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.

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…

Really simple sausage rolls with BBQ leftovers
Really simple sausage rolls with BBQ leftovers. As the title might suggest, this is a recipe for the simplest of sausage rolls using leftovers from your weekend cook up. I know left over BBQ is a foreign concept to a lot of people so I say if you are one of these people, chuck a…
