Another great month of cooking. Highlights this month include:

  • Crown Roast of Lamb – one of the most spectacular looking cooks I have done so far.
  • Grilled Halloumi Burger from DJ BBQ’s new book – probably the best feedback on any of my cooks so far!
  • Tomato Pie from the same book, a dish that doesn’t sound like much but tastes so, so good!
  • More veg and fish dishes, really enjoyed them all again.
  • Kerala “fried” chicken on the Vortex, so crunchy!
  • 1st review on my blog – The Houlker Flame Guard.
  • More taco’s from the awesome book by Breddos Tacos.

January:

Kicked the year off with some really nice cooks. Planet Barbecue by Steven Raichlen provided some great recipes to start off with.

  • The pulled hand of pork was a nice cheap cut of meat to do pulled pork with.
  • The Rotisserie leg of lamb from Planet Barbecue was outstanding, on the hit list for 2018 already!
  • The Barbacoa was great as it used a lot of ingredients that were new to me, another one for the hit list in 2018.
  • Lamb Steaks with Szechuan pepper cooked in cast iron on the Uuni was fantastic. Loving cast iron cooks on the Uuni!
  • Smoked Lamb Shoulder by Jess Pryles was also a cracking cook. and one I would repeat with lamb shoulder again. Definitely on the 2018 hit list.
