Found these from Woolworths in Cranbourne North, Victoria today. Not sure if it is valid for this store only or a national/state-wide type deal, but just thought I'd post it anyway.
Just 40 cents for an 8 pack of chilli infused skewers. Regular price is $4.95
Fire up the barbie and get cooking!
Found in the BBQ accessories aisle.
Unsure at this stage, I'm going to be cooking chicken skewers tonight, so can report back.
Anyway, this is what the packet says:
"Nothing happens until the meat hits the heat. Use 1 skewer per 350g meat. With roasts or large portions of meat keep skewer within 1cm of the surface to allow for good flavour activation"
"Ingredients - Vegetable oil, natural flavours (essential oils and extracts)"
Also down the back at Chelsea (VIC) Woolies for a similar price. Skeptical as to how much you would notice unless you left the meat on them for a while for the chemicals to leach out ;)
They had them at Beechboro (WA). I wouldn't (didn't) even pay 40c for them.
Seems to be nationwide. Must be trying to get rid of them.
I was skeptical and bought some a while ago, don't even bother. Hardly gives much flavour.
out of date ….
Fantastic idea if it works.
Well…I'm from Wiltshire, England, and I've never heard of Wiltshire Chilli!
We have stuff like wiltshire ham, and cider. West country stuff.
I'm from Australia, and Wiltshire is a popular bbq brand here.
It's not Wiltshire Chilli persay, its Wiltshire bbq skewers (which have been sold for a long time) that are now available in chilli.
even at 5c a skewer, not as good as the half price Nando's deals.
Well, I had them tonight. They were pretty decent. Not too much flavour as such, but they certainly added a heap of spice to the meat. Can recommend, especially for 40c.
How long are they?
I'm after 50cm long and preferably with no essence
Probably around 25-30cm.
Do they transfer much flavour?
