@Bones yes

[Bones]

@nzzp perfect, thanks bro.

To be fair anything else was going to be ignored most likely.

[nzzp]

@Bones are you still up north?

Reverse sear for any big piece of meat is the win.

[Bones]

@nzzp nah hit Welly last Friday, in EB with an award winning butcher a 3 min walk away. Tomahawk for 30 bucks is something I wasn't going to pass up.

Edit: forgot to high note, also have my Xmas buddy Chris Martin's 4 square around the corner from that.

@Tim XO improves most things Have you tried the GoodChow Paua one?

Speaking of paua, our not so local chippie does creamed paua wontons and they are simply fantastic.

[Bones]

Anyone got a big grandma?

@Bones I got given a bbq book by some south africans I knew. Included things like warthog - they just roll differently over there.

[Bones]

@nzzp it was sounding good until I saw how it's cooked. What did she do to deserve that?

@Bones sad trumpet noises

Just had some marinated seared venison hind leg from a mate we caught up wiht last month. Epic. I am full of tasty tender meat.

Spent the day at Liberty in Helensville. Give me Liberty, or give me death ... and the liberty was awesome. Joe is a top tier brewer.

I am full, happy and hoping for a BP win tonight by the Blues. Don't judge me boys.

Picked up a barely used Weber master touch last weekend for 190, with a bunch of accessories including rotisserie worth almost 150 on their own when new.

Leg of lamb going on tonight, yussss

[Bones]

Yeah pretty happy with that, combined with homemade focaccia and a simple feta salad.

Best home cooked lamb for me. Pretty much followed this and got a ridiculously fucking simple focaccia recipe off my cuz

Gave smoking a go for the first time too, cherry and hickory with a touch of oak. Not sure it took in much but hey, it was bloody nice.

Not exactly a typical ccc, but bowl of red is hard to not be delicious.

Sweet Paprika
Smoked salt
Cayenne Chilli powder
Ground Cumin
Flour
Salt
Pepper
1 bottle/can dark beer (I had a porter)
Toss the beef in a bowl with some flour, cayenne, s&p to coat
Brown it off in a dutch oven or similar and remove
Cook the onions, chillis until softening then add cumin, cayenne, oregano, paprika, smoked salt, pepper, about a couple tablespoons of tomato paste and stir well
Add beef back in and about a cup or so of beer, mix and cook a couple mins
Drink rest of beer
Add stock and stir
Cover and cook for an hour or so, stirring occasionally
Uncover and cook for an hour or so, stirring occasionally
Serve with grated cheese on and a dollop of sour cream if ya like, along with some good bread or nacho chips.
