Pineapple upside-down cake - Kate Irving 3

Pineapple Upside-down Cake

Kate Irving – Townsville QLD Ingredients butter (for greasing) 2 tablespoons sugar 6 slices pineapple (plus 3 tablespoons of juice) 3 strawberries (or cherries) 100 grams plain flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ¼ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 100 grams soft butter 100 grams caster sugar 2 large eggs Lanes Apple pie spice Steps Preheat the Z Grill 176°C. Butter a tin Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of sugar on top of the buttered base, and then arrange the pineapple slices to make a circular pattern as in the picture. Fill each pineapple ring with a slice of strawberry. Put the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, butter, caster sugar and eggs into a food processor and run the motor until the batter is smooth. Pour in the 3 tablespoons of pineapple juice to thin it a little. Pour this mixture carefully over the pineapple rings; it will only just cover it, so spread it out gently. Sprinkle with apple pie spice. Bake for 30 minutes, then ease a spatula around the edge of the tin, place a plate on top and, with one move, turn it upside-down. Sprinkle with a little more apple pie spice.

Tasty Mushroom Meat Balls

Michael Lamari – Townsville @thegrillingwog Ingredients 350 grams of mushrooms (portobello is best) 3 scallions (shallots) 4 cloves of garlic 1 cup panko crumbs 1kg pork and veal mince (could use just beef mince if you wanted) 1 cup teriyaki sauce or marinade 2 tbsp honey salt to taste Steps In a blender or food processor blitz up mushrooms, scallions and garlic cloves Once they are chopped up finely, mix in with the mince and panko crumbs Take 2-3 tbsp of the mixture and form into a meatball. Repeat this process until all mixture is used, then place in a fridge for 30 minutes to an hour to allow them to set. Pre heat your Z Grill to 190 degrees, once preheated places the meatballs directly on the grill grate (I sprayed my grill with a bit of oil before i started it up to prevent them from sticking) While they are cooking its time to make the sauce, mix together the teriyaki sauce and the honey set over low heat, once it has formed a nice thick glaze it’s ready. After 10 minutes its time to turn the meatballs over, leave for another 10 minutes and baste the glaze over them, you are looking for an internal temp of 73 degrees for doneness. Note I had my cast iron going on the grill as well with some mixed vegies. If you want to do this process, put the pan on the grill before the the meatballs and let it heat up for 5-10 minutes before putting the vegies on, and also allow them an extra 5 minutes cooking time.

Simple Reverse Sear Steak

Mick Humphreys – Heathmont VIC @zgrillsoz I do this simple steak quite often as is super easy and works great for cheaper cuts of meat that may not be as tender if just directly seared hot and fast. Also doing the low n slow cooking before the searing adds a bit of smokey flavour too. While lots of folks like to show off lines on the steak I personally prefer using the flat side of the cast iron plate for a more even and complete searing. Might not look as fancy, but I reckon it tastes better. This is not something you can have ready in 15min, as if you want the meat to have some low n slow time, you need to be patient. Cooking Time: 1 to 2 hours depending on thickness of meat Ingredients Porterhouse Steak, Rump Steak… any steak! Dry Rub (will do more than just one steak) Coarse black pepper (2 tablespoons) Coarse salt (1 tablespoon) Garlic powder (1/4 teaspoon) Olive oil (or other high smoke point oil) Steps Bring meat out of fridge and warm to room temperature Dry off meat with paper towel Apply dry rub to all surfaces (not too thick) Preheat the Z Grill to 107oC Place steak in grill with temp probe in the meat Cook until internal temp at ~55oC (for rare), 58oC for medium to well done Cooking time can be anywhere from 45min to 2 hours depending on the thickness of the steak Pull off the meat, wrap in foil and thick towel to keep warm while heating up the grill Set grill to High and place in cast iron plate (I prefer the smooth side up for more even sear) Once grill has reached 230oC apply thin layer of oil to the plate or directly to the steak Cook steak ~2 min each side. Keep the lid shut! Check internal temperature for doneness, cook a bit longer each side if required Rest for 5min, slice and serve
