Oh man it was good.
Has seconds which is unusual for me. Those roasters were in the whole process from raw. Normally I add them halfway after microwaving them half cooked. This time they sat for the full hour soaking up the juices from the shoulder and I removed the meat and put them in the pan on the coals for literally a few minutes a side to brown. Remember there are 3 sides so a bit of skillful turning without it sticking to the pan or burning. The meat was sensational. I had inserted thinly sliced garlic into the meat. I cant handle those chunky garlic cloves. There was a literal spot of pink on the bone but the rest was done to perfection. Juicy and tender. Soaking up the gravy my wife made from the juices. This was a R70 piece of meat and it filled us all up with absolutely nothing left over.![]()

Sards en sy fancy braais. Struisbaai braai ons teen die see op die klippe. Beste braai ooit.
Die fancy webers en groen kanonne en whatever kan nooit naby n braai op die grond met klippe kom nie

I braaied a rib-eye for the first time two weeks ago. My brother warned me about taking it off too early, so I bit on my teeth and kept it on the fire for nearly 50 minutes. Came out perfectly medium rare. Best steak I had in years.Chilli wrote: Thu Aug 06, 2020 6:37 am I have a 1.2kg ribeye steak that has been in my fridge for 10 days........................it is going to meet the coals tomorrow night.
ouboet. That oven of mine came from an idea. Its gone full circle into a take away. We finally signed the lease today and Monday it all starts. The holdup was the conditions of the lease we weren't happy with so it had to go to the legal department and then to utilities for approval. A 3 week rondvokkery. I eventually got the landlords number and phoned hum and sorted everything 9ut with hum and my wife paid over the deposit and signed and mailed the lease. Now my work starts. But that all started because I wanted to improve on what I was getting.

Ons het lekker spots om te braai.
So it seems like in Port Elizabeth they are omly now experimenting with "flavoured" boerewors.
I had a "German Thyme" wors yesterday. Not bad but not as good as one of the originals like Grabouw, or anyone that has corriander and clove.
Nice pork rashers though.

...microwaving braai meat though. Nee fok.
Make fire. While there are stil lots of flames, brush steak with liquid smoke.
Microwave steak for 2 minutes for medium rare. Remove from microwave and sear in the flames on both sides.
Allow to rest while you microwave Spur mushroom sauce.
Serve and enjoy!

Why bother making fire then? You can suck on your Dunlop steak as is. The only thing I'll allow to be pre-nuked on my fire is chicken. There's always one fokon rooinek with a half frozen chicken at a braai and they're always late and wait until everyone ells meat is done when they sheepishly come to you and ask if you could braai they're fokon frozen flatty. Or worse they ask your wife to ask you.Chilli wrote: Wed Aug 12, 2020 4:36 am Make fire. While there are stil lots of flames, brush steak with liquid smoke.
