    BBQ
    Had our first BBQ of the season. With the weather as it was who wants a bloody roast dinner?

    Other meat / veggie roast
    Mom went all out. Prime rib, twice baked potatoes, steamed asparagus and dinner rolls. A wonderful way to send me back to school!

    I’m no snob - but it really should have been a crisp white with that mate.

    Roast dinner is the most overrated meal ever....(Christmas dinner aside)

    I had a softshell crab burger from the burger shack in the garden of The Station pub in Hither Green. It was reasonably nice but I was disgusted, despite the fact that I wasn't paying the bill, that it cost £15, didn't come with chips, and you had to pay £4.50 if you wanted curly fries. So £19.50 for burger and chips - when did that become okay.

    Other than that, I spent the day consuming Easter Guinness, followed by Easter rum, in better pubs than The Station.

    Proper Charlton mate, I take personal responsibility for protecting our domain. Good job I do as well - on returning to Hither Green station, I noticed that the Holmesdale Helmets, or whatever they're called, had left a sticker on one of the platform signs - "Palace til I die" or some such nonsense.

    Getting to Cup Finals, not getting relegated from the Premier League, winning at Man City and Arsenal - I can take all of that on the chin. However, if you start taking liberties on Network Rail property - be that railway stations or rolling stock - then you are therefore messing with me and messing with my entire family.

    was astounded going past a McDonalds yesterday lunchtime and seeing how busy it was.

    If you had something outside a traditional roast yesterday, share with us what it was
    Will give McDonald's a go 👍

    Lamb is too expensive, so we just have plain old chicken tomorrow.

    I’m having cold baked beans out of a can, down in the basement bunker, surrounded by my 376 packs of toilet paper.

    Got a leg of lamb in Asda the other day. Feeds at least 3, probably 4 for £11. You're a proper tight arse.

    I met a couple at the farm shop yesterday (at a suitable distance, of course) who claimed that they never cooked. They admitted that they were fed up with takeaway curries and had decided to buy some meat (something they clearly weren’t used to). You’re supposed to pre-order at our farm shop at the moment and the staff bring it out to your car.  They had a recipe book in the car and were working what quantities to buy. Extraordinary.

    I know it’s a bit lonely at the moment but pretending a Turkey is your sister is a bit much!

    Lamb Roast
    I'm roasting a pork belly. Come up with my own recipie/method having taken inspiration from about 4 different online recipes. Gonna braise the pork belly skin side down before slow roasting with fennel, white onion and apple to hopefully give the perfect crackling and the soft melt in your mouth pork. Cooking with fennel for the first time.

    Very excited.

    Edit. My vote for lamb roast was from last year. Couldn't get a lamb anywhere in our local shops last week.

    ditto - really enjoyed last couple of days in the garden - the upside of this lockdown is you feel much more comfortable lazing about in the garden as there's bugger all else to do

    Lamb Roast
    Normally lamb for Easter but I am doing a roast pork shoulder today. 

    I normally cook a roast most Sunday’s so will be a bit more normal apart from having the footy on the tele in the kitchen as I do it. 

    Happy Easter to all I hope what ever you are doing today you are safe and well.
