Jags and ChillaxBBQ: What an amazing pair of bedfellows…
Jags Bistro Siglap became the next cooking event for the ChillaxBBQ crew in 2017; ChillaxBBQ, or 1st Jags & ChillaxBBQ. Our very first pop-up style event, offering Sunday Brunch, all-you-can-eat, and incredibly low pricing for drinks. Thanks to;
Tanya and the Jags crew for allowing us to do this Jags Bistro Siglap ChillaxBBQ.
Ollie for being the official photographer;
Amy and Ollie for being simply the very best servers in the history of time;
My family for losing yet another weekend day without them;
Of course the crew – Steve, and Ollie; but so importantly
ALL the amazing people that came by this day to dine at Jags Bistro Siglap on the three amigos nosh – THANK YOU!!!
So what did we do this day for Jags Bistro Siglap and our ChillaxBBQ? It was a very early start, especially after the rugby the day before, Phew! So about 06:30 prepping starts, off to wet markets, butchers, and grocers. Shattered already. 10:00 and off to Jags with BBQ, eskis, bags, knives, etc. Let the games commence.
Mr Pork, and two new additions for ChillaxBBQ – Cajun Pig Trotters, that we slow roast and then crisped up and handed out for the guests to carve themselves.
Here they are dry-rubbed. These were a really big hit, absolutely something we’ll go for again. Oh yeah, forgot to say that I studded them with garlic too.
This cracked me up at Cold Storage, a slight mishap regarding the placement of the yellow sticker methinks. Don’t think I’ll be eating many of them thanks!
MONSTER Wagyu steaks are seriously high-end good quality. And boy oh boy did this come out well. Just salt & cracked black pepper – that’s all you need!
Do you like wristbands? Pay for food at Jags Bistro Siglap and wear one with pride ha ha!
You ask you get. Tomahawks pretty please, oh go on then!
We took a foray into the world of seafood that day. Something different hey! Lime, garlic, and ginger BBQ prawns.
It’s 10:00 a.m. and Duck Dynasty is skewering prawns, in BLISTERING HEAT hmmmmm!
Signature satays are out again!
Cannot stop thinking of that Wagyu, well hello there you beautiful thing!
It’s nearly on, and we are ready ready ready!
Out comes my Teppanyaki grill – one of the best cooking items I have purchased, it is GENIUS.
Another addition for ChillaxBBQ this day is crispy bacon with maple syrup – it flew off the plate!
I wish you could appreciate how hot this was here at Jags Bistro Siglap, it was insane. Boiling bright sunshine, humidity, and of course lots of fire surrounding us from the two BBQs – OMG
What’s that saying; if pigs could fly? This is the maple syrup bacon, it literally did not touch the table. Bacon flying, hey presto!
It’s about to get busy. crew chatting running orders, and the Jags team get balloons up – the silver one is a #1 for the first Jags Bistro SiglapChillaxBBQ. You never know there may be a #2.
Check out those signature skewers, world-class we think!
The prawns came out really really well, of the skewers and on the plate, and then immediately off the plate!
Hello, there big boy! We slow roast these 2 at a time, so we had a constant supply of Tomahawks to char and serve. Delicious!
Signature sausage selections from SideCar! Superb as always!
The paprika-crackled pork skin is becoming a favorite now, the second time this!
Our signature roast pork belly was out in full force of course, and our Banh Mi’s were a major hit too today.
ALL the meat came out so well, we got many accolades for this today. Thank you, everyone!
We did two cheese fondues today at Jags Bistro Siglap, even Chris the magic cheese man, was in attendance. Again this fondu got rave reviews today, with many coming back to ask for more and more.
Let’s be having you – here comes the second go at ChillaxBBQ Chilli Challenge – today with a slight twist that we randomly place coolest and hottest – yes it is Russian Roulette time!
The amazing server, Amy Kennett, received so many compliments today from guests. Apparently, she was outstanding, making everyone feel welcome, informed, and engaged. Here she is with my mate Dan.
And the ChillaxBBQ Chili Challenge commences!
And they’re off…
Go on Toby get in there!!!
Little does Sami know, that he just picked The Ghost Chili. Whoopsy!
And it had the desired effect, loads and loads of laughing and smiling punters!
SUCCESS!!!
The much-needed wind down for the crew – shattered!
Plus Amy and Ollie. We could not have done this today without you guys, you were incredible, serving, prepping, and filming – INCREDIBLE work today!!!
And then a few very much-needed cold ones and a little letting down of hair, with the remaining guest of which there were many! End of the day, and an early night. So tired, Jags Bistro Siglap ChillaxBBQ is over and out!
But before we finish – here’s one more look at ChillaxBBQ Chili Challenge – in goes AJ.
