Barbecue!!!

Here's the taster....
YouTube - The BBQ Song

I cook anything on my gas barby.
It has some hot plate surfaces too. My speciality is shrimp(prawns) tiger prawns are best and kebabs. (In the US you call them kabobs). I once fitted out a fish and chip shop in Sheerness run by a very friendly Turk. I told him we English call them KebAbs. In the US, they call them KabObs. I asked him which was right. He laughed and said: "America".
So I replied:"That makes us the idiots then."

I do a mean fahita on the barby but I char the chicken first before marinading it ina wok.
Done some great rainbow trout too just brushed in olive oil with salad onions in the cavities. I get my own fish.

We just switched from charcoal to gas this year. I love how clean it is and don't really notice a difference in taste. We do lots of chicken, sausage and ribs. I leave the smoked brisket to the experts...haven't really mastered that yet.

Found a company called Canyon Foods you might want to check out. They do a rasberry chipotle BBQ sauce that you can mail order. HEB carries them too.

I always wondered about the Ka-Bob vs Bab

Rasberry chipotle sounds interesting. I'm a real fan of lamb on the barbecue. This marinade is really tasty:

I like to cook prawns, butterflied leg of lamb, wallaby patties, white bait patties, mutton bird.

Also my h/m patties, kebabs, snags, lamb or pork chops, marinaded beef steaks, microphones ( marinaded chicken drumsticks) or marinaded chicken wings, vegetable patties and veggie parcels, stir fries, baked spuds, pirate eye eggs. Fish wrapped in foil or newspaper with plenty of onions, fresh herbs and lemons. Asparagus done with OO and lemon juice with a little salt and balck pepper. (not all at the same time of course)

Almost forgot... and for really fussy kids who won't try anything new, toasted vegemite and cheese sarnies!

I almost forgot what barbecues were like, I think in the whole of this year I managed a paltry three
Last year was just as bad, the UK summers have gone, and guess what it's doing right now...the usual.....raining!

What does wallaby taste like Shammrock? I wonder if we can get it in the states?

Green Kitchen, you have such a variety that I think you should try Buffalo, Alligator, Snake, Armadillo,boar and spice up that dove too!

Heck, your choice is greater than most nations!

johntaylor

Yeah chevron, the more variety the better, rattlesnake too!

Well, the only ones I have yet to try from my list above are alligator and armadillo.
The armadillo is usually picked up as 'roadkill'. Now THERE'S down home country cookin' for ya!

Rattlesnake pasta looks interesting. Only tried rattler as chilli before. The pasta dish is a sort of melding of Eytallion and cowboy.

Wallaby is gamey but not as gamey as kangaroo. Mince is quite coarse but with bacon pieces to add a little fat it is lovely in burgers, also put in grated onion, grated carrot, garlic, fresh herbs etc.

My parents would soak a carcass in salted water prior to baking to take out the gamey flavour. It also has a tendency to dry out so needs plenty of basting, but the gravy is sooo tasty.
