One of our more unusual requests. An American client has asked me to feed his creative team for lunch tomorrow. It’s a surprise for their hard work. He specified smoked turkey cooked on a rotisserie accompanied by mac & Cheese, our special coleslaw, biscuits and gravy. Finished with key lime pie and pecan pie. A great American menu. But the turkey is certainly the king.  We used charcoal for the fire and Oak and Apple wood for the smoke. It Looks fantastic.

Making one of signature American style pies. This one is a Key Lime pie with the lovely freshness of lime and the sweetness of piled high meringue. All real winner on the Deli Truck and it usually sells out in minutes.

After making a butter and biscuit base, then we make a loose custard of lime juice, lime zest, eggs yolks, condensed milk is poured into the biscuit case. And then the piping begins
