We had a little outing today…. A couple of our friends had their permanent resident visa approved. Whcih is great as it means they can stay in Oz indefinitely. What better way to celebrate than to have a BBQ in the park. Read More→

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→
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→
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→
To show I’m still around (am going through lots and lots of BBQ photo’s) just wanted to show the bag of charcoal I usually get. The two local stockists are both barbecue places one sells it for 33 dollars the other for 35 (guess which one I use?) Read More→
Yeah I know, I have been BBQ-ing but have also been very very slack with updating my blog(my excuse is too busy at work so a bit lazy on the net). Some blog entries that will be coming soon:
Pizza stones.. I bought one here in Sydney and had one delivered from Qld (different quality so let’s see how the reviews compare). Read More→
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→
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
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→
Well I had a craving for chicken so I decided to cook up some chooks on the barbie. I also wanted to try some of the world famous Sucklebusters rub I got a few weeks back. I decided to cook a beer can chicken (with a Weber gadget instead of a can) and a chook with some plain rub. Read More→
