Wild Venison Rack, Fire Kissed to Perfection 🔥🥩
This Spring Ridge wild harvested venison rack from @australianmeats deserved a proper cook, so I let the fire do its thing. Ran it indirect using @heatbeads coconut shell briquettes, with my @cld_fabrication offset plate keeping the heat right where I wanted it.
Seasoned up with @toadskitchencupboard Coff.E.Ander rub, because venison and coffee? Bloody unreal combo. Carved it up on my @theaustralianbrisketboard Steak Board with the @medeirosaustralia Artisan BBQ knife and fork. It sliced like butter.
Finished with a drizzle of @toadskitchencupboard Chimichurri and served alongside some prosciutto wrapped asparagus off the grill. This is the kind of cook that makes you wanna pour a whiskey and take your time with every bite.

The Kanga Sanga!
Kangaroo Sizzle Steak Sandwich
Kangaroo sizzle steaks from @kroo_aus, seared perfectly on my @cld_fabrication smash plate, over @heatbeads original briquettes.
Toasted Turkish roll, seeded mustard, leafy salad, cherry tomatoes, balsamic glaze, Gouda cheese & and the roo fillets.
Assembled on my @theaustralianbrisketboard Steak Board, and sliced with my @medeirosaustralia Kultura knife.
So tasty… didn’t even get it inside to sit and eat. Ate it while standing, watching the coals die down. Amazing.

Kangaroo Burger for Australia Day - The Ultimate Aussie Burger
Double @kroo_aus kangaroo patties, double cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato, beetroot, onion, and an egg, all on a toasted potato bun!
Served up with some thinly sliced crispy potato, dusted with @smokeyjoesrubs Salt&Vinegar chip dust, on my Aussie Hardwood Serving Board from @theaustralianbrisketboard.
Cooked in the kettle, using @heatbeads Original Briquettes. With my new smash plate from @cld_fabrication doing all the heavy lifting. This version provides an awesome amount of plate real estate, and allows great airflow through the grate portion. Seasoned up nicely, so even eggs are no drama for it!
How are you celebrating, or reflecting on Australia Day today?

Home Grown Jalapeño Poppers
From garden to grill, these jalapeño poppers are a bite of backyard perfection! 🌶️🔥
Sliced with the precision of my @medeirosaustralia 4” utility knife, stuffed with a creamy mix of cream cheese and cheddar, then wrapped in crispy prosciutto. 🤤 Smoked high and indirect on the Weber kettle, powered by a Kettle Kone and @heatbeads wood charcoal briquettes.
Big flavour, small jalapeños, and a whole lot of satisfaction. I love poppers, and these small ones were perfect one bite flavour bombs! 🍺🥓 #OlliesQ #CleaverCrew #CleaverCrewBBQ #heatbeads #dontriskit #meat #bbq #fueltheflavour #smokinitup #cookingwithfire #BBQGoals #WeberKettle #JalapeñoPoppers #BackyardBBQ
🔥 Rackin’ up flavour with this beauty! 🔥
Cooked up a lamb rack on the trusty Master Grill Kamado with @heatbeads lump charcoal. First, gave it a proper sear directly over the flames, then cruised it over indirect heat until it hit 130°F internal. After a cheeky rest in foil, it was slicing time. My @medeirosaustralia 10” Chimango knife made it a bloody breeze, cutting clean on the @theaustralianbrisketboard Steak Board.
The real stars, though? @leasahilton’s new SMASH Greek Lamb Rub, this stuff absolutely bangs, and her chimichurri drizzled on top, took those slices to the next bloody level.
Aussie BBQ, Greek vibes, and flavours that’ll knock your socks off. 💥🍖🇦🇺

Pork Spare Ribs and Crackle Strips on the Parrilla
@otway.pork Spare Ribs from @dc_meats
@heatbeads mini lump charcoal taking care of business
@smokeyq_ Rib Rub bringing the flavour to the party
Temp management handled by the parrilla, so fun cooking on this rig.
No prep crackle… removed from the meat, and straight on the parrilla… crunch, not bad.

Huge thank you to @crumble for sending me out two of their brand new cast iron products to cook with.
First up is the cast iron skillet. This comes in three sizes, this is the 26cm. It comes with a bonus spatula to use.
Next up is the cast iron bread oven, which I’m super keen for, as I’ve been thinking about baking bread in the BBQs for a while now. It comes with a couple of silicone covers for the handles, so you don’t burn your hands.
Check out their full range in their website… they’re actually having a big sale at the moment.

Massaman Curry
Why get takeaway, when you can easily cook better food yourself at home! Not only does it taste better, but also saves all that takeaway packaging and rubbish.
I absolutely love a beef massaman curry. It’s so easy to make, and tastes amazing.
Here’s how I did it:
Ingredients:
2 kg beef suitable for slow-cooking, cut into large cubes (I used gravy beef but chuck steak works well too)
5 heaped tbsp massaman curry paste
2 x 410 ml coconut milk
2 cups beef stock
10 potatoes (any variety), cut into medium chunks
3 medium-sized onions, sliced into thick wedges
Three carrots, peeled and cut in thirds
Thai Basil
Thinly sliced red chilli
Crushed peanuts, to serve
1. Light you smoker. I used my @zgrills_oz 700E-XL. Set the grill temperature to 325 degrees F, and allow to preheat, lid closed, for 10 – 15 minutes.
2. In a large pan, (I used the @hexclad BBQ Pan) brown the beef over a medium heat, on all sides. Set aside in a large bowl.
3. In a small bowl, combine the massaman curry paste, coconut milk and beef stock to form a sauce.
4. Heat a large oven-safe pot, (I used my @hexclad_aus Hybrid Saute Pot) over medium-heat. When hot, add the beef, potatoes, onions & carrots.
5. Pour the sauce all over the top. Cook for around 4hrs. The beef should come apart easily using a fork. If it is still firm, leave it cooking, checking on it every 30mins.
6. Serve topped with thai basil, sliced chilli, and crushed peanuts.
🥩 Meat: Gravy Beef from @DC_Meats
♨️ BBQ: @weberbbqausnz kettle & @zgrillsoz 700E-XL
