These beauties came from a 6lb chicken 🐓 ❤️

(And Desmond)

Marinated in a mix of peri-peri, Cajun, smoked paprika and thyme, pan fried and finished in the oven ❤️

Absolutely stunning 😍

The Curry King obviously decided to “give peas a chance” over the weekend!

2 lovely looking sirloins, seasoned, sizzled and teamed up with some big old field mushrooms and friends 😊

My kind of grub 😎

The Nutty Professor follows recipes more religiously than a Nun with OCD! 😳

This is a prawn pad Thai curry and, typically, is full of everything wonderful and tasty! 😎

Who doesn’t love a lamb shank or two?! ❤️❤️

Especially when they’re from young Desmond! 😎

I’m doing something a bit special with these - something quite surprisingly that I’ve never actually cooked before either and, as ever, I’m completely winging it!! 😱😂

I know the basis of the dish so….bugger it! I’m having a go! 😎

Watch this space 😉

Back this Thursday 🥳🥳🥳

Only joking - it’s probably something silly in all honesty! 😂

The Veteran Ryde pub quiz is back this Thursday starting at 1900! 🥳🥳🥳

Riddles, anagrams, film, TV, music trivia, prizes, a meat raffle and more await with all proceeds going towards helping support The Veterans Hub Isle of Wight CIC

Be there or watch Corrie 😉

Dad and Daughter date night done right! 😂❤️

That’s 16oz of heaven in mine 😍😍😍

Stunning steak burgers from young Desmond as ever ❤️

I think The Curry King could work on his presentation a smidge - unless he was actually going for the look of nappy secretions with rice? 🤔😂

But this is a surf and turf special!

A prawn bhuna with a chicken tikka just to show off a bit! 😎

The Nutty Professor is messing with my melon man! 🍉

A black bean and sweet potato chilli with extra bits 😱

Looks tasty, just ditch the avocado 🥑 🤢😂
