Margot Janse’s Love of the Big Green Egg

Need some Easter inspiration? Look out for the Food and Home Entertaining April edition to see how 2012 Chef of the Year, Margot Janse, takes outdoor cooking to the next level.

Margot’s list of local and international awards is truly impressive. Herself voted EAT OUT Chef of the Year, The Tasting Room at Le Quartier Francais, of which she is executive chef, came second in the Restaurant of the Year category. On a global scale, Margot’s restaurant has consistently appeared in the San Pellegrino Top Restaurants awards since 2002.

Her sticky beef short ribs recipe is lipsmackingly delicious and not too “cheffy” for a novice cook to try, if you’re cooking them on a Big Green Egg, of course. We recommend this as a special Mother’s Day feast the whole family can enjoy!
