Beags:
California. San Fagkissco, I presume, judging by the fuel used by your Weber...... Howabout: However, if you are South African, please keep gloating to a minimum. And don't bring any of that p1ss you call beer. Any time you're in SA give me a shout and I'll walk ya through the brewery (slowly and with a pint pot in each hand). The brewer and owner is a good mate. |
How the country which invented Swan and Castlemaine XXXX (it's spelt that way because 'beer' is a bit challenging to some...:p) can insult SethEfrikan beer....
Amusingly, back before they let Nelson out when our yarp chums were viewed with deep suspicion by the tree-huggy UK lefties, down at RAF Ascension Island O's Mess we quaffed many a cold Lion (RIP) or Castle - went down well with some beast grilled on the mess barbi' whilst looking out for the 'green flash' as the sun went down. KWV Roodi' Red used to slip down a treat, as well. Always amused me what the Sunday Pinko might have thought of us all helping SA's apartheid economy back then! OK chaps, chapesses and chap...others (gas users). One thing I think we can all agree upon is that our colonial chums over the pond can make a damn fine idiot-proof barbi' which works even in the tropical climes of a UK Spring.... But as for their beer? It is not said for nothing that Budweiser 'beer' is like making love in a canoe - 'F*****g close to water'..... Although Sam Adams is OK-ish, I grant you. |

Although Sam Adams is OK-ish, I grant you. Sam Adams being OK-ish? Which Sam Adams? I believe they make 46 types of beer (some seasonal). Coca-cola's mantra is "universal availability, uniform quality". Hence I prefer Wobbly, Beck's or Heineken Export. Available the world over, always the same. The odd Boulevard goes down well, as does a Corona mit lime. Have you not heard the similie between (receiving!) BJs and beer? No such thing as bad, only some better than others. |
There used to be a beer brewed in Washington state that was sold in O Clubs on the West Coast and elsewhere called Olympia. It stated proudly on the can 'It's the Water'. This was a very accurate description!

What A Week End!!!!
Fired up the old girl TWICE, on my newly constructed sundeck. Standard fayre on saturday, but did a whole chicken for the first time today. Bloody outstanding.

Briquettes or Lumpwood?
Weber Newbie.
Bought my first Weber during the Easter weekend and have now used it twice. Big improvement over my £6.99 Lidl special that I have to replace each year! Have been using lumpwood because that’s what I have been used to but notice that Weber seem to recommend briquettes. Any thoughts from you Weber experts? |
Go for the briquettes - more consistent and less ash. They also burn hotter.
Actually, anything but gas will do - but briquettes are the easiest to deal with. Follow the Weber instructions precisely and you can't go wrong. |
STANDTO, ever tried 'Beer Butt Chicken' on the Weber? Take small can of beer (NOT DRAUGHTFLOW) drink half. Stick half full can up chicken's 'jacksie' and stand the chicken up in the barbie.....cook. Beer boils and steams the chicken in beery fumes....top notch....:ok: You can even get little stands to put the can in and chicken on....
|
I think that's how Budweiser came to be known as Buttwiper :hmm:
Ruddles County for me please or "Scruttocks Olde Bastarde" if on the apple juice :ok: I've found great success to be had from using one of these Giant Reversible Grill/ Griddle 46cm - LeCreuset despite it being French. Excellent for searing bits of cow and other sources of protein. |
Solid Rust Twotter
It's my enduring desire to visit your country. Never been, but have tasted the beer - some of ours sucks as well; whoever said Fosters was good beer needs to be shot, shambocked, or both.
Congrats on your team; the whole series was a joy to watch and the POMs just don't get it at the moment. For mine, the pinacle of test cricket is the competition between you guys and us, although India have rattled us recently. That Dale Steyn is a standout - so great, on either side, to see some long overdue venemous swing bowling. When I retire, I might just take you up on the offer. |
A variant of the 'Beerbutt' chicken is 'Winebutt'. Instead of drinking half the tinny you drink all of it then half refill it with white wine before inserting into the chicken.
Delicious. |
Stick half full can up chicken's 'jacksie'..... Looks like a nice day, so my trusty blackfellow will be in use later today! |

First time I did a turkey some of the pikeys were back for seconds before I had even had a mouthful. |
...did you use one of these ?
How to Deep Fry a Turkey - - FabulousFoods.com Fire protective clothing an optional extra. Sensible fuel source though :E |
Revolting as it sounds, deep fried turkey is actually very good, crispy on the outside and moist inside....cooks quickly too. The fire warning is a good one, the number of decks and houses that are torched out here at Thanksgiving is quite alarming! :uhoh:
|
BEagle: Follow the Weber instructions precisely and you can't go wrong.
Follow the instructions supplied with a consumer device; surely the most outrageous suggestion on pprune of all time. After you sensibly advised that any greenery at a barbecue was off limits to all real men as well. You'll find yourself buying a gas model next :}. |
Calling all gassers - 'bout time you had an input.
Unashamedly - J |
Calling all gassers - 'bout time you had an input. "I'm with Jindabyne - gas is ever so lovely....... Barbi' round the back at my place, isn't it. You'll be welcome to come to my back door....any time." |
Having just fallen of my chair in hysterics words now fail me.

It's a Gas
Clean & convenient. Wouldn't have bothered to start a 'real' fire for a couple of Jalapeno Burgers, not worth the hastle. But with the gas, it's just sooo easy.
