Hi to all,

Having just purchased our Bedourie oven,we were quite anxious to give it  a real tryout with a roast first up.Having washed and seasoned the oven,we found and old frypan base (Dereks idea) to place the cooker in.In went a medium chicken,cut up spuds,pumpkin and carrot and out came a fabulous roast meal.Is this begginers luck? Method,brush chicken and veg with olive oil all over,put trivot in bottom of oven,then place all in.Put 15 heat beads on top 9 on bottom,cook for 2 -1/2 hours.
The oven is a 10".Next big cookup is a leg of lamb with veg,has anyone else done a small leg of lamb in the oven using heat-beads,if so how many beads on top and bottom,and how long for cooking.cheers Smiley Smiley

Hi

I have never used a ten inch Bedourie so unable to answer you.  I would buy an oven thermometer, pop it in the oven and experiment.  180 degrees is a good temp for roasting.  I have done heaps of roasts in my large Bedourie and they always turn out well.

I keep popping this photo up but they are only around five bucks and worth their weight in gold.

Good idea about the thermometer Derek,will look at getting one
I cooked a 1.5kg leg of lamb in my 10" bedourie using the same
amount of heat beads as i used for roasting a chicken 15top-9 bot
Preparation was the same, season the leg by brushing over with
olive oil,done the spuds and pumpkin the same.The lamb ect was
cooked to perfection in 2hrs-20mins.When i carved up the meat,
it just fell off the bone.I'm driving the neibours mad with all the
tantalizing smells coming out of my backyard.One has given me the
nick-name of camp oven clarry.There he goes down the back with his
oven under his arm......trouble is,when it starts cooking,they all hang
over the fence like a pack of starving vultures.....cheers Grin

Thanks Derek,
                    Well i was just studying your pic holding those muffins
                    Mmmmmm,i recon i could turn out a batch that looks
                    some thing like that.Not sure about the taste,but they
                    would look as good as yours,might have to go to the
                    chemist and get a bottle of antacid medication,just in-case of
                     indigestion Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Cry
