[Gift guide 2024] The Carnivore

Carnivores don’t need a holiday to get a roast on – Tuesday is reason enough. They have a primal connection with their grills and can identify the doneness of a steak by smell alone. They have at least three types of salt for seasoning their steak, and will lecture you on why Maldon is superior for finishing. They boast an intimidating knife collection: heavy cleavers for bone-breaking, a slicing knife for brisket, and a boning knife for a final trim. Their prized possession is a massive chef’s knife, nicknamed something dramatic like “The Butcher,” which gets polished and admired more often than their car.
