Beef skirt

It's a relatively new cut for me but must say I love it - anybody else? 10 mins each side on the bbq. Soft, flavoursome cut. Brilliant for cutting up and using in fajitas. Also had if served with rice or in a stir fry....just doesn't seem v popular at the butcher where I get it

Meat - butcher or supermarket

Thoughts guys?

I've been using the butcher a lot but when I'm cooking for a few friends, I'm finding I'm spending a lot there....

For instance, I bought a big bit of prok shoulder. Went to the supermarket and saw a similar cut for a lot less - maybe 1/2 or so of the butcher.

I'm guessing if it's ...

Re: Can you store ribs?

Thanks to time you for the ikea tip - managed 3 racks of ribs with plenty room for another couple of racks if I wanted.

Re: Pellet smoker fuel

Thanks for the replies folks.

Still convincing the missus that she wants to chip in for one, for my birthday but getting there.

Seems like gmg are the way. Also sounds like a good blend will sort me out and no need for having several bags to mix n mash flavours?

Out of interest, is it worth ...

Pellet smoker fuel

Hi again folks.

Thanks for all the advice so far.

I'm 90% sure I'm going to take the plunge with a daniel boone gmg.

What do people advise for fuel sources?

Looking on their website, they seem to have blends and separate wood types. Is it the same as whiskey? I've read the chart posted on this ...

Re: Can you store ribs?

Thanks for the replies.

I will need to visit ikea shortly! 5 quid isnt bad at all.

As for the ribs, i will give it a bash. My thought was to take them off and store before covering in sauce - so good that others are of the same thinking!!!!

Guess ill be ok as long as i dont tin foil the meat when ...

Hi...

This is maybe a stupid question but im using my gas grill to slow cook ribs.

Ive been following the amazing ribs techniques and absolutely love them.

My question is can you cook them the day before whilst keeping the crust crusty etc? I wondered if they would sweat/soften.

As a ...

Re: Advice required

Hi and thank for the reply. I guess the pizza thing you cook quickly and don't need to run for v long.

Are there multiple places to buy gm products?

Saw their own website but looks like a horrendous 1 dollar to 1 pound conversion....

Checked ebay but not much there.

Out of interest, any good ...

otherwise you could look online at companies like Hobbs House Bakery, but they aren't cheap



Got to agree. Aldi 75p-ish for 4. Good value. As a side, the expiry dates are fantastic on them

Hi folks,

A couple of years back, I bought an outback 4 burner gas grill. I really like it for the likes of sausages/burgers etc and have got used to it and can cook a mean sausage

I've tried a bit of smoking with it which ...
