Well done fella's Thumbs UpHug

Really cool @Pcj - glad it worked out for you mate.

@Bazza - not sure what magic foil is, but here in Aussie we get proper catering foil which is heavy duty stuff - not that tissue paper you find over there.
I've been in Whangaparaoa for the last two months and it's tough to try find suitable replacement products for many things - not to mention at an affordable price. WOW - food is expensive here!

As an aside - The theory of the shiny side inside is that shiny reflects heat, hence putting it inside. At any rate, just passing on what I was told. Do it your way - whatever works for you.

@RockCrashing - go for it mate.
It's really good.

@lawabidingpoacher - brother, you win the internet for the day!
That looks AMAZING!
Well done Sir - take a well deserved bowTongue

Very happy with the stuffed pumpkin experience Thumbs Up
I've made the stuffing of mixture we like, smoke bacon, spicy chorizo mince, mushrooms, jalapeño, chickpeas +++...
It took 2h 30m to cook, last hour wrapped in foil at 350f/176C
Great flavour of sweet pumpkin with spicy stuffing. 
Didn't get much smoke flavour but it was great weather for outdoor cooking & some beer WinkLOL

Jaapie, the magic foil is a non-stick mono foil, very nice product, more expensive and is in some cases very useful.
But when using lots, i would recommend thick long roll of catering foil... attn; Bazza

Cool - thanks for that.

Will have a look for it - planning on sticky chicken wings and non-stick foil sounds sensible.

All done... lets have a nice breakfast



While slicing the bacon for b-fast i got distracted ... what, still haven't got sold Shocked



So trying to balance the salty bacon for b-fast with some pouched eggs, mushrooms & capsicum Cool
