BBQ Adventure: quick porkchops (with Hog Waller rub)

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

Again not too much time (mid-week) so just used my trusty Weber to cook up some pork chops with some grilled asparagus. Also wanted to comment that although I make my own rubs it’s sometimes convenient to buy per-made ones, I found I nice Texan one sucklebusters that does some excellent rubs. For these porkchops I used a rub called Hog Waller. Read More→

BBQ Adventure: Chicken in white sauce on KK

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→

Stoker vs Guru – Which one to use

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

I discovered something interesting (or it may just say something about me) about my guru/stoker usage. Depending on the length of the cook and perhaps the “complexity” I tend to either use my guru for some and my stoker for other cooks. So what am I trying to say here? Read More→

Review of Butchers finished and 1 selected !!

Monday, October 6th, 2008

Well it took a 2 months (and have had various butchers I used) but I reckon I found a worthy butcher for my BBQ adventures. Although some of them (Dee Why was good) came close I feel the overall helpfulness and variety/quality of meats of this butcher made the choice easy. So who is it? Read More→

BBQ Adventure: Roast Sirloin Beef (using roasty bag)

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→
