anyone know what goes in the sweetcorn salsa pictured? (apart from sweetcorn and red onion) ? it looks delicious
1 mango
1 red onion
1 red chilli
Squeeze of lime juice to taste
A pinch of sugar to taste if the mango isn't particularly sweet
Chopped fresh coriander if you have it
Although I don't see why you couldn't make a 'sweetcorn' version by substituting a can of sweetcorn plus a few chopped cherry tomatoes for the mango.
The egg is actually my old man's. That said, I do use it regularly and particularly for large joints such as that.
It is without a doubt a phenomenal piece of kit - though not cheap. I think dad's was about £1600ish.
If I had the cash spare and was looking for a serious bit of kit, I'd buy one. As it it's though, I can achieve similar on a £150 weber.
My dad looked at the other one you mentioned too but felt the build quality wasn't as good as the BGE.

Cheers, that's good to know. The other one I was looking at was the Primo, I like the concept of the oval allowing direct and indirect at the same time, but can also see benefits for normal indirect cooking.It is without a doubt a phenomenal piece of kit - though not cheap.

Works out much cheaper if I don't need the stand or tables - thinking it would be built into a breezeblock unit, with some leftover massive slate tiles for counters.
First time having a go at smoking on Friday...
Decided to get my hair cut mid morning and then had to rush to get it on (i'll do some detailed pics next time!)
2.2kg pork shoulder
dry rub (salt, pepper, brown sugar, mustard powder, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, chilli powder)
Smoked on the Weber over applewood chips (in the rain at this point)
Made up some homemade BBQ sauce (also used as a mop) (tomato ketchup, the ingredients used in the rub, white wine vinegar).
Didnt get many pictures.... too busy eating it
Badly stylised photo off my friends phone
Absolutely gorgeous...will 100% be doing it again
