Meat
Roast
Eland roast is a tied or bone-in joint sized for oven service—family centrepiece rather than a single steak. Large African antelope yields lean mild venison-like meat suited to steak and biltong. Season ahead, roast to temperature, rest generously before carving. Match oven heat to the muscle’s collagen. Serve with pepper, coriander seed, chilli, bush spices and red wine.
