I'm still fasting but about to engage in some keto cooking. I'll post some pics if it doesn't all come out looking like burnt shit.
I take it keto is not likely to be as tasty as 'kettle' cooking
I thought Keto was predominately meat? So all Kettle if you have one

Very much so. Keto is simply high fat, protein and low carbs. So plenty of meaty goodness and green leafy vegetables.

Do you own a Kettle or Egg etc? If not, go buy one and you will not regret it! I had a fairly new Weber gas BBQ and as soon as I got the Kettle, I sold my gas bbq as knew I wouldn't use it again

I'm looking at grabbing a Webber Kettle, can't fit much more on the balcony.

If budget allows, please also buy the Rotisserie attachment! You will regret nothing!!!

Nothing like cooking a joint of meat in it's own juices. And longer cooking times means more time on the deck with beer in hand trying to look busy

anyone got thoughts on fruit trees?
Get mixed results where I am.
Plums, lemons, grapefruit, lime, feijoas, blue berry all growing like crazy (fruiting too) but peach tree not so good.
Lots of fruit on it, but just doesnt ripen and grown, ends up rotting on tree and falling off.

@taniwharugby cut it down, dry it out and use that shit for smoking

On New World's website they have "Beef Wing Rib Roast" for $24.99/kg. Is that rib eye, sirloin, or something else (like chuck rib roll)?

Looks like it is a sirloin roast with bone in
I personally prefer scotch fillet roast. Generally has more fat marbling which gives it more flavour and moisture

Yup, Sirloin.
Last three weekends in a row, I have done a four bone in Rib-eye (Scotch) smoked for 3 hours until 120f and rested for a few hours until ready to eat and then sear and serve! Every time it has been with a different group of people and every time they say it is the best steak they have ever had.

Reverse sear is the best 👌

@taniwharugby said in Recipes, home grown goodness, BBQing and food stuff:
@canefan I had never heard of reverse until a couple of months back, and have seen it mentioned alot lately so just googled it to find out how to do it...will likely give it a whirl on the weekend.
You get a more consistent cook from the surface all the way through. My beef roast came out beautiful and pink. Check out https://amazingribs.com/ Meat Goldwyn is the man. Even better, buy his book and it can take pride of place at home

@Hooroo said in Recipes, home grown goodness, BBQing and food stuff:
Just to add to @canefan remarks, which I completely agree with, make sure you buy a meat thermometer as unless you are highly skilled at the touch test, you will likely over cook it
Absolutely. Even better buy a dual probe model that measures the ambient temperature in the bbq as well, because the ones that come in the bbq are usually not accurate. I use a maverick 2 probe and a thermopro TP20.
Not expensive but it will take your bbq to the next level.
I love to serve the beef with some chimichurri sauce. Delish
