    Baby backs round 2

    So this time I didn't go to the butchers as I wanted to save a pretty penny or two... I got these babybacks from Waitrose (for my uk buddies) about £4 a Rib. These were so much smaller and uniform and pretty to look at (I don't even know what my butcher sold me last time, perhaps it was The Hulk...

    Half a leg of lamb

    Woke up and was feeling impulsive again and decided to whack half a leg of lamb on... Rubbed with olive oil, salt and pepper, a generous layer of garlic powder and then covered in a powdered bbq glaze from my butchers. Sat in fridge while I cleaned out the grill. Went on at just above 225° F...

I ended up with a Jumbuck dual fuel with smoker for £300 from my...
