I allways wanted to make a video of making paella, but it was too difficult, so pictures will have to suffice!
Sorry it was not on the BGE, but i have this special burner for paella that makes it so easy.

Ingredients:
Large U12 shrimp depending on how many people are being fed
750gr of Pork rib cut in small pieces
750gr of Chiken wings, drums
125gr Spanish Chorizo
3 Green bell peppers diced
3 Large white Onions blended
3 large Tomatos blended
500gr Baby Squid sliced in rings
500gr Baby octopus whole
Clams as many as you like(pre cook)
Small Artichokes cut in halves(pre cooked)
Azafran8(boiled in 2 cups of water)
Chiken broth
Clam broth(from prevously cooked clams filtered with coffee filters)
