Gourmet Keto chocolate sauce became extremely popular in Europe at the beginning of this Millennium. But chocolate and (almost) carnivore creations seem to be a rare combination. It is usually enjoyed only by very passionate foodies. However, ever since the movie Chocolat which I saw back in 2000, I’ve been dreaming of that sauce. I tried so many versions, and now that this Keto version is here, the sky is the limit.

Unfortunately, gourmet oriented people and chefs love to add carbs, starches, veggies… to their masterpieces. “Things get colourful and refreshing” – they usually say. But, since Greek Goes Keto started the #Yes2Meat hashtag on Twitter, we might as well make more gourmet recipes featuring meat. And what better way than combining meat with chocolate!?

I know, chocolate is not quite carnivore friendly, but if you are doing a Keto with an emphasis on meat, you will love and enjoy this recipe more than anyone else. After all, the sauce is there just to add an accent. Gourmet Keto chocolate sauce will do just a bit more than that in the passion department. Don’t say I did not warn you! 😉

Making the gourmet world healthy

Now, you can bake, broil, fry or roast any kind of meat you love. But if you want to stay loyal to our KMD healthy path, you’ll use grass-fed ruminant meat. Why? Well of course because of the Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio, but not only that!

Ruminant animal meat tastes better and it’s so versatile. You can play with lamb, goat, mutton, venison, deer, veal and beef… On the other side, you can also prepare some rabbit, duck or quails and cover it with the most delicious sauce you can think of – Gourmet Keto chocolate meat sauce!

The famous British-American romantic drama Chocolat showed us several savoury dishes covered in chocolate sauce. In particular, quails in chocolate sauce took my attention.

Who invented savoury chocolate sauce?

Most probably it was the Aztecs and Mayas! They would cover anything with the chocolate sauce since cacao was almost a sacred ingredient for them. In fact, even the original hot chocolate had a bit of salt and tasted more like a chocolate soup than a dessert. So, why not cover the meat in chocolate and see what happens? Chefs around the globe loved this idea, especially in France. Seems like it’s just going well with steak or any other piece of meat. It also goes well with various roasts!

Mexico still loves chocolate sauce over meat

Even today in Mexico, several versions of chocolate meat sauce is prepared for special occasions. The recipe blends bitter chocolate with herbs, vegetables, peppers and chiles. Another Mexican dish, Asado de Boda, is traditionally served at weddings and couples a small quantity of bitter chocolate with spices, orange zest, and herbs over meat.

The most important ingredient for gourmet Keto chocolate meat sauce

If you want to be authentic, you will use 100% chocolate. Well, it’s a bar with 100% cacao mass and 0% anything else. We were lucky to find such a bar and would not change it for anything. We can always add Keto sweetener and maybe some butter to make it less intensive and more dessert-alike. But what to do if you can’t find such a product? Well, improvise, of course! 😉 Chocolate meat sauce can be prepared on so many different ways.

For a quicker version, you can just add the spices from our recipe below to our Ketella recipe and reduce the amount of sweetener. You can see the Ketella video and use it as savoury sauce..

Are you Ketonian foodie?

I am assuming you are a Ketonian foodie to the full potential if you are still reading this article. 😉 In that case, you most probably know the ways to find 100% chocolate online if your local stores don’t offer it. If you are new to the Keto gourmet world, then you’ll be able to create something by just combining the ingredients from our Ketella or various fat bombs.
