I tell you what. Getting the right mix of seasoning, smoking/BBQ’ing time, and then getting the right sauce to baste over pork belly, is something I have – by far spent way too much time practicing. I mean I’ve probably single-handedly gone through 300 pigs. (OK OK… maybe not...

I will be going over some of the photo archives and doing some bulk posts soon, but I did this at the weekend and thought I’d do a post about it now, whilst it’s so hot outside, you coul probably get a good sear a steak on the car...

So this is a meal I cooked *today*. Currently all the blog posts have been me going through historic photos back to 2020… but I figure, I’ve just done this, so it’s a good time to share. Some time ago, somewhere, somehow… (in other words, I don’t remember) I...

Just a quick one on this, as I don’t have a lot of photos, but I certainly have been to this place a LOT (well, OK… maybe 3 or 4 times, but for a place that’s hundreds of miles away from me – that’s quite a lot, considering there...

So I mentioned in one of my previous posts about the Cobb BBQ that it was really good at anything you throw at it. I’m not kidding. I think we got a 3 rib of beef from a local farm shop, with the full intention of BBQing it. At...

So in 2019 we’d started to get into camping. We’d been going for years, every year, to ‘The Big Feastival’ – which is a 3 day food festival, originally run by or in conjunction with Jamie Oliver. It’s where I’d first tasted some of the most amazing brisket, and...

Buy three thousand briskets and keep going. Seriously though, this was a week after the terrible brisket. I was clearly determined. Looking at this cut, this looks much better, and in fact looks like the point end of the brisket (a whole brisket contains ‘the point’ and a ‘flat’...

So this is back in June 2020. I think this was my fourth, maybe fifth brisket since April. Looking back at the rub I’d used, I’m not sure what it was. It might have just been a few spices that I had in the cupboard. But… I knew when...

Pretty sure that’s what this is. I think I’ve only ever done this once, and strangely enough I have one in the fridge right now (that or skirt, I can’t remember what I bought). Anyway, the secret to cooking this (as I’ve been told) is either really quick –...
