Invited to a grand final barbie? There's a right way and a wrong way to turn up.

Wrong: a share bag from the servo. Right: a butcher arranged tray of good snags or a couple of steaks for the host. Guess which one gets you invited back next year.

Swing by on your way over. We'll wrap it up nicely.

Every grand final barbie has one person who grabs the tongs and won't hand them over. If that's you, this one's for you.

It's a pressure job. Everyone's hungry, everyone's watching, and everyone's got an opinion. Make it easy on yourself: thick-cut chops and proper snags are far more forgiving than thin supermarket stuff when you look away for a big moment in the game.

Tong-holders, come and see the lads. We'll set you up.

Shout at the telly all you like. It won't change a thing.

What you can control: whether the steak is grass-fed, whether the snags hold together, and whether the chops are cut thick enough to take a proper char. Leave the rest to the footy gods.

Come in and back the only winners you get a say in.

Picking a team to go for is easy. Picking what goes on the barbie takes a bit more thought.

Our starting line-up: snags to keep the crowd happy early, lamb chops for the ones who hover near the grill, a scotch fillet for the host, and pork belly for anyone patient enough to wait for the crackling.

Tell us how many you're feeding and we'll pick the side for you.

Every grand final has one moment everyone's still talking about on Monday. At your barbie, make it this.

A grass-fed tomahawk, seared hard and fast, then rested before the game. Slice it thick, pass the board round and watch the room go quiet for the right reasons.

Ask the lads to pick you a good one and we'll wrap it for the trip home.

Happy Father's Day.

To the ones doing the cooking today and the ones being cooked for. To the ones who taught someone how to carve, and the ones still pretending they know.

Enjoy the day. And give it a proper rest before you cut it.

From all of us at The Dublin Butcher.

Tomorrow is the one.

Saturday before Father's Day. We open early and the good stuff goes early, because it always does. The tomahawks and the rump caps are usually first to go.

If you want something particular, come at the start of the day rather than the end of it. And if you have no idea what you want, come anyway. Tell us who you are feeding and we will do the rest.

The Dublin Butcher, 23 The Centre, Forestville. See you in the morning.

Not every dad wants a steak. Some of them want the whole table.

A rolled shoulder of lamb that has been in since ten and comes out at two. A rib roast with the bones left in. Something that fills the house up and takes no attention for four hours, so he can sit down for once.

If that is your Sunday, ask us on the day and we will tie it, score it and tell you exactly how long to give it. Bring the number of people and we will work backwards from there.

A quiet word about this upcoming weekend.

The Saturday before Father's Day is the busiest morning we have all year. Every year, somebody comes in at half past eleven wanting six tomahawks and we have to tell them the last four went at nine.

So if you know what you want, tell us now. Call in, or come past and we will write it in the book. We will cut it fresh on the Saturday and have it ready with your name on it.

Just tell us what and the quantity and we'll sort it out.

Which steak for which dad. A short guide from behind the counter.

Talks about marbling: scotch fillet. He wants the fat running through it, and he will tell you why while it rests.

Likes it lean, no fuss: eye fillet. Tender, quick, hard to get wrong.

Thinks he is a chef: tomahawk. It is theatre, and he will put it on his phone before he eats it.
Just wants a proper feed: rump cap. Underrated, big flavour, best value on the board.

Cooks for everyone else: a rolled and tied roast. Feeds the table, and he gets to carve it.

Not sure which one he is? Tell us the dad and we'll tell you the cut. We've been doing this a while.
