We have taken COBB on our road trips a number of time. So, we thought it would be a great ideas to take the COBB along with us in our long trip across Borneo during the recent Chinese New Year break.  Our trip from Kuala Lumpur took us to Kuching (977km flight across South China Sea), then to Mulu National Park (555km flight across Sarawak), Kota Kinabalu (268km flight from Mulu via Miri), Kundasang (93km drive from Kota Kinabalu) and Sandakan (240km from Kundasang) before flying back to Kuala Lumpur (1,848km flight). For this trip we have to take four flights...

Controlling Heat in COBB  If my last post is about attaining perfection, this post is about fine-tuning that perfection. While COBB maximum temperature is best for roasting, slower cooking method requires lower temperature. Low temperature is perfect for slow cooking. If you use COBB Gas, you can get the desired temperature by just turning the knob to low. However, if you use charcoal, you have to perform a few extra steps in order to achieve the ideal temperature. Meat cut such as beef brisket is suitable for slow roast.  The first step, is to determine what kind of food you are...

If you've been using COBB for a while, you would've noticed that the COBB's internal temperature can hit at least 350F (175C). This temperature is enough for you to bake (cake, muffin, bread, pizza) and to roast (lamb, beef and poultry)  Turkey, smoked roasted for about 3 hours until its internal temperature reaches 175F The best way to ensure that your baking or roasting is perfect every time, is to use temperature gauge or thermometer. Using a timer may not necessarily give the most accurate results for roasting because the starting temperature of the meat may vary. For instance, a piece of...

Ok...I don't like charcoal and I don't like how it feels on my hands. I am also a non-smoker and don't want to share my second hand smoke from my BBQ with others. Did I tell you that I live in an apartment and my neighbours will complain if  I produces too much smoke? If you fit into the above descriptions and smoke is your enemy, gas BBQ is for you. However, charcoal BBQ has its benefits too. Based on feedbacks from our customers, charcoal remains the favourite for many. Some swear by the smoky flavour of their BBQ meat when...

A dear friend of ours flew in from Melbourne recently. To celebrate her, we decided to throw an early Christmas dinner.  Our main course was a 4kg turkey, smoked in the Cobb Premier. We served it with our homemade cranberry sauce, gravy, roasted potatoes and butternut squash. There is no trick to do it with COBB. We just brine the turkey overnight and truss the bird with string and place it on a roast rack with COBB extension. For smoking with use apple wood chips which has been soak in water. The whole process takes about 3.5 hours. We need to...
