Making chips on the BBQ

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Heat stroke actually. (Along with a few pints)

That's an even better tip!!!

Hey! it's not rained here for a week and it''s been above 70.
I was on the allotment for a few hours doing a bit of hard labour, So I HAD to go to the pub.

Plus Past for dinner NEEDS a good wine.

Don't you see what's going on here?

The Brits refuse to give positive affirmation to anything with a French name. That's why they don't call them French fries. Heck, they even pronounce fillet like fil'-lit. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

ANd we call blue cheese by it's name too. Who ever heard of Danish Bleu!? How much sense would THAT make!

FWIW, this is scattered, smothered, and covered:

It's sort of a southern thing. They're hash browns from Waffle House (aka the Awful Waffle).
They don't get one of those rings to mold it into a disk = scattered
with diced onion = smothered
with cheese = covered

They are actually very good but they are cooked with artificially-butter-flavored, industrial-strength oil.

That's because it's English/British food.

A Fillet is a Fillet, Blue cheese is blue cheese.
It's born bred, raised and made in the UK not france.

A Brie and a Camembert are french in style and sometimes bade in the UK but because it's a French style it's got a French name.

the US did change them to freedom fries for a short while.....

Orfy- do they have chicken and waffels in the UK?

Waffles

Chicken, I have 3

No chicken and Waffles dish though. You mean like this.

I love chicken and waffles, it is such an amazing combination. Your picture looks amazing Orfy.

On the topic of chips - I love them and miss them. I had real fish n' chips once in Ireland. They were amazing. I have been searching ever since and have been lazy about it - I will fry some up proper for myself next week.

Mind sharing your batter recipe Orfy?

You know what!?

I do like I do with most of my cooking a beer. I don't weigh, I always have the basics in. Grab and shake and pour. I go off look smell and consistency.

I use self raising flour, lemonade (room temp), salt pepper. You should sift the flour but I never do. I just whisk the dry flour to break up and get air in. Mix in the liquid and whisk. It's better if you can let it sit a little until you see some air bubbles raising and popping on the surface. I some times throw a very small amounts of finely chopped herbs in.

yea thats exactly what i mean! Well if one of your chickens decided to sacrifice itself- make some waffels and have at it. Per this thread- i never though about deep frying on a grill but im probably going to give this a shot. Pretty sweet
