Looking for a Flanders Red recipe

Does anybody have a Flanders Red recipe that they are confident in, and wouldn't mind sharing. I would like to brew one tomorrow to put on a Roselare Yeast cake that has a La Roja clone that needs to be transferred to a secondary.

He even talks about making 2 batches with the second being pitched right on the cake.
