Gonna attempt a Pork loin roast with roast veggies tomorrow.

I thought I`d hit the sauce to night and decided to have a pie, mashed spuds with home grown p/kin and beans for to nights dinner. As I was shaking the bottle, I noticed it was an orange looking colour and realised it was the Mango Chilli sauce that I made a couple of months ago. Turned out quite good and I altered the recipe, so I had a thicker sauce. I had an abundance of Chocolate Habanero Chillis to use at the time and I just gave away a shopping bag of them to day, that I had stashed in the freezer.
How good does this look! Bloody great idea, I'd love to give it a crack.

Just checked that link MB mate. Weber has come up with a cheap shortcut to smoking without the deep and precise engineering design skills of @PeeBee and his magical Gwendolin!Quote:

Thanks for the accolades gents. I was reading the lift out magazine in 'The Australian' a couple of weeks ago and there was a gas heated table top pizza oven being marketed as 'the ultimate' for $900 +. Its called the Roccbox. It only does pizza and can be used with wood, however is very slow. Its nicely painted, bigish and has none of the design attributes of the Gwendolyn, andcan't cook any of the range of food my oven can. I reckon it might struggle at that price. Its made in the USA, so must be the best!!! Here is the website, all flash and shiney.

Had a quick look at the Weber link, smoking in 20 - 30 minutes - Gwendolyn is cranking in 4-5! Mind you, the smoker boxes look a lot sexier than the dinner plate dish, and I wonder whether the chips actually flame up or not inside the box as its going to take a lot of energy to get them to start decaying if the bed depth is full height of the box. Anyway, it must work or they would not offer it - be intersting to see how long the smoke effect lasts - probably longer than the Gwendolyn which is about 45 minutes.
Yeah mate, having to wait 20-30 minutes for smoke to start is a huge waste of gas too.
As far as I’ve ever learnt and done the hot smoking process is all over within the first say 15 minutes in smaller ovens when the meat is raw.
Once the cut has started sealing up no more smoke can really get inside and just becomes somewhat wasteful again thereafter.
Soaking chips in water or say apple juice for pork overnight will slow them down if needed but I don’t bother anymore and just let them char up immediately dry out of the box.
Keep in mind most of the Yanky Youtube stuff out there (especially Texans) are smoking gigantic briskets and the like and need longer timelines methods etc...

I tried the water soaked chips and it was a total disaster. The heat drove the water out as steam and it saturated the pizza bases and also dropped the temp inside the oven by about 50 degC. I have not tried soaked chips with the camp oven setup though. Maybe this is what they use for big smoking tasks however the chips are going to start dehydrating as soon as the heat is applied and the RH drops - simple equilibrium action, so at a loss as the the 'mechanics' of how wet chips really add flavour, unless the discharged steam is a process used to start cooking the outer without developing a hard crust - or a bit of magic going on?
Yep, dry chips are the go for our Aussie camping needs [emoji106][emoji106]

Thinking about adding it to dinner later hoping someone out there might know if its a safe one?

Can someone try this one I saw on tv today,
beetroot whole in silver foil drizzled in honey.
Sounds ok to me
Don`t know if this is in the right thread, but the idea should be, it was half baked and probably been done before. I was getting thirsty one fine warm day, thought I`d make a rum and cola spider. I gotten a 500 mL handled beer glass, a shot of rum, more like two on some one elses gauge, a good scoop of ice cream and the rest of the glass was filled up with cola. Wasn`t half bad and the next one was made with Irish Cream. Mind you, the gf was wondering why I looked a bit silly, when she gotten home from work.
Mrs MB and our girls took off at sparrows fart this morning on a Tiger for a Canberra wedding.
Who says Dad can’t still do an 11hr work day out and about and not enjoy a 6hr slow Yanky home cookup found at Coles for $12.50, bargain!

It aint got the smokeyness of Phil’s oven or the old Hark but amazingly really good folks.
Even better repurposing an old Pizza box and the dishes are done blokes, bachelor style [emoji106]

I believe I have unlocked the true secret to perfectly delicious tender meat every time without fail.
We bought an electric pressure cooker from Harvey Norman for $150 a few months ago and we have been using it all the time and the meat is insane.
You don't get a smoky flavour or a nice crust on the meat as everything has to be cooked in liquid but you can get some pretty intense flavours into meat.
We've done pot roasts, corned beef, peri peri chicken fillets, beef cheeks, short ribs, pea and ham soup and the list just goes on and on and everything turns out perfect! Game changer!

@Winnie it would cut your cooking time in half I think
Yeah its less than a quarter of the time of a slow cooker and gets way better results.Quote:

What pressure cooker did you buy Winnie? Have long wanted one but don't really know much about them. Last week I was in Paynesville and saw one in the opp shop. Thought about it but didn't buy. My Mrs story of spraying the ceiling with food years ago has held me back but it's something I'd go for if it's a good one.Quote:

The temperature is controlled electronically so no worries about explosions lol.
There is a huge following in the states for them and over there they call them an instant pot so if you are looking up recipes just search for instant pot recipes.
