Have always had a thing about marinated drum sticks and chicken wings.  For what they are they are usually priced right and when on special are even better.

For the marinade i used soy sauce, olive oil, honey, crushed ginger and crushed garlic.  Marinade for an hour and a half.  Cook for an hour and serve with a salad.

Can't beat that.

Will this open

HasselBack Chicken

Followed the recipe from here - http://www.aussiecampovenforum.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1455526218

Two chicken breast
50 grams spinach
50 grams feta cheese
Grated cheddar
Paprika

Wilt the spinach in a pan and add the crumbled feta.  Keep pan on the heat until feta and spinach combine.  Allow to cool.

Cut slits in the chicken breast and fill with the feta and spinach.  Sprinkle with grated cheddar and the sprinkle with paprika.

Cooked it for 40 minutes in the Weber Q in Grandmas old pie dish.

This dish is absolutely delicious.  Maggie's comment was, "You have excelled tonight".  It was served with a salad and potato salad.

In the last photo you can see how the feta and spinach is cooked into the chicken.

My last one so need to go shopping 

Would be hard to beat the taste of it but I reckon diced bacon on top instead of paprika would be quite good as well.

Looks tasty!

Derek what is the thing under your trivet sitting on top of the grill plate ??

Road tested the new webber breakfast plate tonight

You feeling a bit off crook Rolly??

The drum sticks are in the Weber.  They have been skinned and are not marinated.  Just a spray of soya oil and a sprinkle of smoked paprika.

Here's hoping they are edible

Steamed veggies and no gravy 

They look great. Nice, easy seasoning too.

I'm not really a pizza fan either Derek, but that does look and sound extremely tasty. I'm quite partial to a bit of seafood and all of the other ingredients combined.
Stubby.

I can almost taste that..
That's a keeper recipe

If you ask I have found most parks will let you use Heat Beads.  Here is an article I wrote for Heat Beads - http://www.heatbeads.com.au/bbq-culture/camp-oven-cooking-without-a-camp-fire/

Might have to resort to this.. Just found a sign at this park specifically forbidding Ozpigs and Heatbeads.  Open fires also of course.

Pea and ham is a winter soup so you will have to wait till it gets cold.

A little four bone pork loin roast for dinner on the BabyQ. Very nice here in the bush.

PORK, APPLE & MUSHROOM BURGERS

If you love pork and apple as well as mushrooms as much as I do then here is a great dinner that can be cooked up on the Weber Q while out and about.  The recipe concept for the pork patties was originally taken from the Aldi Website.  http://aldi.com.au

Anyway, I was walking through Woolies today and saw these beautiful big brown portobello mushrooms.  I stopped and looked and thought, I can't walk away but what can I cook with them.  Ideas started running through my head and I came up with the idea of hamburgers using mushrooms instead of bread rolls because they did looked like big hamburger rolls.

Not sure if I have seen it done before but possible.

The original recipe calls for Aldi pork mince however I find it too fatty so bought some pork leg steaks and minced them myself.  I also use Pink Lady Apples as I find the flavour very nice.  Here it is.

Ingredients
400 grams pork mince
Couple of spring onions chopped fine
Salt & Pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaf
Crispy Pink Lady grated apple
4 large mushrooms
Salad items

Method
Combine the pork, apple, onions, sage and salt and pepper then form into four large patties and cook on barbecue
Remove the stems from the mushrooms and grill until soft.
Make up the burgers with a mushroom on the bottom then a pork pattie then layer on the salad.  I used baby cos lettuce, tomato and beetroot but you can do whatever you want including sauce.  Pop another mushy on top and you have a great burger.  Now you will need to eat it with a knife and fork.

Now I have two pork and apply meat patties left over for lunch tomorrow.

Next time I might look at poaching the mushrooms in apple juice or even apple cider.   

Nice combination.
Love mushrooms

Brunch a little different.

I have seen these taco shell bowls on TV adverts and often thought there will be lots of uses for them so bought some.

Lined with two slices of short cut bacon, two eggs inside and a sprinkle of grated cheddar.



Into the Weber and cook until done.



Brunch is cooked



They are actually not far off the size of a meat pie so good for a meal.



Next time I might beat the eggs with some cream, use prosciutto instead of bacon and a sprinkle of panko crumbs over the cheese.

Then again the ideas are endless. Could fill with savoury mince and top with mashed potato. 

They make a mini one as well that will take one egg.  Think I may have Christmas breakfast solved 

Of course like everything I cook in the Weber, would go just as well in a camp oven. 

Storm brewing here or I would have fired up the Heat Beads for these in the camp oven.

Been a while since I last bought a whole chook considering Woolies sell a cooked one for about seven bucks.

Today however felt like a roast dinner so bough one and butterflied it.  Cooked with pumpkin and purple skin sweet potato.  Later served up with carrots and broccoli.

Yummmmmm!

Nice piece of baked corned beef tonight for dinner.

I smothered the top with black pepper and dill.  Very nice flavour

I am seeing more and more, good dishes being ruined by the addition of huge amounts of sauces, herbs and spices.  Well in accordance with my taste buds anyway.

The simplicity of crispy skin salmon cooked on a hot plate with just a knob of butter to prevent sticking to me is heaven

I think that is about the third time I have used it and the second time was last week doing bacon and eggs.  I have real difficulty frying eggs on the grill. 

By the way, when people talk about crispy skin salmon it is actually the fish scales that crisp up and become crunchy and not the skin.  They never scale salmon.  Neither of us actually eat it but it looks good. 

I do like to eat poultry whether it be duck, turkey or chicken. Chicken is very inexpensive and lend itself to a variety of ways to be cooked.

I cooked up a few drumsticks tonight however with an Asian twist.

First off I ran a sharp nice around the leg bone to separate the skin from the knuckle and then sliced into the thickest part of the meat down to the bone.

I then mixed a marinade of some Kecap Manis, which is a sweet soy sauce, minced garlic and sesame seeds.  Brushed it on the drum sticks and allowed them to sit for half an hour.

Cooked in the Q at around 200 degrees for 50 minutes brushing again with the marinade every ten minutes.

Served up with some steamed potato, cauliflower and pumpkin and they were superb with enough left over for tomorrow
