Yeah I know it’s holidays but I reckon it is a midweek cook (as I didn’t have mcuh time nor did I want to spent a lot of time). Anyway we decided to have some shrimp on the barbie, and since we both like prawns, garlic and spicy the choice was easy: Chili and Garlic prawns!!! Read More→

BBQ Adventure: Chicken in white sauce on KK

Posted by: paulr | Comments (0)

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

Well I finally found some time to cook on the BBQ. Decided to cook a couple of chooks. They’re easy and if I cook two it usually means leftovers so more effcicient (and delicious). The recipe I chose was an Alabama style chicken in a white sauce (yeah, I’ll post the recipe on the forum!). Strangely enough the sauce has vinegar (and mayonaise etc.) but it actually seems to “work”; it tastes great with the smokey flavour of the chicken. Read More→

Posted by: paulr | Comments (1)

Saturday, October 4th, 2008

We had a friend over for dinner tonight and cooked up some roast sirloin beef. The rub we got from taste.com.au but I modified the recipe slightly to accomodate cooking with a roasty bag. I have blogged about the BBQ liners and now also have a roasty bag. Both products I fully like/use (and actually endorse (yeah yeah my word is worth a lot ). Read More→

Sunday, September 28th, 2008

Well we were in the mood for some paella and as I hadn’t made it in a while we got the ingerdients and did a cook this afternoon. I based this cook on a great recipe from the Naked Whiz you can find his full recipe here. As I’m a lazy so-and-so I have changed his recipe ever so slightly. Still get’s a good result! Read More→

Saturday, September 20th, 2008

Well we had some friends over on Friday (read 8 of them; well actually 7 since one of them fell sick at the last moment). We had some butterflied lamb on the Komodo Kamado.
I used butcher B2 (well my wife did) and once again their service was great. She asked for their biggest leg of lamb and to butterfly it, which they obviously did. Read More→

Research: butcher (5b) – B2 Rolled Loin of Pork (crackling)

Posted by: paulr | Comments (0)

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

So after a little nights sleep and a busy day I estimated the cook to be ready around the 20:00 mark. I decided to start the cook at high temps (approx 475F) which should result in nice crackling. Finish it of with a temp around the 375F for about another one and a half hour for this 2kg loin of pork would mean a total cook of approx 2 hours (end internal temp at 160F). Because of the initial high temps I wans’t going to use my Stoker (probes are rated up to 400). Read More→

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Well I made a fateful error today (too hungry is my excuse)… I did a quick grill on my Weber but didn’t take any photo’s. Yeah I know no photo’s no proof no BBQ. As it is still during the week (and work is taxing at the moment) I only got home around 7… Read More→

BBQ Adventure: Roasted Duck (crispy skin)

Posted by: paulr | Comments (0)

Saturday, July 5th, 2008

Well I thought a Saturday would be a good time to try out another duck (specifically how to get crispy skin). In the morning we went to the monthly organics markets in Sydney Darling Harbour and bought a peking duck. The guy suggested we had muscovy but although this type of duck has more meat we like the taste of peking duck better (less chewy!), so we bought peking.

BBQ Adventure: Roast Beef with Gorgonzola Sauce

Posted by: paulr | Comments (1)

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Well again it’s been busy at work so I didn’t have very much time…
Since BBQ-ing (in this case grilling) is an easy thing to do I cooked up a Roast Beef (heart smart at Woolworths). Yeah I know I really really need to find me a good butcher (I have some for various cuts but not a single one; ah well that’s going to be a little project over the next few weeks/months.
Back to the cook, my lovely wife found a great recipe (which I’ll publish on the site) for beef with a gorgonzola sauce. Read More→
