Crossy Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Which part of the Farang World? European, British (yes we are special of course) US and Aussie cuts are all different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieH Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Is there a particular "cut" that you seek ? a picture might help you secure what you seek from local outlets/vendors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Also, I note that Makro (at least our local one in BKK) has pictorial illustrations of the various cuts available. Whilst I'm sure they are mostly decorative they do at least show roughly where on the beast each cut originates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to be able to buy Pork Loin Roast and decent sized spare ribs- all cuts from our respective countries do those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try Makro, we get whole pork loins (2 feet long) which will roast well, ribs too but you will have to ask if you want whole racks. EDIT I see you don't rate Makro.

CharlieH Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Yes, my experience too with Makro, ask for whole loins, and the ribs are usually cut down, but you may be able to order them. In most villages/small towns there will be a local butcher who slaughters early morning for market that day. Try asking the gf/wife to find out and you can order for the next day straight off the animal. Just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two Tops Supermarkets in KK and one in Rai Et. These will have western cut meat. https://www.google.com/search?safe=active&ei=QzobXc-WCZWLmgeS1of4BQ&q=tops+supermarket+khon+kaen&oq=tops+supermakets+kho&gs_l=psy-ab.1.0.0i22i30.6337.13579..18066...0.0..0.236.2147.13j6j1......0....1..gws-wiz.......0i71j35i304i39j0i13j0i13i10j33i10i160.NPRwTtxLWhw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that I do buy Makro beef steak and make hamburger or mince. If you use imagination you can do ok with the meats from Makro but if you can't use Tops, it will cost you. Other source are the online farang food companies out of SinCity they do ship. A source in isaan which I thank is excellent is http://nookiesdelights.3baht.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveK Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I'd give my left ball for a medium-rare T-bone. There's a steakhouse near Terminal 21 that does them to a world-class standard but eating one might well affect your ability to qualify for your next visa.
