Many summers as a smaller child hand cranking ice cream in 40 degree heat. This why I now have one of these

boom, next level....

Found a shoulder of lamb half price at the supermarket yesterday so bought it.

Got home and did a little research, and have prepared it for pulled lamb.

Dry rub overnight of garlic, lemon zest, sugar, salt, rosemary and toasted fennel seeds.

This morning I smeared on mustard.

Am working today so have pre programmed the smoker. Cooking at 115C until the lamb gets to 64C, then temp going up to 120 for the lamb to get to 90C, and then the temperature will drop to 75C for the joint to relax and hopefully it will be ready for when I get home at 5pm.

Pulled lamb?

Hipster meter goes off the scale...

Pan Pizza people, I think I need a little help. Got myself an oven proof carbon steel pan, just so I could try this today and had two undercooked pizzas, then one that burnt on at the bottom because I thought I'd leave it on the gas a bit longer before cooking under the grill. What am I doing wrong?

Hipster meater?

I have only ever cooked pan pizza with a cast iron pan. The thicker pan with the residual heat properties is what makes the method work. I reckon your pan is too thin so the heat transfer is all messed up hence the base cooking too quickly underneath and then not cooking properly under the grill.

This. Go to TK Maxx and get a cast iron one.

I have only ever done it with an old tefal that has lost most of its non stick coating.

Worked fine.

@mashton Please get a new pan, preferably not a non-stick one. Eating flakes of Teflon is probably not doing you any good.

So I've been vegetarian for close to 10 years but BBQ/ smoked meat still makes me jealous. Nice work @dancing james

Each year at my annual bbq at least one vegetarian abandons their principles!

Nah, that's my pizza pan. I have other, nice ones that I use for owt else.

The Teflon just goes straight through me. It's pretty slippy...

It's not a brilliant idea but if you love a slippy poo then who am I to ruin your fun.

Did Belgian quad brisket today. Bloody lovely.

Done

Maxims (of action). You can't abandon a true principle (it doesn't admit of exceptions, which is what elevates it above a mere rule).
