Ideal steak cooking times
  • Rare - 2 minutes either side
  • Medium - 3.5 minutes either side
  • Well done - 6 minutes either side

    Mr Chadwick's top tip

    Just remember that rare, medium and well done maybe different for you and your guests so just ask them how 'bloody' they may want their steak and adjust your cooking time accordingly.

    Also the thickness of the steak will make a difference the above times are based on steaks about an inch thick.

    Cooking Joints
    When cooking joints always heat up the oven first; always put on a high heat and then reduce the heat during the cooking time as this will reduce the chance of overcooking.

    On average a 1.5 kilo joint should take about 1 hour 30 minutes but a good way to check if it is cooked to your requirement is to stick a thin sharp knife into the middle and look to see how red the juices are. If they are 'too bloody' for you then give the meat another 20-30 minutes.

    A four pound chicken will take 1 hour and 15-30 minutes; if you stick a small sharp knife in-between the thigh and the wing and the juices run clear then the chicken is cooked if the juices run cloudy then increase the cooking time.
     

    Luxembourg Lamb
    In honor of my good friend Christian from Luxembourg; he made us this dish one night before we went on a night out and it only took about 20 minutes; impressive and easy.
    Ingredients (all ingredients will depend on the number of people you are entertaining)

    Ingredients
  • 1 lamb rump per person
  • Fresh Tagliatelli
  • Button mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Teaspoonful of Mixed herbs
  • Quarter cup of white wine
  • 1 standard pot of single cream
  • Julian carrots

    Method
    Slice the mushrooms and place in hot pan with olive oil and cook for 3-4 minutes;
    once cooked place in a saucepan with wine, cream and mixed herbs and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
    Cook the pasta for the required time, drain and then add the sauce and mix with the pasta.
    Cook the meat in a hot oven for twenty minutes dependant on your preference.
    Cook the vegetables for the required time and serve with pasta and meat, fabulous!

    Cote de Beouf/Wing rib
    Ingredients
  • 2 ribs of beef on the bone
  • Half of jar of Chadwick's hot horse radish
  • Half a cup of red wine
  • 4 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
  • 1 large beef stock

    Method
    Mix the red wine stock and balsamic vinegar together and pour into the meat dish;
    take the half jar of horseradish sauce and smother the beef in it (do not worry the cooking process changes the flavour of the sauce so it won't be hot).
    Place in the meat dish and cover with foil.
    Place in the oven and cook for the first 60-70% of the time with the foil on, then remove in order to allow the meat to crisp up and the sauce to reduce.
    Let the meat stand for half an hour before slicing;
    use the juices for your sauce.
