I don't need to be asked twice to roast a chicken, so when I saw this new Oven Roaster, it had to be done. This massive roaster comes with a rack, and at 38 x 32cm x 7.5cm it should take care of the biggest joints. My medium chicken looked rather lost in it, so I threw 6 Pork sausages in there too. … [Read more...] about Tala Oven Roaster

Home Made 12″ Pizzas
We love a takeaway pizza, but its January and we're still the wrong side of payday.

Well, I’ll Be Burgered…
We're MASSIVE Burger fans. And fans of MASSIVE Burgers. These days, there's a variation for everyone out there.... Beef, Chicken, Fish, Vegetarian, you got it. Cheese? Yep, Bacon? Bring it on!
