Awesome meaty opinions. Totally sums up our creedos.

Here we go. It’s happening.

We've been flirting with the idea of starting a blog for a while now, after a few people have suggested it over the years. We've held back before, feeling like the world didn't need yet ANOTHER food blogger. But Mr. Eatings is nothing if not a walking contradiction and after Mrs. Eatings bought me a Tweat Up Big Eater 2014 season ticket, we figured that the fantastic foods we will be eating should be recorded for posterity. 

And thus Big (ea)Tings is born. One more voice screaming into the void "LOOK! LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS I SHOVE IN MY MOUTH!". 

Burgers, bbq, steaks, ribs and wings and tings – we love feasting on the flesh of animals. Suffice it to say this blog is unlikely to feature too many recipes for kale and calendula smoothies.  While the majority of the posts will be about ridiculous meats, we do enjoy the occasional quality dining experience; the best so far being The Hand & Flowers in Marlow, featuring a duck breast that came with a sauce so goddamned tasty we still get misty eyed thinking about it to this day. Look, here it is. Marvel at its beauty.

Other awesome places I've been to (and bang into) in recent times include Pitt Cue, Big Easy (50% soft launch 6lb lobster bizniz), every branch of Hawksmoor  (bad boy breakfasts a'gwarn at Guildhall. Patty & Bun, Burger Bear (bossing the bacon jam)… Well, you get the picture.

Outside of the contribution to the animal apocalypse Morrissey likened to child abuse, hopefully you'll find what we have to say informative, interesting, perhaps even amusing. Or at least not awful.

And so, if you're sitting comfortably, we shall begin.

Keep it foolish.
