Yep... This is cordon bleau!!

Or, as far I my abilities can aspire to... I love the classic French stuff... I really do. Add in some proper BBQ meats.. = heaven.

Having spent a small fortune on rib of beef, I was delighted to ace Christmas dinner for 12

two joints - each 3 ribs - from The Real Meat Company

one for us pink people and one for the "well done" folk (on 30 mins before the pink one)

no salt or anything else on the meat (thanks Nibs) - just a bit of extra beef fat

cooked slow on indirect heat at < 140 C and then seared over hot coals at the end

probe in the meat all the time and a second probe to confirm temps each time I put an extra 5 coals on

managed to leave it to stand for a proper amount of time

fucking ace

I'll be doing it again and have absolutely no changes I want to make to the process - I kept a regular record of oven and meat temps and amount of coals going on


me searing the cow at the end of cooking

Very impressive....

Last BBQ of the year on here no doubt ( Aussies not included). And a right banger.

just sorting out sending the butcher some photos



the appliance of science in action on Christmas day




I love it when a plan comes together (and I don't fuck up 12lb of prime rib)



no shots of the beast being sliced and served due to me being a bit busy with making sure everything else was ready for serving and feeling fully justified in laying into my home brew like Leonidas upon the Persians


a reasonable palette of colours from the leftovers on Boxing Day

of possible interest to people here

Go Outdoors are selling the Abu fish smoker (hot smoking) for £30 at the moment - good bit of kit for hot smoked fish

although I'm not sure they sell the wood dust needed for smoking - Billy Clarke's just down the road from the Sheff branch sells it

Could Webbo also use this to heat his garage?

No need as it was a tropical 6 degrees this morning in the Yorkshire Wolds.

very easy - I can provide low cost advice

don't use it indoors

hot smoked mackerel from one of these is fantastic (and costs fuck-all)

Global warming. Bbq season getting longer and grit season getting shorter.

Give it a few years and we'll be grilling on the deck all year round and only climbing slime. At least Malham is well above sea level.

Burbage will be part of the ringinglow housing estate - built to house those displaced from the coasts. When west side story is buried under a bus station I'll finally have an excuse...

first burn of the new season for me yesterday

Mrs Starfish's friends and their families came round

highlights were -

char siu pork tenderloin - thin sliced and piled into soft bread rolls

an off cut of boneless lamb leg that no one wanted at tesco (£2.63 for 500g!)

tried steamed (and cooled) samphire with a vinaigrette dressing as a side dish - not bad, but not as good as having it pickled ]

Big Rich said it was the best barbecue food he'd ever had (17st hunchbacked yorkshireman who likes his meat)

worst hangover I've had in years

with the sunshine yesterday fired up the barbie with some left over wood. Smokey woodfire shellfish in lemon, garlic, olive oil in the fire, then chucked in a load of parsley a little chopped chilli and did a bacon, shallotte and cider rye bread to mop it up. One of the tastiest and easiest barbies I've ever done.
