Cobb Cookery, A Modern Miracle
Posted by HealthFeb 8
The Hairy Bikers, from the UK, know all about it and so does Chef David from South Africa. This ‘Chef’ing trio have known about it for several years and use it on a regular basis on TV and video. If you take into account the proven facts, without hearsay or other distractions, there is no wonder that the Cobb was hailed by Time magazine as the ‘invention of the year’ when it was introduced. I don‘t intend to make this a long article, so I’ll simply state the facts.

?’Cobb cookery’ is a phrase that occurred naturally in the language. To say that such a compact and lightweight cooker can do so much, sounds too much like hype. Except, at the end of this article, I’ll offer proof. On the other hand you could just watch the ‘Hairy Bikers’ on British TV.
