We have recently purchased one with all the goodies and the discount from here and used it for the first time two weekends ago; Fab

We cooked breakfasts on the griddle plate rather than the BBQ plate which were terrific and I cooked a stir fry in the wok on the Saturday night and that was just as good as doing it at home.

How long does it take to cook a small roast chicken on the rack with veg in the moat?

I usually poke the thermometer through the holes in the lid into a fleshy part of the chicken, when it says its done, I will give it another 5-10 mins to be certain.

hope that helps?

Whilst the Hairy Bikers use the Cobb they make no mention of it in their cook book. Love some of their recipes though!

We nearly always when doing a roast chicken or piece of meat ...put 9 beads on so we know it will cook it and not lose heat....

When we were in France last week we cooked a reasonably small chicken in the Cobb. I used one Cobblestone and with some bacon and loads of barbecue sauce on the top it took just over 1 and 1/2 hours. However, it was really pelting with rain the whole time and my attempts at covering the Cobb with an umbrella weren't always successful! I chickened out (sorry) of trying to cook vegetables in the moat - it always seems to get full of fat - which I know it's meant to do, but the thought of fishing out little sealed packets of veggies in their foil wrapping didn't appeal in that weather. So, with salad and some delicious wine, we devoured it. Only trouble was cleaning the Cobb next morning when a party of French school kids had taken all the hot water.

One tip - do make sure that the chicken will fit under the dome and on top of the roasting grille. If it doesn't, you will of course loose heat.

I love my Cobb!!

Chop a lemon into 4 pieces and put them into the mote prior to cooking. This makes the cleaning of the cobb very easy.... Nothing sticks with a lemon in the moat!

Just given in and bought a Cobb. Went for the combo+ with hopefully loads of free goodies.

Have been surfing the net for recipes and came across these:-

http://www.guidebooks.com.au/recipe7.htm

http://homepage.virgin.net/l.carter/cobbrecipes.htm

http://forum.cobbamerica.com/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=1

So loads of info out there. Had no idea you could do so much with it!
