2 T butter, plus 1 T extra

3⁄4 cup white wine

Risotto on a Cobb Cooker are a dream to make.

(5 minutes with the Dome Cover on and then remove for about 10 minutes). Season with salt and pepper and add the risotto rice. Gently fry your rice for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, before adding your wine. Add it and cover, allowing the wine to be absorbed by the risotto – about 2 to 3 minutes.

Give it a quick stir, add your vegetable stock and cover to cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring it every 5 minutes or so. After this time, all the liquid should be absorbed and your risotto almost cooked through. Add the goat’s cheese, cream and peas. Cover and cook for a further 10 minutes. Season to taste, stir in your finely chopped basil, top with a sprinkling of Parmesan and enjoy with a nice big herb salad.

PLEASE NOTE: The Cobb Supreme does not come with a Frying Dish accessory and therefore you will not be able to make this dish.

Remove the fish from the bone and place directly into the garlic butter. Eat directly from the pan and mop up with freshly torn bread.

LEMON ROAST CHICKEN

INGREDIENTS:

{SERVES 4-6}

1 medium chicken (about 1.5kg)

1 t paprika

2 t salt flakes

1⁄2 t cracked black pepper

Juice and zest of 1 lemon (reserve the skins) Olive oil

300g Brussels sprouts

2 cloves garlic

1 pack streaky bacon

1 can of beer

METHOD:

Prepare and light your Cobb Cooker with 1 CobbleStone [see fuel].

Add the Grill Grid, Dome Extension and the Dome Cover and let it heat up for at least 5 minutes.

Combine the paprika, salt, pepper, 3 T olive oil, lemon zest and mix well. Rub this mixture all over the chicken in all the nooks and crannies, inside and out. Add the beer and lemon juice to a jug and set aside as your ‘cooking liquid’. Add almost 1 cup of the cooking liquid into the moat of the Cobb Cooker. Put the chicken onto the Chicken Roasting Stand in a ‘seated’ position. Place the Chicken Roasting Stand with the chicken onto the Grill Grid and pop the Dome Cover on. The chicken should cook for about 90 minutes in total. Please note that the Cobb Supreme does not have a Chicken Roasting Stand, use the Fenced Roast Rack instead.

Cut the hard stems off the bottom of the Brussels sprouts, cut them in half, place in a mixing bowl and discard any dried out leaves. Drizzle with olive oil, season with a generous pinch of salt and mix well. When the chicken has finished cooking, remove it and cover with foil to rest. Remove the Dome Extension and Grill Grid replacing it with the Frying Pan. Close the Dome Cover and let the pan heat up for 5 minutes. Fry the bacon with the Dome Cover on for 10 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts and garlic and cook for 10 minutes with the Dome Cover on. Remove the Dome Cover and deglaze the pan with a big splash of ‘cooking liquid’ Cook for a further 10 minutes until the Brussels sprouts are cooked. Carve up the chicken, grab some bacon-laced veggies and dig in!

SMOKED LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT PESTO RECIPE

SMOKED LAMB CHOPS WITH MINT PESTO

INGREDIENTS:

{SERVES 4}

6-8 thick cut lamb chops Smoking chips, soaked in water 1 small bunch of mint

Juice of 1/2 a lemon

40g flaked almonds

1 garlic clove, crushed

Salt and black pepper

METHOD:

Prepare and light your Cobb Cooker with 1 CobbleStone [see fuel].

Place the Griddle and the Dome Cover on your Cobb Cooker and let it heat up for at least 5 minutes.

Make the pesto by chopping the mint, garlic and the almonds together, squeeze in the lemon, a small pinch of salt and good grind of pepper. Remove the Dome Cover and the Griddle and place the smoking chips onto the stone or briquettes. Place the soaked wood chips directly on the CobbleStone/charcoal (Cobb Premier Gas: wrap wood chips in a foil package with holes in the side facing up, place this on the gas jet to achieve the same effect). Place the griddle back on and place on the chops, fat side down and close the Dome Cover.

TIP: Use a kebab stick to skewer all the chops together so they don’t fall over when crisping up the fat.

Let them smoke like this for 15 minutes. Then remove the Dome Cover and the skewer (if you’ve done this) and place them onto the Griddle slightly spaced apart. With the Dome Cover off now, grill them on each side for 2 minutes each for medium rare. Serve with the minty pesto.
