Just made a cottage pie this very instant with left over rib of beef from nye. I use my food processor and it is splendid. So go ahead and enjoy!

If I have meat left over from a joint, I cube it and reheat it in leftover gravy. I always have leftover gravy (made from the meat juices) because I'm a magic gravy maker. Then you can eat it with a baked potato and some carrots, or whatever.

That is one of my favourite meals OldMeg but my husband makes his own yorkie, plate size with all the roast dinner leftovers and lashings of gravy. ( not bisto ) yummy.

Buy those Aunt Bessie’s giant Yorkshire Puds (about the size plate) and cook as per instructions. Then line it with left over beef and fill up with vegetables and gravy.

You can make a very nice cottage pie but cutting the beef into small pieces

otherwise
beef curry
beef pie
beef pasta bake

I can't stand rehashed meat but would love it cold with coleslaw pickles and fried potatoes. Sorry!!

I as about to suggest mincing it for meat balls Teetime but like you, I disposed of the mincer years ago.

I think I'd slice it thinly and cook it with fried onions then serve it with mash, veg and Yorkshire puddings. And gravy of course.

Has anyone got any suggestions as to what to do with left over beef (steady there vegetarians and vegans). We don't have it often and I don't buy a large joint but there is always some left over and I really don't enjoy cold meat and salad. Today I have sliced the beef and put it in a casserole with vegetables like my sisiter advised she does but I don't hold out great hopes for it. I could have made Cottage Pie which I love but don't own a mincer anymore - who does? The food processor doesn't do quite the same job does it?
