For the Ribeye Steak:

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Make the Parmesan Shells

    • Preheat your Ninja Woodfire Oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper or a silicone mat.
    • Scoop 1 heaped tablespoon of Parmesan onto the tray, spreading into 6-7cm circles. Leave space between each circle.
    • Bake for 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts and turns golden.
    • Carefully lift the Parmesan discs with a spatula and drape them over upside-down small bowls or shot glasses to shape them into shells. Allow to cool, then remove gently.
    • Reserve 50g of Parmesan for garnish.

  2. Step 2: Prepare the Ribeye Steak

    • Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Season lightly with salt.
    • Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Oven using the Gourmet Grill function. Grill the steaks on high for 2-3 minutes per side to develop a crust.
    • Switch to the smoker function, reducing the temperature to 120°C. Smoke the steaks to your desired doneness (54°C for medium-rare).
    • Let the steaks rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. Step 3: Assemble the Bites

    • Slice the rested steak thinly. Place 1-2 slices onto each Parmesan shell.
    • Add a whole sun-dried tomato on top of the steak.
    • Drizzle with Sriracha sauce.
    • Sprinkle with chives, parsley, and the reserved Parmesan for garnish.

Bit of a special one today ❤️🔥

Olivia and Oakley wanted to take over the Kamado Joe and make their own cooking video . . . so we made smoked & tallow-confit beef cheeks together.

And honestly, this is what it’s all about for me.

Getting kids outside. Around fire. Around food. Learning patience, confidence and where proper food actually comes from.

There is absolutely NO chance I’d have eaten beef cheeks at their age 😅

But when kids get involved in cooking outdoors, they become curious. They want to try things. Learn things. Experience things.

And somewhere between the smoke, the laughs and the chaos . . . core memories get made ❤️

First proper hike completed ✅

Big shoutout to @lads_project25 for a cracking day out in the Peak District.

This was my first real hike and my first ever visit to the Peak District — and what a place to start.

📍 Higger Tor, Burbage Edge & Padley Gorge Circular
🥾 7.2 miles
⛰️ 1,378ft elevation gain
⏱️ 4 hours 6 minutes
🐾 One very happy, very tired Labrador

12 lads turned up, most of us strangers at the start, but it didn’t feel like that for long. Non-stop chats, proper laughs, some deep conversations, a bit of scrambling, a few boggy moments, and views that made every climb worth it.

Groups like Lads Project matter.

No judgement. No pressure. Just good lads getting outside, keeping active, sharing stories, having a laugh, and supporting each other in a way that feels natural.

If you’re a bloke who’s been thinking about doing something like this, reach out to @lads_project25 and get involved.

Fresh air, good people, and a reminder that sometimes the best conversations happen while walking side by side.

I’ll definitely be joining them again soon.

TEMPER Smoked Pulled Lamb Flatbreads 🔥

2.6kg bone-in lamb shoulder from @thecateringbutcher , hit with TEMPER from @fourge.bbq , smoked low and slow, then pulled into fresh flatbreads with garlic yoghurt, pickled onions, herbs and charred lemon.

Bit more of an involved cook this one, but absolutely worth it.

I also used the @typhur_uk Sync Gold Dual for temps throughout the cook and, to be fair, the Sub-1G connection was solid. No problem getting through the lamb, wrapped in foil, inside the Kamado Joe, through a few walls, while I cracked on writing the full recipe for the website like the BBQ geek I apparently am.

Full recipe is here:

Enjoy!

DRAGON, edge of the sky.

Flt Lt Tom Nation, the 2026 RAF Typhoon Display Pilot, putting the Typhoon through its paces over Coningsby.

Tom’s name is now on the jet, the black flying suit is on, the helmet has been unveiled, and the 2026 display season is starting to feel very real.

The aircraft, the pilot, the team behind it — all coming together for what looks like it’s going to be an unbelievable season.

Fast, precise, aggressive, controlled . . . and absolutely breathtaking to watch.

Dirty-Seared Côte de Boeuf with Cowboy Butter 🔥

Picked up this absolute beauty from @mountainsfarmshop in East Heckington, Lincolnshire — proper local butcher, proper bit of beef.

This is the way I like to cook a big thick steak like a Côte de Boeuf / bone-in ribeye.

Cooked in the @kamadojoeuk over @bigkproductsltd lumpwood — and this bit matters: use good quality lumpwood, fully lit and burning clean. You want heat and crust, not a steak that tastes like a shed fire.

I also used some @fourge.bbq whisky oak we’re currently testing.

Temps tracked with the @meatermade , because guessing on a steak like this is how you turn dinner into financial regret.

Finished with cowboy butter, rested, sliced, juices back over the top.

Simple process. Big flavour. No bollocks.

Comment COWBOY and I’ll send you the link to my website with the full step-by-step guide for how I cook a steak like this, plus how I make the cowboy butter.

Hope this new step-by-step, no-bollocks format helps. 🔥

Spatchcock chicken on the Ninja FlexFlame 🔥

Kept it simple, kept it juicy, and hit it properly with SPARK rub by @fourge.bbq — bright, herby, lemony, and bang on for chicken.

Barbecue without the bollocks.

What should I cook next? 👀

This was, I believe, the last @raf_typhoondisplayteam display practice before Flt Lt Tom Nation’s PDA at RAF Coningsby later this week . . . and what a display to watch.

If all goes well, this is the final step before Tom begins public Typhoon displays around the country and beyond for the 2026 season. Living near RAF Coningsby means I’ve been lucky enough to watch so many of these Typhoon display practices and workups as they’ve built towards this point, and honestly, seeing the progress, precision, confidence and sheer power of the jet has been incredible.

So Flt Lt Tom Nation – DRAGON01, if you ever happen to see this, go absolutely smash your PDA mate. You’re a legend. Go DRAGON.
