car rotisserie

car rotisserie

The first meat that I ever wanted to cook on a barbecue was a chicken using the rotisserie and I’ve never really stopped to think about why. I guess it’s down to “the boy with a new toy” mentality in that the BBQ spit came in the pack with the grill and a rotisserie cooking process adds dynamism. Looking back not only is it visually appealing but also the spit does the work for you leaving plenty of time beer or two!

Maybe I did one too many beers on that first cookout because the results weren’t quite up to standard. I tried to light my grill with paper and wood which sent ash all over the chicken. I didn’t balance the chicken very well on the spit so one side cooked before the other. I made every mistake in the book.

Having said that, getting that first taste of BBQ smoke was still a defining moment and even after my first disastrous attempt with the rotisserie I was (and still am) hooked on outdoor cooking.

I progressed gently onto sausages and burgers learning as I went that the fat off the food causes the smoke and also the flames and when flames appear, the food doesn’t cook, it burns. Since discovering this point I’ve had to adjust every charcoal barbecue that I’ve ever bought with an extra notch to raise up the grill and keep the flames from lapping up at that first spit of the fat. Grill manufacturers take note!

For greater variety I later invested in a copy of Ainsley’s Barbecue Bible and this took me to higher levels even to the point where people were starting to look at what I was cooking and asking how I’d done it. If they were lucky they even got to taste it!

Anyway, barbecuing has become a way of life for me and now the internet provides so many free barbecue recipes and easy smoker recipes there’s plenty of menu ideas for my next cookout. Social networking though is still my favourite way to learn and by that I’m referring to talking with fellow enthusiasts and not necessarily over the web.

I tried barbecue cookout competitions and whilst there was a great sense of occasion and lot’s of fun, it was a little too competitive and recipes kept as closely guarded secrets. So where can you go to meet like minded people? Where can you find more barbecues, smokers and outdoor grills in one place and people sharing and having fun?

At a sports event!

Being a petrol head I regularly hit Les 24 Heures Du Mans (that’s the Le Mans 24 Hour Endurance race to you and me) in France. Not only is there a mix of barbecue nutcases and pyromaniacs they come from all over the world so where else is there such a wealth of knowledge, experience and above all a sense of fun?

Camping by a race track with cars flying past at 150+mph, what could be better? OK so it might not appeal to everyone and it doesn’t have to be as exotic as Le Mans, I found a similar atmosphere with a completely different crowd down at Twickenham for the rugby cup final, everyone focused on partying, enjoying the food, the event and the other people there. The event isn’t important, it’s the occasion and the people that make it what it is.

So in my book social networking is the answer for new ways to barbecue. For free barbecue recipes, get down to you local sports stadium and have a wander around before the ball game and the inspiration for your next barbecue menu ideas will be right in front of your eyes. This is my idea of social networking!

Bon Appetite!

vintage warehouse

This is a strange paradox. As time continues to move forward, our preoccupation with the vintage continues to grow more and more. Even the most modern of homes today can be seen making a grand style statement with vintage objects. Vintage Posters are a case in point. It’s not hard to imagine the walls of a modern home flaunting a strategically placed vintage poster, suitably highlighted and beautifully framed, drawing admiration and furtive glances of envy from your guests.

Old is gold, they say. Indeed, the vintage rarely ever goes out of style. Sometimes, the most striking and impressive style statement can be made with a simple retro touch. Vintage posters give you a great opportunity to add a whole new dimension to the décor of your rooms, adding style affordably while evoking sweet nostalgia and a fond remembrance of the age gone by. If you are a movie enthusiast, try decorating the walls of your room with a few select vintage posters of the old classics. It would be a great experience to have the company of Bogart, Brando or Cary Grant in your drawing room, or you could be enjoying yourself in the company of some really classic beauties of the silver screen such as Marilyn, Bacall or Ingrid Bergman.

The best way to shop for vintage posters is definitely the Internet. With just a few clicks of your mouse you can browse through hundreds of vintage posters online, buy the ones you like and then have them delivered to your doorstep. Buying Poster Online offers a great deal of convenience. There are quite a few very good online poster stores that have a very impressive vintage section. There are a few more sites entirely dedicated to the subject. Browse through their inventory of vintage posters of all kinds and sizes, and take your pick.
