Prawn’s kick arse and chillies kick arse. So it was inevitable that they would come together in a spicy invertebrate disgusting sex orgy... and produce the super fantastic dish, Chilli Prawn Spaghetti.

What you need-

Prawns (about 500gm of raw prawn meat shelled and deveined)
2-3 chillies sliced
400gm of crushed tin tomatoes
2-3 garlic gloves sliced
Big red onion finely chopped
Little chilli powder
Salt n pepper
Olive oil
Parsley (dried or fresh)
Lemon wedge for serving
Some kind of pasta we had fettuccini so we used that, it’s all the same, enough for two.

What you do-

After you have shelled and deveined you prawns you should rinse them then dry them with paper towels.

Start cooking your pasta about the same time you start the sauce. In a super hot fry pan splash in some oil, then the garlic, chillies and onion. Sprinkle a little chilli powder in there too. Fry it up for a minute or two, then add the tomatoes, fill the can half way with water swish it round and throw it in too. Simmer for about five minutes, add the prawns, cook until the prawns are done, this should only take a few minutes. Season well. Drain the pasta, add it to the pan, sprinkle some dried parsley or some fresh stuff, toss it, serve it.

There is nothing more manly than a steak. It’s fucking true!

When I’m feeling really manly I like to go 12 rounds with a surly bovine, you know, to tenderise it...

So we’ve been eating a lot of steak lately, maybe twice a week. We’ve been going to Tasman Meats to get all our meat, buying in bulk, and getting whole scotch fillets, sliced for our convenience. Usually yields around thirteen 200gm steaks, now they say its budget scotch fillet. Its Budget compared to King Island Scotch Fillet, but compared to supermarket scotch fillet, its fucking supreme.

Depending on weight, the price ranges from $22.00 to say $32.00 (for a whole Scotch Fillet). Compare that to paying around $20.00 at the supermarket for 4 steaks of the same/lesser quality.

Now if you’re feeling really fancy you can buy the King Island scotch, and I think that ranges from around $45.00 to $65.00 for the whole fillet, depending on weight of course.

What you need-

200gm scotch fillets
Tomatoes (biggish)
Capsicum
Broccoli
Feta
Bread crumbs
Chilli powder
Dried garlic granules
Dried oregano
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

What you do-

Cut the top of the tomato so the green stem bit comes out then scoop the insides out, you may need a knife to get the tough bits. Now depending on how many tomatoes you do you will need 1/1 ratio of fetta and bread crumbs. Sprinkle in some garlic granules, salt and pepper and oregano, mix well, and then stuff the tomatoes. Place on baking tray.

Cut the capsicum and broccoli into bite size chunks, place on a baking tray, drizzle with oil and season well. Throw some garlic on there too.

Put both trays in a pre-heated oven at 180c for 30-40 mins.

Alright steak, sprinkle with chilli powder season well and cook. Serve with some seeded mustard.

Spit roasting is an age old tradition of roasting meat over an open flame or coals, preferably coals.

Apparently warriors back in the day would skewer meat on their swords and roast it over the camp fire after a day of fighting.

So after I give someone the old one two, I like to skewer some meat on a big pointy sword thingy and roast the fucker up!

What you need-

A big pointy sword thingy (if you really want the warrior experience and use a real sword, then I would recommend a rapier or even a katana)

Meat (if you really want the warrior experience catch a rabbit, skin it, gut it and stick a sword up its arse)

Coals (if you really want the warrior experience...)

What you do-

Alright you can use any type of meat it doesn’t matter, lamb, chicken, beef, pork, hell even goat. (Don’t mind a bit of goat curry)

Alright right I’ve got a mini spit; it’s about 2ft long, the bar/skewer has a 4kg rating, so you can’t be cooking a whole lamb or anything like that. The bar came in this BBQ spit kit you can buy separately, and that came with a battery powered motor.

About 2kg of meat should feed about ten people, so I got a leg lamb that had been boned and sliced it into around about 8cm round steak like pieces then pounded it flat (not too flat) you’ll probably have some small pieces, that’s all right, once they’re on the skewer everything will alright.

Alright put all the pieces of meat in a bowl, drizzle olive oil, sprinkle some rosemary and whack it in the fridge.

Now go start your coals, I use those hot rock things you use in webers. Get some jiffy fire lighters throw a few of them down in the spit then top with some rocks, light the jiffy’s, wait half hour to forty or until the rocks change colour to white.

So start skewering the meat, use the big bits on the end so the prongs stick into them, and make sure you save a few for the other end. Season with salt and pepper.
lamb

Now it should take around three hours to cook all the way through if you don’t cut any off, but if you want, you can be slicing chunks of whilst it cooks, so it should take less time. I prefer to let it go all the way but I slice little bits off here and there, because you have a few bits that hang down... and you get hungry.

Have a lamb sandwich. Once it is cooked take it inside, get a sharp knife and start carving, it’ll look like you’re in a kebab shop... awesome!!

I own a few seasons of this, I think they were twenty bucks each or something. I only have the seasons when Jefferson's in it though, even though it still wasn't the greatest show it really was a lot better when he was in it...
