My daughter is cows protein intolerant, which is different to lactose intolerant. It means even the lactose free options at the supermarket aren't an option.

I wanted to make her a carbonara for dinner tomorrow night and to be honest the cornflour, butter and plant based milk beschamel has never really done it, the texture isn't that lovely creamy you get when using actual cream.

So I got creative tonight, and used a technique I picked up from an Indian recipe to quickly blanch some almonds, then deshelled and food processed them up. Threw them into a pot with some almond milk and garlic then stirred for a while till it reduced and thickened. Put it back in the food processor and blended some more. The end result is magical, it is super thick and creamy, pretty close the the real deal, can't wait to help her eat it tomorrow night.

Also hope this helps anyone on here who is in a similar situation or even vegan.

no mate its a bugger. sorry was on phone should have clarified. pretty much no dairy, with the exception of cheese. soft cheeses will upset her tummy too. no cows yoghurt, its fortunate there are sooooo many plant/nut based probiotic yoghurts on the market these days. for milk she usually drinks soy as its pretty thick, but almond milk is preferable as its higher in calcium, unfortunately it is also alot waterier so if we do give her a bedtime bottle she will soak her nappy, rather than retaining it like the soy. its a tricky situation, but once we know the boundaries it was easier to manage. its not a huge change for us anyway, tegan is lactose intolerant, so we were already halfway there when it came to diet sensitive persons.

fingers crossed she grows outta it, although because of mums diet sensitivity its pretty unlikely.

Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk

Been thinking about this today, and there are harmful agents in the timber, regardless of whether its wet or dry. The one that comes to mind is creosote. This is the stuff that builds up inside a chimney if you burn unseasoned but essentially dry wood. The issue is the heat generated by the fire. Under a normal dry wood combustion, the heat is sufficient to burn the creosote, but green or unseasoned does not burn as hot, so vaporises and is carried up the chimney where it cools and sticks to the flue. I set fire to my chimney one year after years of collecting my own firewood, then a mate got me a cubic meter of chep pallet 4 x 2's and the heat had the chimney burning like an afterbourner, but filled the entire house with smoke as well.

For the smoker though, seems the opinion at least in the US forums that green is fine - burns at lower temp, but then again the chips as i have also purchased for the camp ovens are always bone dry and bark free, regardless of the tree type - dunno, maybe its one of those cases of avoid to be sure?

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkNeeds some adjustments. Yes something under the lid would work well, or even having the lid sit to one side (will need to be careful of ash/coals falling in) Also need to reduce the amount of heat from the bottom. Less coals or a couple of logs under the base to prevent it burning.

Will try again on the next pizza run.

A Convection oven at 250 deg C, as I don't have a pizza oven or a woodfire oven....yet, I find the secret in a fresh cook with fresh dough is max heat shorter duration. Time varies between 12 to 15 mins (one pizza at a time as that oven is only good for a max 15" diameter pizza on shown tray on a rack that lifts it 3" up from the rotating plate) depending on how much cheese anf topping I used. I always use the 3 or four cheese pizza mix, and once she goes golden on the crust, you in business!

[jay see]

When you do get the wood fire pizza oven you'll be able to fire it up to around 300-325 and it's about 5 minutes in and out..

Sent from my SM-G986B using TapatalkThanks, but I can't take any credit for it. The previous owner set it up nicely was, one of the things that got me sold on this place. He had a 44-gallon drum cut in half and use this area for a spit. The top of the hood as a flute and a whirlybird on it. I made up the bit of stainless and fitted one fan, if I can get all the smoke out through the little extraction fan great, if not it's offset for that reason to fit a second fan.

What's Coles charging per kg? Wouldn't mind seeing if that's a difference between the local butcher and the supermarkets.

Also picked up some foil (thanks for the tip)l and charcoal.http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/06/15.jpg

I'll check tonight and see but I think it was $13/kg
Also bought some of their beef short ribs for $10/kg which are very obviously much poorer quality than what I have bought from my butcher for almost 3 times the price but I will give them a go.

It was actually $16/kg for the brisket and $13.50/kg for the ribs from Coles.

The friendly face and expert advice is worth well more than $1/kg in my opinion.
Looks very well seasoned without being over the top like most youtube/Facebook smoker experts we see lately, appreciate good seasoning but let the meat speak for itself to a point.

Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk

Very true about the local.

The seasoning was a fluke, I mixed the same amount of rock salt with the last of the black pepper added some smoked paprika and that's how it came out.

Three hours in and we're at the stall stage.
Temp has been very stable 120-140. It seems to work better in the old spit pit. I put up a board across the front to help with the smoke, another fan and I'll replace the board with a piece of stainless and it should force the smoke up. I've got the time so I'm going to wait out the stall for a few hours.http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/06/26.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/06/27.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/06/28.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/06/29.jpg

Don't have any pics but the brisket is resting in an esky and the ribs are still going. The smell is awesome and the meat looks and feels good so I will see if the savings are worth while or not.

Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk

I've read that some use an esky, what the reasoning behind that. Is it that the meat doesn't lose as much heat??

Sent from my CPH1979 using Tapatalk

[Winnie]

Yeah its good to let the meat rest after cooking but that is the only reason for the esky, eskies are just as good at keeping things hot as they are at keeping things cold.
I find it really hard to estimate what time a piece of meat will be finished so I usually put it on early and let it rest in an esky until ready for dinner.
I have had a bit of pork rest for 4 hours and still come out finger burning hot.

Wow flashback. That just took me back to early '80s sleepout with a school mate. He brought Toobs along as his contribution to the mandatory midnight snack. First time I ever tasted that weird tangy tube of crunchy air! Seems I'll never forget it. :)

Haha no pressure eh? Cut slits in the fat about 1cm apart. Lotsa salt and rub in with oil. Into a really hot oven to crackle up then drop temp to roast the meat. Exact temps from others more in the know than me or googs.

[Plasnart]

After it's done pull the crackle layer off and scrape off the soggy stuff underneath. Bit of a gut puncher if eaten. Serve crackle as a side.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkAre you doing it on a rotisserie or in a baking dish? I like the dish for more favour and a moist meat or the rotisserie for a more even crackle.

Get the oven hot 230-250 while this is happening have the roast out of the fridge and up to room temperature. The skin should have cuts in it already, rub the skin with oil and heaps of course sea salt don't be shy. Cook for about 40 minutes or until the skin blisters. I've sometimes taken off the skin at this point and reduce heat to around 180 for about an hour (depending on the size of your pork) and then crank it up to that 240 odd for about 5-10 minutes with the skin back in and while the meat resting.

You probably will get some rubber tasting bits and some really good crackle, but hey who doesn't like some nice moist pork..

If you haven't got the pork yet, you could try this.

Lol no. I cooked it Christmas morning. I just wasn’t paying attention more to the fact.
This new fancy oven we have, it’s got a pork roast cooking function. All we do is set the cooking temp per kg on the oven, put the temp probe in the meat and plug that into the oven and leave it. It cooks at a high temp for 20 minutes then auto resets the temp down to a cooking temp and turns off when the temp probe gets to 75c.
The meat came out great but I should have removed the crackling as you suggested.

OK so every Thursday night the local has Parmi night - 33 parmis and buy one get one for $5. So naturally working away, my workmate and I head along for a good feed at a great price.

So far I've partaken in the following Parmis:
- Satay Parmi: Great!
- Carbonara Parmi: Bonza!
- Lasagne Parmi: Beaut!
- Texan Parmi: Unreal!
- Traditional Parmi: Good of course!
- Mexican Parmi: Aye Carumba!
- Meatlovers Parmi: Ooh yeah!
- Bolognese Parmi: Magnifico!

And so what to choose tonight? Hmm.....I've seen this on the menu but nah, no way mate. Never. Nada. Not for a million bucks. Never in a million years.

85304

But a mate here gives me some sage advice. Why not try it? Why not give it a go? It might just be a taste sensation that you never thought possible!

And my mind goes back to my Dr Seuss book Green Eggs and Ham. Hmmm....could this really be a Green Eggs and Ham moment? Could this just be something to behold even though it looks like shit on paper?? OK!! Let's do this! I'm going out on a limb here Sam I Am! I'm ordering it!

So I nervously bury my face in a schooner while I think I can hear the cook evil laughing out in the kitchen. Hoo hoo harrr harrr!!!

This better be bloody good. Holy moley, what have I done??

Soon enough the waitress bursts out of the kitchen and heads our way! How's her face? Straight, no laughing. Good. An evil twinkle in the eye? Nope, good.
So what's this thing gonna look like?? I'm nervous!

And she puts it down in front:

85303

Ohhh Shiiiiiiit......Oooooohhhh Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttt!!!!

OK so maybe this really is gonna be so weird it's gonna be amazing!! Only one thing to do. Dig in.

A bit of chook, a bit of waffle, a bit of ice cream and some hundreds and thousands!! Whaaaaattt?? Well here goes?

85305

Ooofff! Not something I'd dream about! Let's have some more. Hmmm....better.....not great, but better..... Maybe this really is leading up to an unexpected mouth orgasm!

Making progress:

85300

Errrr...Chicken, waffle, ice cream and salad.......not recommended. Sorry my mouth is experiencing erectile dysfunction. No Big O happening here tonight haha!

85301

Finally done. But only because there's starving children in China! For the love of God!!

85302

Never, NEVER again!!! Haha farr out. Back to normal next Thursday for sure! Might just have the Texan Parmi with onion rings again OH BOY YUMMO!! :D

Simple pleasures for simple people. Tonight: Jaffle night :)

Recently sought and bought a round jaffle iron. Haven't had one for many years so thought time to cook round sandwich pies again!

Of course the first firing of this iron has to be with the all-time champion of cheap camp cooking.....the master of gut disaster.....the legend ingredient of first time campers and cheapskate gourmands worldwide.....Braised Steak and Onion (aka Human Dogfood)!

So here's tonight's lineup:

85344

I'm normally a wholemeal or multigrain type of guy, but hey, if we're going down to the level of Braised Steak and Onion jaffles then it's gotta be white bread.

First jaffle: Bit of cheese, bit of dogfood (I mean Braised Steak and Onion), a bit of cheese and close it up.

85345

On the heat for a bit, flip. Bit longer, flip. Bit longer again, flip. Bit longer OK should be good to crack it open. Looks good!

85346

Meaty, cheesy, processed canned food goodness going down! PS I was reliably informed this jaffle looked like a dog shit sandwich, but hey not everybody knows a good thing when they see it!! haha Jeez it tasted good!

85347

Next jaffle, let's try it with wraps. Never done them this way before, could be on a winner.

85341

Cood, flip, cook (spew out) flip, cook (smoke) flip, cook (stink) right let's get this off! Open it up......underwhelming.

85342

Don't worry about trying it with wraps, they taste ordinary, burn easily and don't seal the jaffle. But ate it anyway of course!

85343

Anyway now I'm sitting here with a gut full of Braised Steak and Onion Jaffles. Have had worse nights in my life!! :D

If it isn't braised steak and onion it isn't a jaffle and you aint camping! :D

Yes mate this is what my dad cooked us kids on camping trips too. Simple times, simple food, great memories!

[Plasnart]

OK so I snuck another couple of jaffles in yesterday. This time my brainwave was to use Tiger bread rolls instead of bread slices.

So I'm going these ingredients this time:

85365

Woops, nearly forgot this:

85366

Salami, spaghetti, bacon......

85367

Close it up, trim it up, cook it up....came out beaut!

85368

Ah no I forgot the cheese!! Sorry Peter Russell Clarke it won't happen again!

85369

2nd jaffle gets the cheese treatment.

85370

Yep not bloody bad at all. Jaffles - can't go wrong
