Best. BBQ. Ever.
June 20, 2011
Hi blog… I forgot you existed so in an effort to provide a bit of a catchup I’m going to start with what I’ve done most recently and work backwards until I get to where I left off or forget that you exist again… whichever comes first 
So I went to Jon and Izzy’s yesterday for a BBQ with a difference. The advertised meat was a “safari pack” which basically involved weird steak from around the world. In approximate order of preference, this involved each of the following:
- Springbok – Like eating Bambi’s cousin. Carved like butter. Could be eaten with just a spoon.
- Ostrich - Very lean and delicious.
- Wild Boar – Traditionally sausages but works equally well as a steak.
- Kangaroo - Tried to bounce off the plate.
- Venison - Like eating Bambi.
- Bison - Like tough pork, a bit chewy for my taste, but still tasty.
These were all expertly cooked by Jon, muchos respect. In addition to these we also had a beef and chorizo burger also crafted by Jon, additional respect.
Total different types of meat in one meal: eight. I call that a win… Om nom nom

Excellent, the blog lives!
However, in the name of accuracy I think you should rename it to “The Quarterly Gripe” as there have been only two actual gripes this year. (And that’s generously assuming that the Muslamic Rayguns post was a gripe and not just sheer bemusement at the stupidity of it.)
Sort it out! We, the people, demand gripes! Or accuracy!
The word ‘gripe’ now looks really strange.
