In the days when sugar was king, the roasts, fillets and other prime cuts of beef or pork went to the Great House. Our ancestors would get the tails, head, tripe, and feet. They were called the ‘fifth quarter’. All of these ‘fifth quarter’ pieces require long, slow cooking that turn into succulent meats that are must-have signature ingredients for many of our favourite, beloved local dishes, that help define our cuisine.
