Steps:

• Prepare the meat; trim away any fat and cut into 2 5 cm (1-inch) cubes.
• Dry the meat on kitchen paper and divide between four or five small dishes.
• Heat the oil in the fondue pot to the correct temperature of 190°C/375°F.
• Test by dropping a small cube of bread into the oil-it should turn brown in less than a minute.
• If the oil is too hot and smoking, allow it to cool slightly.
• Carefully transfer the fondue pan to its lighted spirit stove to keep hot.
• Drop in the bay leaf and garlic, for extra flavouring.
• Each person cooks the cubes of meat, in the oil until done to the individual's taste.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a fondue pot or 2-quart saucepan until very hot (375 degrees). While oil is heating, cut beef and chicken, toss with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Combine pork with garlic, shallots, egg yolk and mustard and form into tiny meat balls. Decoratively arrange meats, meatballs and potatoes on a large platter, or on 4 individual plates. Arrange sauces in individual dipping bowls or plates. Place fondue pot of oil in center of table over a small candle or sterno, and adjust flame so that it bubbles but does not sputter when meat is added. Spear meat, meatball or potato on long forks, place in pot and cook 20 to 30 seconds until crispy. Remove meat from fork before eating -- fork will be burning hot. You can use wooden skewers instead of long forks for cooking, if you wish.

Steps:

• Toss beef with oil to coat. Heat a 12-inch skillet over high heat. Season half the beef with half the salt and pepper; transfer to skillet (don't crowd the pan). Sear beef, without turning, 2 minutes. Flip and cook until medium-rare, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with remaining beef, salt, and pepper. Serve with roasted vegetables and sauces.

BOEUF BOURGUIGNON

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Cook and stir beef in the same skillet until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Sprinkle flour, marjoram, thyme, and pepper over beef. Pour red wine and beef broth into the skillet; stir well. Reduce heat to low and simmer until beef is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Stir onions into the skillet. Add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms are tender and sauce is thick and dark brown, about 30 minutes.

SLOW COOKER BEEF BOURGUIGNON

Steps:

• Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef stew meat and cook until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Brown beef in batches if necessary, making sure to not overcrowd the pan, otherwise the beef won't brown. Remove browned beef from the skillet and place in the slow cooker.
• Add onion to the skillet. Cook and stir until softened and beginning to take some color, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer onion to the slow cooker.
• Place skillet back on medium-high heat and pour in half of the wine. Bring the wine to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and carefully pour into the slow cooker along with the remaining wine. Add carrots, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
• Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours.
