Your organiser also reserves the right to swap sweary-swears for radio edits.

You might want to get on that.

OK, I added some terrible music.

Don't think any of the ones I added are sweary.

Grim... · **Posted:** Fri Aug 04, 2017 10:06

It's okay, there's an explicit filter so I can find them easily enough.

Going to bake again. Do people like cheesecake or should I stick to regular cake?

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25588

Cheesecake is amazing.

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49232

Everyone loves cheesecake

Jem · **Posted:** Sun Aug 06, 2017 16:25

Awesome.

You don't count, Malc, you don't like food.

Malc's table is all about the quantity, not the specifics.

Are you doing prime rib of beef? Based on what's just come off my smoker, I recommend prime rib of beef.

Also wings and pork shoulder, duh, but the beef has significantly outshone those and the wings are the best I've done and I do great wings (the worst I've done have made people decide they should come here instead of going to Reds)

We are not - what temp and times you doing prime rib at?

BikNorton · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 10074

It was about 300F for 2 hours, then cooled to 275 for another 2 or 3, and I Texas cheated it for at least 2 hours of it (it was one rib, bone out).

My smoker isn't controllable at all, beyond "add/don't add coal", and I was a bit distracted by mowing the lawn and going next door for a cuppa.

I've got one like that, because I built it and it has air gaps everywhere.

What's your excuse?

Cheap smoker with no adjustable intake or exhaust that is so well-used the metal is distorted creating air gaps around the lid. I should get some fire cord to block it up really, but I'm due an upgrade anyway.

"Hey Grim..., what are we going to eat?" or "Yo Cras, what food are you making?" has been asked literally not at all. Honestly, we should have just served up the fucking grass or something.

ANYWAY not that any of you cunts care but this is what we're going to make if we haven't eaten all the meat by Saturday morning.

I'd love a dairylea slice right now.

Grim... · **Posted:** Mon Aug 07, 2017 16:35

If you're smart you'll buy shares in them before the weekend.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Aug 07, 2017 16:38

Why can't it have been double XP this weekend?!

It's not fair.

You should be flattered by this level of trust.

Why don't the sausages get a Dairylea slice?

Speaking entirely for myself that's because (a) I trust you lot fully when it come to MEAT and (b) I quite fancied the idea of just being surprised at whatever delicious madness got served up.

The phrase 'secret burger sauce' does worry me somewhat mind you.

Because they're just sausages.

Whaaaat? What's worrying about the idea of the chefs squirting their special sauce onto your burger?

Mimi · **Joined:** 27th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 25588

Smoked macaroni cheese?! That sounds ridiculously amazing. Do you have to have a special gadget to make that it have you cheated it somehow? I magnet wow to have some.

Your menu made me chuckle, too. Nice work chef-types.

Oh well. Doubt that would work in my 8x6ft kitchen. In my flat :'(

I've got to be in Reading at 11.30 on the Sunday morning so we may not be able to pop in on the Sunday morning - depends when you guys all get up really.

That's more to the capabilities of my kitchen! Do you think that'd work? Worth a try, I think.

My friend bought me smoked tofu and it was amazing. It was like the smoky part of bacon without bacon.

Grim... · **Posted:** Mon Aug 07, 2017 17:47

I've got some, it's not a terrible substitute.

Don't use too much!

Genuine question why the dairylea slices?

Always viewed that as pretty cheap and nasty cheese? Is there some culinary tip I'm missing here?

The odd time I do burgers and get cheese slices there is always a better looking range

I usually get these

Good cheese is wasted on burgers.

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Aug 08, 2017 9:47

And it makes the burger taste worse.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Tue Aug 08, 2017 9:51

Stilton is nice on burgers.

Morrison's do BBQ Burger Slice (or something), which is their fantastic crappy cheesy (can't call it cheese) slice but thicker. It's amazing stuff.

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Aug 08, 2017 10:17

Yes, I've tried them! They do a chilli version too, which wasn't so good.
