Big shrimps to go with my chicken, Cumberland sausages and cider. I made a sesame oil, cumin, vinegar and diced garlic marinade to drizzle on and use as a dipping sauce.
It was a fun day 🍻
I cover the chicken in salt before throwing it on the grill and then I spoon on my marinade of chopped garlic, vinegar, sesame oil, cumin powder and oregano. I use the same marinade for the shrimp and also as a dipping sauce after I've peeled the shells off.
This is my preferred way of grilling chicken other than using the rotisserie. 🐔🔥
A quick switchover of my rotisserie spits to get the skins that perfect colour. Sesame oil and salt is all I put on these big birds. 🍗
Here's 6 chickens spinning over hardwood coals. I was supposed to do 8 but the shop only had large birds. I'll try again in a month or so.
Total cooking time about 70 minutes. Seasoned with sesame oil and salt 🐔🔥
Here's my grill spinning six big birds. All over woodfire coals, prepared and cooked in less than 2hrs.
I coat them with sesame oil and add salt as they spin, pulled off and wrapped once the temps were between 65-70⁰c. Total cooking time around 65 minutes.
I switch the spits over when the skin reaches a nice colour. I do that by raising the grate and resting one spit whilst swapping over the other. I have a video of that too but it won't let me upload atm.
Woodfired sausage chops and vegetables on my Argentinian style BBQ grill.
Frying some Cumberland sausages on the plancha next to a juicy spinning chook. I gradually poured the garlic and honey marinade the shrimps sat in over the chicken, giving her a nice coloured skin by the end. 🐔🦐🦐🔥
Spinning a bird in the dark on my Argentinian grill. Left the chicken on a bit too long just to get a darker colour. Pulled it off at close to 70c⁰ and wrapped straight away, could have been more succulent but still tasted good and smokey. The prawns get a squeeze of lemon and I just pick at as I go🦐🐔🦐🦐🦐🔥🍻
I cooked a big fat duck on here the other week and I was not expecting it to taste so gamey. I've been told wet brining it is a good way to get some of that taste out so I'll have another attempt one day soon. At £9 for this big bird I'll keep going till I get it right. The colour of it at the end after I added the glaze was really nice so I'll repeat that step again. 🦆🔥
