Barbecue thread (all welcome)

Hard lockdown here in NZ, stuck at home and finished polishing the Lav so it’s bbq time…

I know there’s a few bbq and grill connoisseurs on here, so feel free to chime in and swap a few recipes 😋

Tonight it’s pork fillet (Jamie Oliver style) and Rolling Stones of course 😉
I would have done a nice Goats Head Soup myself 😛
 
bbqing your food isn't good for you, but I suppose being in lockdown isn't either!
So cremated, freshly made minted lamb burgers and The Who - I hope I die before I get old - will no doubt cheer everyone up! :)
 
Last weekend I tried a new one.

Beef ribs, boiled in milk, let it cool in the milk, refidgerated for 24 hours. Then out of the milk, a bbq rub massaged in and onto a hot grill...... tender as, and accompanied by a nice Cab Sav, mmmmm.
 
I've heard about milk as a meat tenderiser but never tried it myself. I think the calcium in milk does something to break down the protein fibres in the meat. I could be wrong. Food chemistry is not my area of expertise. Come to think of it, I don't reckon I know enough about anything to claim "expertise" in any subject.

Did you drink the milk afterwards? Beef milkshake, mmmm ...

Blurk ............ no way. It goes all funny and pink too. Besides I reckon the Cab Sav would curdle the milk.
 
Today’s pork ribs, on my sons hipster bbq.

Mmmm my favourite. Did you keep them in foil the whole time or get some smoke on it first?
How’s your temperature? I’m still experimenting a bit, usually around 100-150c but I see you’re a bit lower?

180, no foil, then half hour in foil at the end as it’s cooling.

Tried a new chilli sauce with it. I’m still paying for it. My arse is on fire .....
The sauces name says it all “Shit the bed”
