Simply build a back garden Tandoor, then once the cement has gone off, fire that baby up and do tandoori chicken / lamb with some naan.

Simples.

Never took you for a Saffer...?

I'm not, all the dishes were within my level of competence.

I'm a fast cooking, flash grilling person. Fillet, rump and flank steak, simply seasoned with salt pepper and olive oil rub. Charcoal fire and Rioja.

I'm a rubbish cook but did manage to produce boboutie, yellow rice and apricot blatjang for a meal with the in-laws.

It was pretty good for me.

Hmm, best meat dish... I have four for contention

Brazil - simple beef roasted rare in an outdoor brick oven (brother's wedding reception)
Brazil - goat curry (restaurant)
Henley - goat marinated in a bath and baked for 12 hours with hot charcoal in a hole in the ground (friend's house for my 30th)
Near Henley - Vineyard (family) - cold smoked pork smoked for 12 hours in this converted filing cabinet:-





However a simple meat dish that never ever fails - get a rolled shoulder of lamb, prick it with a knife and stick half a dozen slivers of garlic in, salt it, wrap it in foil and cook for 3-4 hours in a low oven. No-one has ever not liked this...

A firm favourite of mine when I have people over, fairly simple do do and delicious.

pork tenderloin with caramelised garlic, plus roasted figs with pomegranate molasses

I've done variations on that theme, seriously nice.

I suppose if it was a do or die choice then for me a proper piece of topside (my local butchers run a farm so finish, slaughterhouse and hang the beef perfectly) roasted to a dark outside and pink inside gets my vote, gravy to die for from the juices.
Nice roasted spuds and proper yorkshires

Not overly complex (good food isn't in my experience) but the taste and texture is perfect.

Favourite Meat Recipe:- A good piece of fillet steak, cooked to choice - end of!

I would quite enjoy most of the previous suggestions but.....

Nah, 55 day old D rump, rare, bearnaise sauce... ( take me back to hawksmoor)

I think marinating still counts as "just meat".

I like my butcher's 28 day matured thick rump steak oiled and seasoned and put on a red hot, smoking griddle for 1 minute each side (bleu).

I also like "Weeping Tiger" - sirloin marinated with fish sauce, garlic, coriander, soy, palm sugar...flash fried as above, sliced and then dipped in a sauce of powdered toasted rice, fish sauce, lemon juice and palm sugar, with a whole finely diced scotch bonnet chilli. Leave everything to marinate for 24 hours.

I made a garlic & lemon chicken (with white wine and stock, lemon slices and diced garlic) slow cooked (4 hours at 150°C then 30 minutes 200°C) which is very simple to make but the chicken is just falling off and is lovely and garlicky and lemony.

Damn! Hungry now... and hyperDMog#1 is trying to code on my laptop with his paws. What a useful moggie.
