Two more bottles of the Hermitage mentioned above made their way into an order that arrived today. They'll be allowed to settle, but won't last for long. Right, come on then! Just ordered a couple of bottles via a friend who works at TWS (extra 20% discount :thumbup:) How long should I decant it fo...

Chicken livers are worthy of mention here.

Delicious little things.

I was lucky enough to see Winwood perform earlier in the year, just before lockdown and the end of live concerts. He's still got it at 72.

RIP Spencer.

Christensen, Zouma and Kepa are all liabilities. They have a weak defence. I hope Everton or even Villa could do it but I can see both teams unraveling at Xmas. Then again, the same was said of Leicester... Everton are the ones to watch for me - great depth and talent in the squad, and arguably the...

Jean-Pierre Rives.

Watching rugby as a kid in the late 70s and into the 80s, this is the guy that I wanted to be when I ran out on the pitch.

Am I right in saying he doesn't oppose lockdown per se, but rather is trying to extract compensation from the Govt in exchange for his blessing? This, but there is a massive subplot with Burnham, fueled by his dislike of the "Westminster Bubble" and desire to see more power devolved to cities and l...

The skin on that fish looks pleasingly crisp, but there's a hint of dryness to the presentation side, that makes me concerned that you've over cooked it a tad. As for white asparagus, it's a abomination from a jar or worse still a tin, that dreadful French people think is acceptable in salads all y...

Low and Slow lamb shoulder from the weekend. Smoked for the first hour or so with hickory and rosemary, then left to cook at about 130c for about 5 hours. Meat was super soft and fell away for the bone - garlic and rosemary crust was delicious too. Pretty happy with the smoke ring in pic 2. That lo...

Thanks Mike.

Served up with roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese and some token green things.

Very happy with the smoke ring and juiciness of the ribs.

Grass fed Irish beef rib - 6hr cook with hickory smoke for the first 2hrs or so.

Cooked at around 120/130c until the internal hit 95c and the toothpick test was good.

Wrapped and rested for about an hour - result was great.

Nice choice shanky - enjoy. Dude, this thing does 0-100 in 5 secs Bit of a slouch then :-P Ha ha. Yes Had a very hard look at the Macan after you said. There were literally no Mk1 models available here. 😟 In any event, I chose the pimp-mobile due to personal foibles. Your foibles are fine and under...

Just flat on the grill and above, but far enough away from direct heat.

Cranked up, it can get pretty crazy hot inside the kamado, the naan cooks in about 2 mins and puffs up a treat.

Anyone on here got their own tandoor? Has anyone built one? I've got a large kamado bbq and I can suspend skewered meat through the top air vent when it's fully open. I can also suspend inside the bbq, using an extension to the cooking rack, and suspend the meat directly above open charcoal - a ske...

Get back on that horse and clippity cloppity your way to whatever better looks like, and well done for taking the hardest step.

So, take me through why the 'new ' engine is inferior? The first reason is plain old Porsche snobbery - the new engine is an Audi built one, and yes I know they're all in the same group, but it's not a Porsche engine. The second reason is that the 3.6 V6 in the Gen1 cars is a really nice engine - b...

Before you buy and F-Pace or a Cayenne, have a go in a Gen1 Porsche Macan Turbo. This is very good advice. Erm , I’ve never denied being a c unt , so my advice was honest . Also consider the last non turbo )gen1 991 get the targa. Thanks Bimbo. I bought one in August, on a bit of a whim, but one ca...

I think it's down to this and the Cayenne Before you buy and F-Pace or a Cayenne, have a go in a Gen1 Porsche Macan Turbo. Not the new Gen2 one, that's got a dreadful 2.9 Audi V6 in it. The Gen1 Turbo (anything up until 2019/20 model) has a really sweet 3.6 V6 engine that's built by Porsche and kic...

Roughly, how much do you think it weighs?

Azlan Roar

Regarding the score marks on my steak ... since when is that an indicator of a well cooked stake? I intentionally slow cooked it fwiw, with the lid on and basting each side with butter regularly. I saw a BBQ documentary recently (one of the ones on NetFlix) where the chef said any score marks were ...

T-Bones are not my first, second or third choice of steak Score marks from the grill are sub amateur Steak looks to be on the medium well side of medium Steak looks like mum has cut it up for a child Greasy potatoes Scotch before or after that meal, Cab Sauv with. 5/10, entirely edible but to rate ...

It does taste a bit like chicken, and I'm aware of that common name for it, but I think it just stands out as a very tasty thing regardless of the chicken comparison.

Superb Hermitage from the Wine Society for £36 a bottle. Ordered some last week after spotting an online ad saying they'd just found these hidden in a dusty corner of the warehouse, or some such marketing guff. Either way, a superb wine for the price - if you like Hermitage, you'll know that this is...

There is woodland close to me where I can find laetiporus sulphureus.

It's delicious.

Well played Earl, and thanks for running.

I've been in touch with Justin Rose to let him know how badly he let me down and that he cost me a win. He's not come back to me yet.

Love a drop of Sancerre and particularly the Sancerre rouge, which can stand out as offering good value on a wine list with pricey Burgundy alongside.

That was humble of Hagler to forgive him.

Meanwhile, in 1980, Minter said what he said and got his ar$e handed back to him on a plate.

Azlan Roar

His remarks prior to the Hagler fight, and the riot at Wembley after it was stopped in round 3, will always be part of his legacy. Hagler did a proper job on him that night, and was undoubtedly fired up by the pre-match comment. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/obituaries/2020/09/10/TELEMMGLP...
