Pork loin chops, about 15-20mm thick (trimmed of rind and excess fat)
For the marinade:
cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons apple juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon chilli powder
teaspoon salt
Place all marinade ingedients into a medium bowl and whisk.
Place the pork chops in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade.
Press the air out of the bag and seal it tightly. Turn the bag several times to distribute
the marinade, and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
Remove the chops from the bag and discard the marinade. Barbecue the chops for 5 to
7 minutes each side, or until no longer pink in the centre.

Sunday Breakfast
Barbecue on Breakfast Plate
Eggs
Bacon rashers
Sausages (optional)
Tomato halves
You will need an oiled breakfast plate (accessory). If cooking sausages place them on
the pre-heated breakfast plate for 6-8 minutes with the lid down. Turn them only
once or twice. Cook the bacon with the tomato halves (flat-side down). Add the eggs
and continue cooking for 3-4minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
Roast Chicken
Roast on Roasting Trivet.
Number 13 or 14 chicken
Oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Wash the chicken thoroughly and pat it
dry. Tuck the wings behind the back. Brush
the chicken with oil and season with salt
and pepper.
Place the chicken on the roasting trivet
inside the barbecue and cook, with the lid
down for 1 to 1 hours (smaller chickens
require less cooking time). The chicken
will be juicy and golden brown with crispy
skin. Serve it with your favourite gravy
and vegetables.

Mobile Trolley
In the upright position
(below) its just the right
height for cooking; in the
folded position it creates a
mobile trolley; and in the
collapsed position its easy
to transport or store
Vinyl Covers
Keep your Weber Q or
Baby Q clean and dust
free with a fitted
heavy-duty cover.
Breakfast Plate
Perfect for bacon, eggs,
sausages and pancakes. Great
for camping or a champagne
breakfast.
Roasting Trivet
Enjoy juicier, more succulent
roasts. The Weber roasting trivet
creates natural convection,
allowing super-heated air to circulate all around the meat.
