We describe a Monte Carlo scheme for the grand canonical simulation study offluid phase equilibria in highly size-asymmetrical binary mixtures. The methodutilizes an expanded ensemble in which the insertion and deletion of largeparticles is accomplished {\em gradually} by traversing a series of states inwhich a large particle interacts only partially with the environment of smallparticles. Free energy barriers arising from interfacial coexistence states aresurmounted with the aid of multicanonical preweighting, the associated weightsbeing determined from the transition matrix. As an illustration, we presentresults for the liquid-vapour coexistence properties of a Lennard-Jones binarymixture having a 10:1 size ratio.
