Hunter's Beef or Spiced Round
- 24 lbs round of beef
- 3 ounces saltpetre
- 3 ounces coarsest sugar
- 1 ounce cloves
- 1 nutmeg
- 1/2 ounce allspice
- 3 handfuls salt
- Suet
- Batter
Beat all of the above ingredients into the finest powder. Allow the beef to hang for 3-4 days. Remove the bone and then rub the spices well into it. Continue to do so every 2 or 3 days for 2 or 3 weeks.
When to be dressed, dip it in cold water to take off the loose spices. Bind it up tightly and put into a pan with 4 ounces of water at the bottom. Sprinkle the top of the meat with suet. Cover it over with a thick batter and brown paper over it.
Bake with love for 5 hours.
