  1. I like these crosses, easy life , good fun, no major dramas yet. I've a cocker x patt, got some querks but all in all been a good dog. Lurcher bitch I have will be my last runner , I've not done them justice work wise , the busher is as happy hunting mice easy to have off lead, definitely something I'd have another of whether I'd use mine as a stud or something else I'm not really fussed , I'd like one over a Russell or similar terrier. Obviously this is pie in the sky currently but when life slows just a tiny bit then haha....
  2. Had another go yesterday, think I've sowed a few seeds....

    I shredded the left over brisket , had it in pittas with chopped tom and cumber salad and homemade garlic sauce/mayo. Fed six of us, very tasty, so had 11 meals so far and still enough for a few more pittas, doesn't seem as expensive now , about £3 a plate.

    Not sure the weight of that brisket. Burnt ends , that's the tail of a fillet yep? No fat so do you just keep basting them? Something sticky like a chilli and honey type thing?

    Cheers , I like the idea of it and it gets thrown into all different meals the youngest likes it and he's not the biggest meat eater . I'd have to say my favourite is the belly pork and pork shoulder steaks on the bbq as for the smoking I did a couple of brisket , pork collar was decent, ribs are good too. I'm a bit bbqd out lol. Happy just to cook these lots wings and stuff.
  6. I'm out of likes and takes hours to have a list approved but pics look great guys, here's lunch, brisket, Mac cheese and allotment corn which has given to me stuffing myself sat here drinking cold milk with meat sweats....

    Ive ordered organic belly pork and few other things mail order, I won't repeat it though. Meat wasn't upto much. I use a local place called butchr. He's expensive in my view , especially for ribs and such like but does a booming trade. I try and use a local butcher for general meat , although when travelling past Costco I tend to stock up they do excellent British good quality meat , salt and chilli belly pork is a fav but it's all excellent stuff, from tomahawks to brisket and steaks or decent sized wings and thighs.
  9. Yep was definitely an experience, roll ya sleeves up and get stuck in job, everyone enjoyed , definitely recommended.

    One of the unexpected bonuses of that ceramic I got is having two young kids and a small garden they're not gonna burn themselves on it, my posts are having to be moderated so I'm behind the conversation by about four hours lol. Smoking is more of a science , BBQ is a bit more fun imho.

    Mate uses a meteor , uses same grill as me , takes temp sends info to app on phone, it's clever stuff, but I've never been tempted to use one, tbh I like smoking big meat now and again but my passion is removing the ceramic heat deflector and having a good ol' BBQ . Can get the meat so far from coals can shut the lid and chill have a beer then open vents and fire it up.

    Kannys offerings do look extremely tasty, I like the ceramic but if I go over to a metal one I'll probably make something or have one made. I've not looked at the pellet smokers I'll have a Google....

    I like coals, and don't normally do a 14hr cook over night, if I want the easy life I smoke chicken or pork etc then it's lid down and forget it but tbh I prefer it bbqd more heat and more marinade dipping. The brisket is something I wanted to try , but only repeating as kids love it, that lump on there now was £40 so bit dear for me to do regularly.

    Bloody thing went out, lol. Back in the game now, better than burning it though I guess , should be good for early lunch now.

    Not sure how long I'll stay up for but.....
  19. Do unto others and all that, I'd like to think you feckers would put your hand in your pocket if I passed, it's a deed that needs to be done . They're wonderful children because of John and Rachel and themselves .
  20. We normalise all food, get a pig from allotment, got to say even I've even shite I wouldn't normally just so they don't have any impact on there diet, tables around us praised their lack of inhibition when it came to devouring shellfish, a proud moment for me if I'm honest along with nursery/school cementing on third helpings ??
  21. Took my boys to a local pond , it was hard work having never really fished with a whip, two kids to watch/coach/and entertain. But it was successful and the youngest lost a tearaway carp early on so we fished the margin tight, catching bleak, gudgeon, bream, perch, roach and Rudd. Ending the day with a carp I hoped wouldsnap us off but standing ten foot back from the bank being strongly encouraged to land it by the kids .....a good day, off again tomorrow.
  22. Haha, yep indeed , but nice to clear history and pictures . Give me a bell when you want to head down , I'll shout you next time I head to the green grass....
  23. Looks banging that bosun , I use a honey, English mustard, with a sprinkle of ground cloves, does the family for a few weeks for ham. Most money efficient cooking I've done ?
