🤯 CHICKEN INASAL 🤯

One of our homies is Filipino/Scottish and he's introduced me this year to a whole world of cuisine I've just never really tried....

Filipino food. It's not a western holiday hotspot like Thailand, Bali or Japan but it has some incredible flavours we have been learning about.

Our favourites so far are:

Annatto oil
S**a
Banana ketchup
Calamansi
Ube 🟣

None of these flavours are like anything we have tried before. They're next level. A whole history of culture in food.

Here's our take on Chicken Inasal with rice, cucumber, s**a and Umami Papi

You marinade the chicken overnight (any cut) and then grill it over Heat Beads BBQ lump charcoal

Absolutely sensational recipe! The BENCHMARK of Filipino cuisine in our world....so far 🤘

Competition Wagyu Briskets

The craziest of trims, the strangest of techniques.....the most delicious of all!

We have been competing around Australia and the US for the past ten years and have seen pretty much everything there is to see in the scene.

It's a lot of fun but unfortunately in Australia it's dwindled a fair bit over recent years.

So what's been the cause?

Cost of living? Maybe
Same people winning all the time? Not really
Availability of comp grade meat? Nope!
People moving on, not everything is supposed to be forever.....yeah probably!

We love competing and there's nothing like the feeling of winning epic trophies 🏆

Since the beginning of time we have changed a lot about our comp cooks, our set up and our meat!

The only consistent.....has been our BBQ fuel and there's a reason for that, we prefer quality over price always!

We trust Heat Beads BBQ products because they always deliver the best results.

Lump charcoal
Coconut briquettes
Wood chunks
Hardwood pellets
Boosters

We love quality and that's achieved us amazing results! 🔥
