Summertime is all about the outdoor meal and firing up the BBQ. For us it is at least.  So we thought we’d look at how Smoke and Roast can jazz up the flavour on your barbie. These are some of our favourites.  Steak sprinkled with Smoke and Roast  Mushrooms wrapped in foil, a little dab of butter and a sprinkle of Smoke and Roast inside … say your prayers!  Fish, on the barbie, steamed in foil.

It’s been a great excuse to get the family together and with enough roast veggies in the oven, there is always room for any extra friends or family that want to join in.  We have discovered that using Smoke and Roast as the seasoning on a roast chicken out does Red Rooster for super flavoursome chicken. Here’s how we do it.  Ingredients  One (free-range - cause it’s the right thing to do) chicken  Olive oil  Smoke and Roast  A selection of vegetables to roast.  Method  Rub the chicken with olive oil and Smoke...
