There are three moderators to this base. Which will be the first to throw this thread into the Cooking Base where it truly belongs?

My bet is on TigerCast2004, the only user I'm 100% truly happy with.

This is the funniest line I've read on JC BBS (that I didn't personally write) in over a year.

Well, yeah, but stay in basic families.

Lamb, beef, and venison are generally interchangeable as full-flavored red meats. Ostrich too, for that matter.

Pork, veal, and long pig can be substituted more or less at will.

And finally, chicken, like any vegetable, can be replaced with tofu.

Beef Vindaloo is probably pretty damn good.

What's a good Indian recipe where I can substitute beef for the meat? I totally want to bastardize a dish.
