Southern BBQ
Chicken , its lush, sticky and tangy and all the things you want to get finger licking good from your BBQ.
We discovered recipe over on Allrecipes.com
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 cloves largecloves garlic (chopped)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium finely chopped onion
- 200 ml cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- Mash brown sugar, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a mortar and pestle to form a paste. Spoon paste into a resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken, coat with the paste, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
- Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir ketchup, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce into onions; bring to a simmer and cook until flavors blend, about 10 minutes.
- Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade.
- Cook chicken on the preheated grill until lightly browned on all sides, about 1 minute per side.
- Turn off one of the grill burners or move the coals and move chicken so there is no heat source directly below it.
- Baste drumsticks with the sauce and cook another 10 minutes; turn again and baste chicken with sauce. Continue to grill drumsticks until juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes more. A thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Well we are up and running!
OK, maybe not running but taking small tentative baby steps into the wonderful world that is on-line blogging! We will stumble, we will fall but with hard work and perseverance we shall hit our stride with the help of our tech people at Sussex Web Support.
We wanted to start this blog purely to share with others the joy of a good BBQ and all that goes with it. Whether its the primeval urge to play with fire, the aroma of wood smoke, the many fantastic recipes that can be made or just to enjoy socialising with a cold drink and good friends, that’s what we want to promote.
We couldn’t of done this without the fantastic guys at Sussex Web Support. Not wanting this to sound like an advert they are the clever technical people behind us. From email and web hosting things to “Search engine optimisation” (apparently that’s something we need!).
They are amazing and have held our hands all the way, they helped us pick the server back-end thing and then helped us set it all up. We must admit we are still finding our feet with it all but they don’t mind us shouting out to them saying “what does this button do”!
Now its down to us, we just need to fill up this blog, safe in the knowledge that if we break stuff they can fix it!
So here’s to you guys at Sussex Web Support and your fabulous website maintenance packages! …..Thanks loads 🙂

Pulled beef is a really good take on pulled meat, this time using a good cut of brisket. A little bit of a chilli kick with a lovely smoky sauce.
The recipe here is based on oven cooking, however you can do it on your trusty BBQ, it just will take some time and you will need to keep the coals going.
We have used this a couple of times and never fails to please, originally found on BBC Good Food website
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2-2.5 kg piece beef brisket (rolled (ask the butcher to do this for you))
- 2 red onions (chopped)
- 1 tbsp sweet smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp English mustard powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp ground cayenne pepper or 1chilli flakes (omit if you want to reduce heat)
