Colonel Fatboy von Bootleg

Wagga. It is a long weekend and you are about to ruin good meat.

Not on purpose. You will just grab whatever, throw it on too hot, and serve something fine. Fine is the enemy. Fine is forgettable.

Here is the move. Get into Wagga Meat Supply on Forsyth St this weekend. Talk to the blokes who actually know the cuts, walk out with the right one for the job. Then, sitting on their shelf, the Colonel. Pick up a rub, Magic Dust if you want one that just works on anything, and grab Volume 1 if you want to stop guessing and start knowing what you are doing.

Good cut. Right rub. A book that tells you the rest. That is the difference between fine and the thing your mates bring up next Christmas.

Wagga Meat Supply, 21 Forsyth St. Get in before they shut for the weekend.

Keep the smoke rolling.

Long weekend sorted. Get up to DJ’s Family Butchery in Yass for fresh roasting joints, slow cooking cuts and pork cutlets, and while you are there grab the Colonel’s rubs off the shelf.

Meat and seasoning from the one proper local counter. Buy from people who know their craft, season it like you mean it, and feed the whole crew.

Flavour is freedom. Smoke is diplomacy. And crackling is a human right.

Keep the smoke rolling.

That’s not just a win… that’s Canberra getting it right.
Old Canberra Inn has been doing it properly for a long time — good people, proper pub, no shortcuts. You don’t fluke a People’s Choice award… you earn it, one plate, one pint, one service at a time.
Proud to be part of it, proud to cook there, and even prouder to see the locals back it the way they have.

Well deserved. No arguments.
