Barbecueing a whole chicken
What a great weekend that was. The Paleo festival on Friday night was great. There was loads of cool music that I'd never heard of before, loads of delicious food from all over the world. I did manage to loose my shoes though. Massive Attack were god, but blimey.... a bit dark. I've grown up listening to Massive Attack. When we had cassettes I had their music on cassette. Then I hadCD's of their albums and now MP3, but weirdly I never even knew that they are a proper guitar band. I'm such a musical numpty.
Anyway, after camping at the festival we stopped in at my great friends Ryan and Sarah who live near Geneva on the way home. And barbecued a whole, peri-peri marinated chicken. He's from Zimbabwe, my mate & he knows how to do a barbecue. First you need a good, weber BBQ. Then build a smallish hot coal fire on one side of the thing. When it's nice and hot, put your whole, marinated chicken on the grill on the side away from the hot coals, put the lid on and wait. Baste the thing and turning it round to make sure it cooks through evenly and in a couple of hours (or around the same time as you would from an oven), you'll have an amazingly delicious roast BBQ chicken.
Anyway - here's the first sequence from the Paleo film I'm making... just 17 seconds so far, but it's showing some promise.
