Smoked turkey breast with bacon & pineapple stuffing
You and I have my friend and fellow lover of the flame, Mr Grant Coleman, to thank for this one. I didn’t even think I liked turkey until he convinced me that we were going to cook it recently. The following words of turkey praise are honestly words I did not think I would be…

Asian Mexican grilled corn salad
I’m a big fan of corn. But who isn’t, I guess. I’m also a big fan of the Mexican sweet corn salad, esquites. But everyone loves that one too. This recipe is just me concocting a different incarnation of said Mexican corn salad so I don’t overconsume and then fall out of love with the…

Grilled tumeric chicken
Fresh tumeric and kafir lime leaf is truly a beautiful combination. Like peaches and cream, the fat kid and cake, Winston Churchill and his cigar or Luke Skywalker and his sister. I fell in love with the combination pretty quickly after taking up tenure as head chef at a Thai restaurant in the Northern Rivers…

Smoked brisket pate with the leftover brisket from your weekend cook
This is a little something I came up with just the other day to use a little leftover brisket from the weekend cook. I am never disappointed with a pile of smoked brisket leftovers and I am happy to consume that brisket in a myriad of ways, but however many ways I enjoy eating brisket…

Chicken mole is good
Chicken mole is good. Mole, in Mexican, simply means sauce. But what a sauce it is. This is one version in a sea of quite possibly thousands. Put it on the table next to some corn, rice, salsas, avocado and/or crumbly cheese, and a big ol’ pile of warm tortillas. Always with a pile of…

Tamarillo chutney
The tamarillo season is in full swing in my neck of the woods so it’s time to bust out this little recipe that I came up with one year when a friend of mine gave me a shitload* of these sour little bastards from his heavily laden tree. It’s a great little chutney for stuff…

Charred cabbage caesar salad
This is a really surprisingly tasty salad so I will just let you make it and fully enjoy the surprise yourself. I like this the most when the cabbage is grilled over coals, but I still don’t hate it if the cabbage is cooked in a cast iron pan. CHARRED CABBAGE CAESAR ½ green cabbage,…

Pulled lamb biryani
I have children who are pretty certain that they do not like curry… any type of curry from any country on any planet in any universe. They just do not like curry. “Whoa up there kiddos”, is what I reckon, “I accept your challenge”. So, over the past few months I have set about making…

Christmas ham with gochujang and honey glaze
Now, there’s going to be a lot of different stories floating around the world-wide super-web around this point in time all telling you how you should cook a ham. Some will claim to be good. Some will claim to be the best. All I know is that there are a lot of different ways to…

Bread & butter pickles
I love a good garden pickle. At any given time, our kitchen bench will be home to numerous pickles and/or ferments using the produce from Jennee’s garden. NB for any inexperienced players out there; Jennee is my wife and she’s a heck of a good gardener. Grow something, pickle it and be truly impressed with…
