After some delicious breakfast weāre getting stuck in with some teaching to get the lamb prepared for this evening banquet š„
Today Iām cooking a slow cooked chicken hung over the fire. Iāve stuffed the chicken with a garlic, lemon and thyme butter which will baste the chicken as it cooks. This ensures the meat stays tender and moist. Itās going to taste incredible with the citrus flavours cutting through the smokey flavour.
During the colder months thereās nothing youād like to do more than curl up around a cozy open fire. Now imagine huddling up around the flames whilst seeing an amazing meal being cooked as well. Cooking over fire isnāt just for summer, I couldnāt think of a more appropriate time to stand round a warming fire than winter and spring
Itās not necessarily all about the meat.... Here I am cooking up a storm with some amazing sides. Iām using a chapa grill to cook on, itās such a versatile bit of kit! I served up some sweet potato wedges with asparagus and carrots. These were cooked with butter, garlic and thyme. The fire added a lovely smokey flavour as well. So simple, yet so good!
It tasted as good as it looks! The lamb literally pulls apart after itās time over the fire. I served it alongside smashed baby potatoes, a zesty salsa and lovely salad. All the flavours complemented the star or the show - this incredible piece of meat. Thanks to my local butcher, ingle and caves for providing me this little beauty
A cheeky little mid way video. I marinated the lamb with a beautiful salmeura as it cooked, itās a great way to impart flavour to the meat
Iām loving the opportunity to take the new kit out for the first time. It give me the opportunity to cook this beautiful whole lamb! It tasted amazing. I slow cooked it for 5 hours over the fire. Itās nice to go back to the roots of cooking with a wood fire. It simply canāt be beat!
A great first outing of the new kit!
Even though itās a bit wet at the moment, thereās something comforting sat round an open fire. Imagine warming up and drying off watching the coals burn whilst under cover. Thereās something amazing about open fires in any weather conditions! Now imagine seeing some comfort food cooking away at the same time... it warms the body and the soul. Beautiful
When cooking pork ribs itās all about low and slow. These tasted great with my homemade bbq sauce!
A little recipe for a great salsa. It goes brilliantly with meats, fish and veg. Today it was served on top of smashed baby new potatoes
