchery and a chef’s point of view on eating and drinking well. With their beautiful book in hand, featuring more than 80 brilliant recipes, you can take your home cooking and entertaining to the next level. Master signature dishes such as beef wellington or glazed roast duck, delicious charcuterie, barbecue and roasts are complemented by side pairings with an array of classy salads, vegetable dishes, and sauces. There is even a dessert! We've been waiting for a Meatsmith cookbook ever since it opened. We will be having a lot of fun cooking from this! And we think you will too. Please join us on Wednesday 8th November for a wonderful conversation with Andrew and Troy about their vision for Meatsmith, their new book and how to make the perfect beef wellington! Tickets are limited.
