BBQ Jamie Oliver Style

I absolutely love Jamie's approach to food. I disagree a bit with some technique aspects, but his appraoch is spot on IMO!
 
I just found a Jamie O. cook book in the grocery store "bargain bin" for about 3$ called "Jamie's America" . I have not really had much of a chance to look through it yet but I can say that watching and listening to him cook is much better than reading it.
 
I dig JO a lot as well. He's always been one of my favorite TV chefs.
I've got his "Jamie at Home" cookbook. I've been wanting to make his English Onion Soup since I first saw it on his show. My favorite one is where they go out in the woods, pick fresh mushrooms, plop down on a stump, open the backpack and start cooking them.

As he'd say, "Brilliant!"
 
He does have a great approach. Funny enough, I saw him in tape, at an event where there were a lot of other chefs cooking, and his technique, was miraculously, much better. He can raise his game, but, I think he really likes being approachable
 
Love his approach,he does some very basic nice stuff.
I am a fan.
We get him often down here on TV.
Cheers.

Great video, thanks for sharing it. I can definitely tell that he and
APL are business partners. It's pretty clear that he has learned a
lot from Adam and that he's borrowed some of his techniques.

You should whatch the tv version of that book...you won't be dissapointed.

To me Jamie is in my top 3 list.
 
We were part of a show he did a couple of years ago. Nice guy but he stole some of our pork rub to make a dish with for the show and gave us no credit ....he called it 'his cajun rub'. :roll:
 
Jamie is a very good cook.
His approach is so laid back it looks easy.
Just goes to show you don't need a $5000 smoker or fancy grill
to turn out quality food.

That is not cool. He does not come across as that type of guy.

BTW - Lived in Groby for a year in the mid 80's.
 
In addition to all the $$ I spend on BBQ paraphernalia every year (week), I've now got to go to the bank to get a loan so I can put a replica of that kitchen added on to my house. Looks like the most perfect place to cook.
 
I guess I'm in the minority. I can't stand that ***hat :evil:

Maybe his food is okay, I don't know . . .
