Flare ups....

I got a question today about flare ups and which BBQ to buy to avoid them?

Ever thought of cooking on an electric Barbeque? Some of the ones out now are really good, some can even be used in an indoor area, but check first! These ones looks pretty cool to me..

We get a lot of calls regarding Beefeater BBQ's that require repair or service. This is the website that he will refer you too as Beefeater have their own service agents but get a quote first! If your not sure by all means give Ross a call on 0415.771172 he'll be happy to talk to you.

Have a Patio Heater? NO CHARGE if we cant repair it! Bring it to us, if we can repair it $99.00 plus parts plus GST.

Hey food lovers! You could be sent a copy of Ross's book just for sending him a recipe..so why not?

Best steak on a BBQ:

I have been asked many times what is the best beef to cook on a BBQ, here are my tips...

Firstly: NEVER buy steak that has been marinaded from a butcher, it will be old and tough, the marinade is used to disquise old meat and NOT enhance it!

Prawns from China! Yes I actually got caught the other day and bought prawns that were made in China! Farmed and a bit transluscent and rubbery, can be used in Asian dishes but no good on the BBQ! Buy WA and buy fresh dont get caught out....

Just a tip, remember to cook LOW n SLOW, now that applys to Roasts, Steaks, Chicken and Fish..

We have been lucky to have joined up with Mottainailamb to try out there succulant Lamb products:

Slow cooked Lamb is the best! I cooked this one in my Gasmate Pizza oven on Low, low about 160c to 175c, but if you are doing it this way you need to watch is about every 20-30 minutes or so as the oven can be quite fierce, I cooked it on the middle rack:

Lamb Loin Chops done on the BBQ.......just brush chops with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, season with salt and cracked pepper, sprinkle with chopped Rosemary, preheat grill and BBQ plate on high for 5 to 10 minutes depending on your BBQ with hood up.

Barbeques and cooking - you know during these very difficult times we still have the outdoors and Barbequing is an Australian icon that should be used more than ever to eat healthy and be able to use the outdoors in your own home still keeping social distancing in place.

I have a lot of very easy BBQ recipes on my website so just type recipe in the search box at the top and they will all come up, Happy Cooking and if you need a hand or tips just call or email me!! Ross
