I've been reading many of the UK posts for a while now. But it really didn't hit home with me until my wife had to entertain guests from England. My wife works for Koch Industries (those evil brother's as Democrats call them) Anyway, Koch bought Invista years ago and my wife was charged with dealing with VAT. I won't go there, but she went to London a LOT, way too much IMO!
Anyway, they sent a group to the states for a little over a week. They wanted to see what all this "BBQ" rage was all about! Despite my best efforts, we were unable to get them all to the house to show how it's done and eat something fresh off the smoker. But she did get them to a couple of the local haunts, laugh, but we do have some decent BBQ in Wichita KS! My wife said they were amazed at the flavor!
Maybe you guys need to send Gordon Ramsey to come over here and go back preaching? I know Gordon bought a Renault Robin to put in his back yard to smoke Salmon, so I'd like to think all is not lost?
Regardless, I'm sorry you have missed out on this for so long, I wish you all the best in your quest to learn, and I hope someone, like Ramsey, will jump on board and invigerat your movement!
I'm sincerely sorry I was so ignorant to this, I've had the opportunity to expose many people to this style of cooking, but assumed it was world wide. Boy was I wrong! I'm sorry!
