Almost succotash
This I a little something I shall describe as a Covid lockdown succotash. You know, the type of succotash you make when you don’t want to go into town because that disease is floating around there somewhere, so you make something that is very loosely based on succotash with whatever is left in your fridge […]

Easy peasy mac and cheesy
This is a version of macaroni and cheese that is bloody quick and easy. It is simply cooked macaroni in one pot and cheese sauce in another pot and then you get to use your evolved dexterity to pour the cheese sauce over the macaroni and mix it together. That is the simple version. You […]

Brisket cheesesteak
This is but one of the ways I have made what could be loosely described as a Philly Cheesesteak, or even more honestly described as being only very, very loosely based on the original model Philly Cheesesteak. I have reason to believe that tradition may stipulate that the steak is first thinly sliced and then […]

Kale stalk “capers”, or kalpers if you prefer
This recipe was very heavily inspired by Sean Brock’s “South”. I know you probably don’t even like kale. It probably makes you angry when people talk about it too. I feel bad for kale. Kale is a victim of circumstance. Very unfortunate circumstance. When it was adopted as the world-wide mascot for team hipster, its […]

Barbecued pork ribs with lemongrass, chilli & honey
One of the really good things about pork ribs are that they are happy to oblige just about any flavour you could want to put with them. They will sit just as happily in a tomatoey Italian ragu as they would be glistening in a sickly sweet glaze on the grill for a Summery American […]

Corn casserole and a really serious lack of corny jokes
This one was absolutely inspired by the corn casserole at Smokin’ Hot and Saucy BBQ joint in Newcastle. They make a very nice corn casserole down there. It kinda reminds me of a wet cornbread licked with a little chilli warmth and happiness and possibly a mother’s smile, so that is what I set out […]

Curried potato salad
I like potato salad just as much as the next guy. Well, that might not be the correctest statement I have ever made, for if truth be told I probably like potato salad a whole heap more than the next guy. I know it’s not a competition or anything but I’m just saying that if […]

Smoked chilli hot sauce
This is a little number I like to whip up when I have chillis that need using. It’s not a filthy hot as I prefer a little heat and a good flavour with my hot sauce. I am not a fan of a hot sauce that will remove the roof of my mouth, taking with […]

Barbecue cassoulet
This little number is based on the classic French casserole of beans and a few different types of meat (confit duck is traditionally a must) which is gratinated with breadcrumbs so you know this is going to be good because I just mentioned that it’s based on a classic French recipe and the thing about […]
