Well, I took the jump and bought one. JML 12l, currently £ 46.89 (save £11) at Argos.

 

I have my very 1st chicken roasting right now, smells gorgeous and I am starving, lol.

 

I'll let you know how the experiment goes! ;-)

[Bookworm]

Why are you going over Crystal Palace Parade with camera in hand? :-?

[kiptower]

was coming to take a picky

[Bookworm]

Of my oven?

[kiptower]

PMSL not the finished chicken :grin:

[Bookworm]

Hope you have a good telelens then, cos I'm in New Addington so from Crystal Palace, even on clear day, you're going to struggle.

 

... Anyway, too late, all that's left is a few bones and the dog is waiting for those.

[kiptower]

i could find my way as far as the bus terminal / tram stop , mate live opposite, might stand a chance from there

 

on a serious note how did it turn out

[Bookworm]

Yeah, all right, all right, keep your knickers on, some of us are having technical setbacks here!

 

And it was very yummy indeed.

[kiptower]

did you get the stainless steel extender , which is good for a stand for the lid when not using it on the cooker

 

and makes the oven about 4 ltr's larger

[Woozel]

I wonder how many have bought these and use them regular

 

or

 

used it once and forgot it

 

too much trouble to use

 

didnt like it

 

 

never know this might turn into a Halogen Recipe thread

 

we bought 1 few months back and so did 2 friends, who are also caggers, the one that JML sell, have to say very pleased, and been swaping photo's of what we have cooked,

 

2 recent examples, done by a mate who had never done any cooking before

 

 

 

 

 

OMG - just seen this thread, but if that is real chicken skin, I'm off out to buy one tomorrow! :grin:

[kiptower]

yes that real, first time he had done a chicken

 

and the pork joint also

 

fivenecks and shebadog have posted some of the things they have cooked

 

and a few me and the wife did in and ours

 

and not forgetting Bookies yummy chicken tonight

[Bookworm]

did you get the stainless steel extender , which is good for a stand for the lid when not using it on the cooker

No, it just came with the 2 rings, the one you see and one on feet. Gimme a chance to see how the thing works before I go and rush to buy accessories!

[kiptower]

no problem bookie lots of deals around on the extra bits anyway on the internet

 

just a little word of caution the underside of the lid gets very hot be carefull when putting it down so that the metal plate inside the lid cannot come in contact with anything

[fivenecks]

pork lion joint

 

 

[Bookworm]

Pork LION joint?

[locutus]

Pork LION joint?

Yeah... it's like a pork loin joint... just with a bit more bite!

[Bookworm]

Oh, so you'd have it as a MANE course?

[Bookworm]

That should make some nice CUB sandwiches.

[Bookworm]

Maybe you need to use a Haleogen oven for that.

 

(Someone STOP me!!!)

stop stop stop
