Re: Sous Vide Fillet With Chimney Fire Action

I can just see myself on Jeremy Kyle in a few years. "I don't know what happened Jerry it started with a smoker. Nothing serious first the charcoal became important then I was buying wireless thermometers... had to get a thermopen... then a stoker made sense. The funny part Jerry was by this point I ...

Re: Cracking Pizza Stone!

I've used a bog standard pizza stone on the very bottom without problems. If anything it gets too hot on the bottom with the base crisping up before the top is done (I'd guess thats where the proper thing helps). I think if I manage to find the right temp and not push it too hard it's be ok. I put ...

Re: BBC Marinade Guide

Indeed, life is terminal. So might as well never suffer rubbish food.

I liked the sound of the marinade and hadn't realised that the pineapple would do a different job to lemon. Also never knew why lemon could harden up meat and make it stringy (though I have experienced that first hand on a ...

Re: Direct Grilling on a Pro Q Frontier

It's probably not advised but hypothetically you could put the base on top of the stackers. Though it's not designed to do that and a knock might send it (and hot coals) tumbling... but you hypothetically could if you really didn't like the height.

The normal way is fine but it really is pretty low ...

Re: Temperature Probes for ProQ Frontier

The pit probe I think you could do that, but on mine the food probe is L shaped so pretty much no hope of getting it through the eyelet.

What I do is wrap the cable round the handle of the top (just so they stay in the right place) and drop them through the top vent. When I need to take the lid off ...

Re: My name is Andrew and I'm a smokeaholic.

Hello nice to see some fish on a grill

Was sea bass that I got on offer. I think I cooked for twice as long as I should have but still was possibly best cooked fish I've ever had. It was just very easy.

Those pictures look amazing! Helps that the food looks fantastic too.

Cheers each time I ...

My name is Andrew and I'm a smokeaholic.

Hi everyone,

Basically after a few youtube videos of bbq one thing lead to another and spending £200+ on a bbq rather than £20 seemed a good idea. So I'm now the proud (and satisfied) owner of a ProQ Frontier.

I've had a go at low and slow (pork loin roast, tesco delivery man changed my pork ...
