Our Smoked food @ Melksham (Wiltshire) Food Festival Sun 15 Spet 2013

[_Stretchie_]

Ladies and Germany, boys and gurlz

It is my pleasure to inform you that my good lady **AHEM** and I have a stall at the local food Festival this Sunday, I know many of you have seen my posts about smoking pork shoulders and ribs amongst other things, well we are going to have a go this weekend and see how it is received by the public.

We are all Food Hygiene certificated and insurance'd up and have paid for the stall.

I have stripped, cleaned and painted the smoker and done some test runs this weekend.

I also did my pork loin which I don't smoke but instead gets cooked over charcoal and is the juiciest pork loin you will ever taste, guaranteed

We also did our own Mac n Cheese, and BBQ beans, the macs good but the BBQ Beans are awesome, two different types of beans, pulled pork and not a Heinz wrapper involved at any stage

So if your local, come on down and try us out.

The menu for the actual day is: (*subject to change)

Mains

- Pulled pork baps, great with coleslaw and a big dose of our home made sticky BBQ sauce
- Ribs - A few ribs from the rack and some sides, due to the nature of the cooking process these may sell out quickly but will be available periodically through out the day

Sides

- Mac n Cheese
- BBQ Beans

Good luck guys and thanks again for your patience and advice recently helping me start smoking lol:D

[gruntygiggles]

Not often you get thanked for helping someone to start smoking, lol!

[PyroUK]

You have no idea what you have done to me!!! Did you have to include pictures!!!!!

Sadly I have family commitments so can't make it otherwise I would have gladly eaten all of your food!

Maybe I can convince Granty to bring me some...? :)

I maybe limping my way over there for that food! I won't be biking unfortunately but still want to be out and about

[Tomor]

That looks amazing! Job, take me with you?

[gruntygiggles]

Will be great to see anyone who can make it. It will be very interesting to see what people make of proper smoked BBQ. It's a taste that people think they know as they've had it in a pub or bought "smoked bbq" ribs from the supermarket but that all uses liquid smoke. It's nothing like this stuff so very nervous/excited to see how people react to it.

So scary but exciting at the same time.
