Quartered Charlotte potatoes lengthways, roasted in rapeseed oil in the MMX for a bit, then added a hint of truffle oil, Dizzy Pig IPA and fresh rosemary partway through, and roasted more until done. Full recipe is here:

Went amazingly well with smash burgers cooked in the LBGE:


Cooking in the MM, I used a Lodge CI pan with the handle cut off:


As usual, SWMBO likes the arty overhead shot as well:


Thanks for looking! :)

    @Roebuck another angle to try is exemplified by this sort of (side) dish - you can cook on two Eggs at the same time, wedges on one and smash burgers on the other. Why is that good? Because you and your wife can both relax in the garden without needing to pop in and out to check on what's cooking in the kitchen. :D

    Cheers folks, had these last night with double cut pork chops rubbed with DP Tsunami Spin, the combo of pork + rub + truffle wedges was truly outstanding.

    Looks good.

    When we want to do potato wedges. Instead of knives, we use apple cutter. Cut the potato in half. Then apple cutter to make nice wedges.  I cut the core in half. 

    Then proceed to roast.

    Neat trick, that would work nicely on Maris Piper or King Edward potatoes as they are rather larger than the smaller, slim-lined Charlotte potatoes that I used. I'll try this again with Maris Piper and our apple corer.
