Breakfast tacos with chorizo salsa

The chorizo is going to carry the team to tasty-good-times town in this recipe so please be sure to procure a sausage of reputable origins and known flavour punch. Also, leaving the salsa ingredients fairly chunky to grill and then chopping them after allows them to get a little more caramelization which in turn allows…

Smoked lamb shanks with BBQ sauce and polenta

I’ve gotta be honest – lamb with a sweet glaze is not my favourite type of lamb. I don’t hate it, it’s just that I feel like sweet glazed lamb is herby-tangy lambs’ lesser cousin. The one who can’t add up so well. Imma still be civil to the lesser cousin though because we are…

(Mostly) grilled pork belly with orange & herbs

If you are into pointing fingers and letting people know how righteous your opinion is, you might call this out as a little bit of a cheaty type method of grilling. Well, that’s fine because I guess it is cheating. I’m not taking steroids or threatening competitors or even competing in a sport, but that…

Grilled lamb ribs

When my brothers and I were well younger, like knee high to a grasshopper or possibly back when pussy was a kitten, my Ma would throw a barbecue every now and then and if there was something that we were guaranteed at her barbecues was that she would be cooking a pile of lamb ribs…

Potato, chorizo and capsicum on the fire

This is something that I first made as a side dish for a little barbecue, but as I ate it I definitely had the feeling that it would do damn fine for itself as the main event… the star attraction… the big kahuna. So, I guess that bit of information is so you can work…

Okra with tomato and spices

I dare say you either love or hate okra. Everyone I know either loves it or hates it, and that is enough of a focus group based experiment for me to deduce that you will be in one of these categories too. Either way is fine by me – I’m always going to want you…
