Did you use any kind of mop or spray for them? I ask because I've been thinking about this thread all evening, making myself hungry over the thought of spares done like this with maybe a butter and Guinness basting spray.

Does your uncle have any adverse reactions to beer/stout, Sea Dog? The Guinness and butter spray could build up to a nice glaze.
