Over the past month I've adapted from LC to an 'All Meat Diet' (Courtesy of my Doctor) and now Raw Meat in general. (My choice, entirely) and now I'm re-allowed to consume spices/herbs and etc...
What I'd kindly love is some recipes ideas to go along with the meat (although plain and raw is good too - but it could or may get boring) What I am not after is a lengthy debate on why this particular 'diet' is wrong for me and etc... that and itself won't be appreciated.
Please do consider, I'm only wanting spices/herbs condiments/ sauces. (Fruits and Vegetables are a most definite no - although Onions are allowed)
Thankyou.

Cinnamon, ground turmeric, ground coriander & fresh rosemary would go well with beef - mustard too, especially wholegrain mustards - orhoney-mustard too. . Make gravy from the pan/dish brownings to go with this. Spread mustard over the meat too.
Sage and thyme for chicken - Lemon grass & lemon thyme too. A lemony flavoured sauce/gravy would come from using lemon flavoured herbs. Put some of the herbs in the cavity when cooking/roasting.
Pork - sage, lemon grass, lemon thyme,
Lamb - mint, apple mint, thyme, rosemary sprigs pushed into the meat before cooking, or leaves crushed over and left to flavour the meat, mint sauce, mint jelly, push garlic cloves into a roast before cooking.
I recommend freshly picked - supermarkets sell a variety of herb plants in their produce section that might be of help.
Hope this is of help.

I think she's after sauces and spices to go with RAW meats not cooked meat.

Do you think this might work?
Using finely sliced raw lamb, or snitzchel cut raw beef, coat one side with freshly ground black pepper and the other with finely chopped fresh herbs, salt and a little lemon juice and roll up like sushi. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and leave for a few hours, then slices like sushi.

Hi Randomized, fistly don't let anybody stop you from your path, you will get strong and healthy on it. Have you thought of making your own biltong? Spice it with pepper, roasted crushed coriander. Make sure you get fat on the meat you want to dry. You can find biltong boxes for drying on trademe.

What are the benefits of this way of eating, randomized ? It is your business of course and I am asking purely out of interest without any intention of passing judgement.

I make it in two ways, sometimes I will use schnitzel cuts, being thin I let them dry to an crisp and eat it like chips. Or I use ribeye that I cut or rump pre-cut and let that dry to about 50%. That makes for soft tender strips with a different taste.

No problem at all.
I have PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) in which I have major hormonal imbalances. So anything considered 'carby' is pretty much hell for my system.
With the raw meat, I have alot more energy to be able to do things. (Although cooked meat worked too, Rare-ish) I don't feel as if I have this huge brick in my stomach after eating. No heavy 'bloated' feeling. I'm not so lethargic or even depressed and I have no digestion issues when I just eat meat.
Another factor is, I don't get these 'insane' (almost considered pregnant-like) craving for food. It doesn't control my life anymore where I am consistently thinking about/dreaming of what I can eat next.
I also have a failing liver and since the doctor recommended just sticking to meat. My liver is actually healing and on the mend. which I am estatic about. (elsewise I'd have had a 20/40% survival rate with a transplant)
hmm what else, my nails are strong, My out-of-the-blue-after-so-many-- years-without ezcema is finally healing (it was linked to my failing liver) My skin is pretty much clear and healthly looking and overall I look healthy and FEEL healthy.
Another factor is weight-loss, but I'm not quite so really focused on that anymore (although i do need to slim down a few sizes) I'm back at 107kgs. (5'10" frame) which is where I orginally was before I ballooned up after Istarted taking all this medication/antibotics/Steriods- linked to my eczema. (At the start of the year I was 115kgs-ish)
Hope that helped.

Kirinesha I just slice it thinly and eat it thats the thing about raw theres no cooking, but generally I never serve it that way just eat a few in the kitchen while cooking the rest :) my wife would object by never kissing me again if she knew. I have done steak sliced thinly by sprinkling with lemon juice and soy sauce thats nice too.

Raw steak I have no issues about, especially with lemon juice. I've had carpaccio many times. Raw kidney has never called out to me though. . !
