Porchetta is done and resting, just finishing a few duck breasts now then off to my sisters for a family dinner. More pics to come

Speaking of corn on the cob and my stomach that is a bottomless pit for fresh corn on the cob - I need to find out when the next delivery from the farmer is so I can get it as fresh as possible. After 3 days 50% of the sugar in the corn has turned to starch seriously changing the taste and it also makes the corn tougher. From on the stock to pot asap is my motto for corn on the cob.

The duck was eaten as an appetizer, they ate it as fast as i could slice it lol And of course all veggies/tomatoes were garden fresh

Corn. From plant to KK to tummy. Yummy.

Thanks Brian. Lot of benefits this year: 1) All the kernels formed. Last year's were very patchy. 2)No critters got to them before I did. 3) I live a long way from Mac so I can eat them at my leisure. That said, I wouldn't mind living closer to @C6Bill although it does sound like he is very busy with his lady friend a lot of the time and wouldn't have much time for hungry BBQ buddies like us.

Did some chicken drumsticks on the KK, and roasted some previously boiled potatoes. Served with the tail end of the yellow beans for this year and some Egyptian onions.

Seven spatchcocked chickens over oak splits on the Santa Maria/Argentinian grill. For once, I didn't build my fire too big.

Sorry I have never heard of them although I just googled and found them. Horseradish does lose potency very quickly. If you can get fresh horseradish where you are my suggestion would be to buy some and make your own horseradish sauce fresh. I just bought a root yesterday and made some beetroot and horseradish pickle today. First time and I need to wait a while for it to mature.

Darn it, @MacKenzie! That video is just cruel! 😉

smoked bacon and coffee day i actually don't know if i'm doing a good job roasting these coffees. i feel like this is the best i can do on this setup and getting repeatable consistency is not going to be possible. nope, i am not getting a tabletop sample roaster..😅

This works for me 😁

@Tekobo, you are lucky I'm not there, I'd have devoured that in the blink of an eye.

One trick is to make sure that there's no moisture on the surface of the meat. Blot it off with a paper towel just before tossing on the sear grate (upper grate turned upside down on the charcoal basket handles.) Moisture creates steam, which prevents the browning that you're looking for.

Beautiful job on those, David. You must love to bake as much as barbecuing.

Looks great !!!!!

Great looking meal! Always good to hide the wine empties; very professional! That way, you can sneak in another bottle(s) with none the wiser.

@Tekobo, wow. Even the potatoes look fantastic.👍👍 Here's a full one for you .

Smaller corns are always the best ones! Looks great tekobo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Working backwards from the remains of the meal...here are the empty wine bottles that I discovered when I opened up the shutters on my BBQ cupboard this afternoon. The four of us LOVED this duck recipe. Even my husband who is not that keen on cooked citrus. The potatoes were cooked on the 23 in the drippings from the duck cook. The double bottom pan on the cool side of the 32 was a very good way to collect the juices and fat without burning them. And here is the cooked duck sitting pretty on the 32 after about 7.5 hours' cooking.

sure if you guys wanna fly out here..😂 today is danishes, in various forms and fruit toppings..

croissant night...

Looking good @Aussie Ora. I made the mistake of putting two bone in shoulders on the spit. You can guess what happened. They got very tender and one of them fell off and into the fire! Looking forward to seeing your end result. Rolled and boned is the way to go!

made a breakfast pizza on the alfa. its really too hot for slinging pizzas outside in this weather. i want a brick oven built into the wall of my kitchen so i can do this in air conditioned comfort wearing only my underwear…

i don't do much bbqing in the summer as its too hot. 2 min on the roof and i need a shower..
