    @canefan Cheers mate, I didn't think of smoker box, but love a smokey taste. I will be trying your suggestions at some stage as I said, pretty keen to really start using it more.

    My kids love yakitori style chicken wings too. Joint them, sprinkle all over with salt, marinate in a mixture of light soy, sake, mirin, white pepper and golden syrup. Just grill them and they'll be delicious

    Further proof that all you need to elevate a quick weeknight dinner is the right condiment.

    Hmm, might be worth a try.

    Lee Kum Kee?

    XO Sauce - Lee Kum Kee

    XO Sauce  - Lee Kum Kee

    Lee Kum Kee XO Sauce is an all purpose gourmet condiment made from the finest ingredients such as dried scallop, dried shrimp, red chill pepper and spices. It is a delicious appetizer by itself, as well as an excellent addition to all dishes, Chinese dim sum, noodles, porridge and Japanese sushi....

    Otherwise any Chinese or Asian store will have it

    So... competitive BBQ-ing... that's a thing?
    They had one of their events in the reserve across the road from where I'm currently staying... and I happen to be an acquaintance of one of the competitors/organisers - so shuffled over to have a look, to be polite.
    Exactly as one would expect... I saw multiple mullets, I heard NO music other than Metallica, and I ate some decent meat, but zero vegetables.

    What a strange sub-culture... but I'm looking forward to the Hollywood-ization of it... Fast/Furious style.
    Ideas for movie names of a BBQ-themed movie franchise?

    I bought a small tomahawk steak to bring home and fuck-up... and surprisingly, somehow didn't... cooking it solely by "feel"/instinct - no thermometer or such - I didn't fuck up. Too much.
    ("I didn't fuck up too much" - that's going up on the whiteboard, and being ordered as a motivational poster)
    And... for some reason... I felt the urge to download and watch WWE Summerslam to go with it, so... there's that happening just now.

    You never go hungry at a BBQ event. Unless you are vegetarian....

    I'd love to share my recipe for the tastiest hamburger with cheddar cheese, perfect for your next BBQ event!

    Start by taking the patty and seasoning it generously with salt, pepper, and a touch of garlic powder. Heat a skillet or grill on medium-high and cook the patty for about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Meanwhile, toast the bun with a bit of butter until golden brown. Once the patty is cooked to your liking, place a thick slice of sharp cheddar cheese on top and cover for a minute to let it melt. Add the patty to the bun, and top with fresh lettuce, a slice of ripe tomato, and a dollop of mayo mixed with a hint of mustard. The combination is divine!

    Fucking hell mate. Bit of a warning about not cutting myself with the sharp cheese might have been useful.

    I like to make home made burger sauce when I cook burgers. Mayo, tomato sauce, Dijon mustard, capers, salt and pepper. Yum

    I do a very similar burger sauce the only differences being, swap the Dijon for Hot English mustard and I add a splash or three of a hot sauce or more if I'm only using Tabasco.

    Sometimes I'll also add pickled jalapenos but that makes it a little chunkier so I tend to put the jalapenos directly on the burger.

    @dogmeat I like to go half and half, beef and pork mince.

    sriracha + mayo = awesome too (for an easier version)
