@Jii:

Red cabbage, oven roasted beetroots with thyme, rocket, toasted pinenuts, feta cheese and chicken served with a dijon mustard vinaigrette and some cilantro. Really good, definitely one of my favorite dishes at the moment!

Here's a shot of my smoker from the summer. The chimney is six feet tall to give you an idea of scale.

Firing up the smoker on a really cold January night (tonight).

Jerk chicken that has been marinating for two days.

I'll post updates when the chicken progresses.
