@seawolf you must ridiculously organised if you’re planning meals a year ahead!

@ARNC I am, and I don’t like moving extra crap. Let’s use it up and try to start with a clean slate!

@goosehd looking great!

For some reason we couldn't find mussels even though we are at the coast - still tasted great though

[SFMCfranky]

Mushroom, leek and bacon quiche - just out of the oven. I used a new recipe for the pie crust that called for a little cold vodka. Hopefully it works out.

No photos of the after jerk chicken, but was 90mins at 150C with cherry and hickory wood. Served with rice and peas, coleslaw and mango salsa. I don’t say this lightly based on how much time I spend in the Caribbean, but it was some of the best jerk I’ve ever eaten

[goosehd]

@Alex If you get a chance, would love the recipe for the jerk please.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd I feel like there should be some kind of in-person mod meeting of the minds, preferably when @Alex is working his magic on the barbecue

[bluemantra]

@Alex What size BGE do you have? Large?

[Alex]

@goosehd honestly, i just used Walkers Wood and butter, I think it was all in the smoke

[Alex]

@bluemantra just the regular one at home, and we have a Big Joe III at work

[Filson]

A childhood delicacy. Bread fried in egg and milk. With cheese, herbs and ketchup!

[bluemantra]

@Alex Thanks. I'm looking at a Kamado style and was just curious if the Big Joe III or BGE XL is big enough for a large family and the occasional party. I do have a gas grill currently, but like the versatility of a Kamado.

I have both at home and at work. The gas one at home is convenient, if we want to grill some chicken breast quickly for eg, its not worth the time to set up the egg and get to temp etc etc. They both have a good use case.

How large, and how many heads are we feeding at the party

[goosehd]

I have the large BGE and it will easily feed 6 people and possibly 8 without any issues. Two spatchcock chickens or two complete racks of ribs or two pork shoulders or a lot of chicken pieces...and that's not even using the different layering racks that are available.
