Never kill a Huntsman spider they are harmless and will eat the spiders you don't want.

Remember, he was eating out and relying on takeaway and restaurants where it's sometimes difficult to find decent "bangers and mash."

Apparently he was in the deli section because he mentioned salami. 🤷‍♀️

[@hkuiper100]

Australia always had cheap beef and lamb historically Lee, so we have beef sausages. Now pork is out cheapest meat (or chicken) and pork sausages are becoming more common, maybe because of the Brits here too. But Aussie mostly have beef sausages.

[@waynelevett3632]

When a red back spider bites. You will feel the pain instantly and it will seriously hurt for 36 hours. A bottle of bourbon or similar will help you endure the pain. Yes we have many big hunter spiders carrying their babies. They sparkle like a big diamond when you shine a light on all the thousands of eyes looking at you 😂. I live right next to Darlington in the hills and it's rampant with all our wildlife.

[@user-sp1ri]

in many cases cooking on a barbecue is nearly a daily routine, its just an extension of the kitchen with less dishes...

[@citizenpb]

Fun facts. There's been only one spider related death in Australia since 1979. But around 10 people per year die from bee stings.

[@rodpettet2819]

Shrimps are in the US. They're called prawns in Oz. Huntsman spiders are an asset in the house as they keep down other pests. They can grow quite big but are harmless. 40 years ago it was difficult to find an edible snag is Oz, but over the years they've got better. I moved to the Philippines 5 years ago but before I left Coles supermarkets had a decent range of snags. Black pudding could be hard to find, but a butcher in Brisbane sold a decent pork pie.

[@philippacrowe8499]

in Sth Aust Foodland the mighty Sth Aussie supermarket stock Black Pudding, White Pudding and a GREAT selection of bangers from Slapes and Barossa

[@aldunlop4622]

I'm absolutely drooling watching this. Can't beat a great Aussie Barbie. Also, sausages are called Snags in Australia. I used to love the old days when a barbie was just a sheet of mild steel over a few old bricks with actual firewood, like a good Eucalyptus, Iron Bark or some sort of Box, it really adds to the flavour of the meat when the smoke gets into it. Also, it's not a true Aussie barbie if you don't splash a bit of your beer on the meat while it's cooking haha.

[@ScatManAust]

Sitting here in front of the Pc at 11:55 pm looking at your" barrrrrrby "and just had to go cook something. Was content before but was starting to gobb up and had instant hunger. Mind power, it's a strong thing. That meat looked beautiful. Lapp it up Lee

[@keithphilbin3054]

Wow, nice looking butchers, the beef and steaks look top notch and those sausages... Moroccan or tzatiki lamb for me please !

[@annebaker9408]

I think the thing about sausages in Australia is this……very few restaurants sell them. The reason is that they are so abundant and easy to do at home that they simply can’t compete. It would be like a restaurant selling ‘toast with jam’, everyone can do it at home, no one would order it so why would they make it?

[@AussiePom]

Well my local butcher is thriving because the supermarket doesn't stock certain types of meat. We can't get sausage mince or thick sausages and all too often hamburger and rissoles aren't available either. We're told the same old BS that it's a slow seller so we don't bother stocking it. So the local butcher it is for they always have what I want. It's also fresher too for there's no telling how long the supermarket's meat has been in storage for.

[@alexgraham39]

Would love to see more content on the East coast again. Melbourne, Brisbane, N’Qld. Sydney vids were brilliant.

[@stevegraham3817]

I guess BBQs are different in different parts of Oz. I'm used to bread rolls, we don't usually do fried corn, potato is either in a potato bake in winter, or a potato salad in summer, and hamburger patties/flattened rissoles usually make an appearance as well.

[@rhodaborrocks1654]

It's called a braai here in South Africa and is usually done over wood coals, the idea being that the wood burning phase is beer time. What often happens however is, as soon as the coals look about ready to use, another sack of wood goes on and another couple of six packs of beer appear from nowhere, and there can be several iterations of this procedure. There is one family we used to visit where we never expected to actually get the meat on the braai, they'd be too rat faced, so we'd take our meat home with us and grill it for lunch the next day.

[@richardjohn7991]

Another person who knows what a real braai / BBQ is .👍

You can’t eat butchers meat, better than any shop meat. Enjoying this already Lee.

[@phenogen8125]

Way to go is catch your own fish; fillet it, smoke it and BBQ promptly over charcoal for the best experience. Gas is merely convenience and does not compare to a good char grill in my book. Wagyu with a light red-oak smoke and Pork with a red-oak and apple and cherry wood smoke always gets well received and long slow sixteen hour cooks reward patience and palate. Perfection is good enough.

Also usually have lamb chops on the barbie as well.

Dont forget about the international food hall in Northbridge. Opposite outback Jacks you totally forgot about The steak you had there

[@stewartgrant7724]

Great Video guy tell Paul he is a good Chef. Well it was amazing how far you had to go to find a butchers that place you went to showed lovely fresh and good qualty food. Yes it is true that buthers are a dying trade here in the UK I doubt you will find a butcher as like anything else there are so many shop etc are closing down as not only is it to expensive people cannot afford this. That is why when you go to the supermarkets you will find everything is all in packs now and even those lovely area where you could get fresh meats and cheeses all these Deli counters have been closed down so all you will find now is what is in pack form. Another reason for this is the farmers get no help from the government and prices they are offered by these top supermarket do not cover there costs so that is why a lot of farmers are saying enough is enough it is just not pracrical to continue. I expect a lot of the meat and cheese products are imported anyway.

[@chrisaris8756]

You might not have butchers up north, but we have loads of here in East Sussex. Our local one usually wins butcher of the year and is packed all day every day and mobbed at Xmas. Two new butchers have also opened up recently as well.

A few Bottlo,s did sell Kalgoorlie Stout though. You will struggle to find Fosters anywhere other than UK or USA. XXXX is everywhere but its a mid strength beer.

We went back over and travelled the west coast last year from Kununara down to Esperance and I bought a case of bush chook for old times sake - I thought it was pretty ordinary I think I will stay with my Great Northern. Its not a beer you often see over here on the east coast in the bottle shops you can get most of the other interstate beers but Emu seems to be scarce.

Sadly you're spot on with the butcher dilemma....cost of living crisis and bulk buy cheap supermarket rubbish or support independents offering quality products but at a cost.
