Looks like it will be a belter today, anyone worshipping the gods of fire today?

I'm doing some hot and fast today, using up some stuff from the freezer. Got some belly pork slices, chicken livers, pork fillet and a few other bits and bobs. Going to fire up the gasser for that.

Also making a BBQ pie for British Pie Week, hickory smoked some chicken yesterday, today that's going in a pie and getting cooked on the Kettle.

Picked up a couple of small free range chickens, which will be spit roasted, probably. We also had today reserved for the "pre-season" (if there is a season ) BBQ shed (large tool store NOT to be confused with a proper shed like Toby's) clean-up and arranging all the goodies I've bought since last year. All essentials of course

Steve I've made a note to get the motor specs for you.....

While in Morrisons on Friday, as well as the cod roe, I bought a whole turkey breast for 8 quid. Not going to do anything fancy with it, I thought put it on smoke for a couple of hours, then turn the temp up to finish it off.

was sorely tempted, but have plans for a whole week of cooking, just hope the weather holds out.

Lovely and sunny here too. Took a gamble and preordered a few racks of babybacks and I'm also cooking a few chicken thighs for the first time. Plus a first attempt at home made slaw.
I will be firing the WSM up at around 10:30 and plating at 2pm.

Change of plan. Meat on at 12pm So the guest will just have to savour the smell and wait. Did a small test run of slaw and it lovely! Will check chicken thighs in a couple of hours.

my babybacks are goin on at 1for a 4-5hr cook
just gota shout neighboughs to get washing in well they will anyways when i fire uds up

We've been lucky the last few days and had great bbq weather, not that i let the weather stop me.
Friday night did some fat ribs and 2 knuckles, 5 hours smoked and 1 hour sizzle.
Last night I did BBQ bucket mussels and some plank trout.
Looking forward to a great BBQ summer.
Cheers

Here's a couple of pics pre-eat/destroy! They were goooooood.

Glazed and ready to come off


Plated with the chicken (which was fantastic! Used Butt Rub and will definitely be cooking these again).
