Pineapple/chili glazed chicken wings
Dinner doesn’t always need to be super fancy and sometimes you just can’t beat a big ol’ bowl of chicken wings. At the same time it would be rude not to do those wings justice. So with this homemade pineapple, chili & ginger glaze you will certainly be doing your wings proud. Oh and no…
BBQ Easy Carve Lamb Leg

Crispy pork belly, sweet potato & cider
Pork belly is one of those things that people either love or hate. I am on the LOVE side of it, that is as long as it’s done nice. This crispy skin pork belly is definitely one to impress. To cook the belly properly firstly you need a piece of meat that is balanced with…
Sous Vide & why it’s one of my fav kitchen appliances!
Sous Vide – Why I’m converted! At first, I was honestly a bit skeptical. I have (up to now) been more of an old school touchy-feely kind of guy where cooking meat is concerned. I did a catering gig back in January and wanted to put some of the profits towards helping me grow more…
