    Meat + Fire. That is all.

      I do a nice bit of pork belly in a maple syrup glaze. Needs a good couple of hours over an indirect heat, mind you, but I normally get the crackling good and crispy.

        A tikka/tandoori or masala sauce...goes great with a charcoal barbecue on almost any meat or veg

          This is the book that I go to for all my BBQ recipes. I'm crap at cooking but this starts from the basics and walks you through in a simple and straightforward way. I'm taking it on holiday with me

            Kudu steaks, marinaded in some spontaneously mixed up splodge of pepper, paprika, garlic and oil for a couple of days.

            Crocodile saté, likewise marinaded.

            South African style Chili, Coriander and Lime Sauce.

            Barbecued bananas and vanilla ice cream for pud

            Charcoal and wood, cast iron barbecue;




            Wine; lots of it, please.

            And absolutely not that poofty-woofty Dutch excuse for a BBQ with gas burners and the whole selection of industrial 'Calvé' sauces and paper plates and useless plastic knives and forks. Same goes for a braai; stuff your gas bottles, get it right with a hot fire that actually heats up the braai enough to sear the meat instantly instead of waiting all bloody afternoon for a piece of bacon to turn into an old shoe.

              This guy is pretty good and his book is really useful as well.

              My favourite is roast chicken either with nowt or spiced, but I also like to do a spiced lamb shoulder and slow cook that, or just good old spare ribs with a nice bbq sauce. Fish is also nice and I prefer to cook whole rather than fillets.

                Mine used to be a nice cold Augustiner or Hacker Pschorr helles or a Fransiskaner weissbier but these days I'm alcohol free. I can probably get away with one of the 0.5% low alcohol Weinstephaner weissbier they sell in the local Tesco though. That's quite drinkable. The alcohol free lager is foul though.

                I did used to like a nice bottle of wine as well. A good Barolo, a nice Chablis, or something from WA where I did a tour of the vineyards once. Vasse Felix tends to be the one that turns up in supermarkets most often. I'm quite fond of the Petaluma ones as well.

                My favourite cocktails are all whiskey or bourbon based so more of an evening / nighttime drink.

                While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
