It’s NEVER too early for a drink. Love it brother

Cheers mate. 5pm somewhere??!!

[@lightninmann]

Great recipe, have made this many times. Always get asked by my guests when invited to a bbq if it’s on the menu. Thanks Geoff 👍

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

We saw this message and said “Let’s make it this weekend!” Thanks for the message. That’s great!

[@andrewschram543]

Hi Geoff, just purchased a Sous Vide and loving it. Won't be upset if you do more recipes using the sous vide. Cheers.

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

One coming very soon! Well done. Here’s a free one. Baby potato side dish. Unpeeled baby potatoes with butter, thyme (Or dill. Or Rosemary) and garlic. 85C for at least an hour. Thank me later. 😂

Pleasure Tim! Let us know how you go :)

[@danielcottmain4035]

Just fantastic thank you

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

Cheers! Glad you liked it!

[@danielcottmain4035]

Should Calamari be prepared the same way?

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

@@danielcottmain4035 I’ve never tried to be honest. Only one way to find out! We are doing a calamari video today … but it isn’t sous vide …. Stay tuned.

Hey thank you! Great to have you aboard 👍🏼👋🏻

[@WeberEnthusiast]

This is something I’ve wanted to try for a while , though my misses is no a fan of octopus

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

It’s a great way to get it tender that’s for sure :)

[@samg1358]

Can you do squid / calamari on the kamado. Greek style?

[@maryjaneharvey2844]

This looks amazing! So many times when we order octopus we're disappointed because it's tough. Problem solved! Only problem is I don't have a kamado! I don't think I could get anything that hot! Any ideas?

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

Your gas Bbq would be fine. Or griddle pan? Just make sure it’s very hot. You want the charring / searing time to be very quick. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@jangreco8589]

This looks positively dreamy but do have a question: Its unlikely that I will be able to find quality fresh octopus, but the Asian market I shop at always has it frozen. Thoughts on trying this with frozen octopus?

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

I’ve never made from frozen. That said, I’ve used frozen scallops, Prawn, Lobster, Calamari …. Give it a try! Let me know how you go. I’d be curious to hear about it :)

[@gme_to_the_moon-v1p]

I usually just stir fry them in a hot wok. Seems too much trouble to bring out the grill for two minutes of action. Octopus looks much better with sous vide than simmering in the pot.

[@GeoffTheChefOfficial]

Not too much trouble at all. The char at the end is everything 🙌🏽

[@gme_to_the_moon-v1p]

@@GeoffTheChefOfficial Can't beat that char. 😆
