For the Quinoa Salad:

Instructions

  1. Step 1: The Marinating Magic

    In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the lamb marinade. Add the leg of scored lamb, ensuring it’s fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight

  2. Step 2: Gremolata Goodness

    For the gremolata, combine all the ingredients in another bowl. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. Step 3: Aubergine Anticipation

    Slice the aubergines lengthwise, about 1/2-inch thick. Brush the slices with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and set aside until you’re ready to grill.

  4. Step 4: Lamb Preparation

    Remove the lamb from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature for about an hour before you start cooking.

  5. Step 5: Everdure Ignition

    Fire up the Everdure Hub II. Place the charcoal on the stainless steel insert and press the ignition button. Within approximately 10 minutes, the charcoal will be glowing hot and starting to develop a layer of ash. Once it’s completely covered with white ash, spread it out gently to one side, directly under where you’ll place the lamb on the rotisserie, and add more charcoal on top and around the existing layer. Gradually continue this process until you have the desired amount of fuel in the tray.

  6. Step 6: Lamb Love

    Attach the lamb to the rotisserie rod and secure it.

  7. Step 7: Lamb Luxuriation

    Start the rotisserie and cook the lamb for approximately 2.5-3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 60-65°C for medium-rare or 70-75°C for medium.

  8. Step 8: Quinoa Quest

    While the lamb is cooking, rinse the quinoa under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the quinoa on the grilling area of your Everdure Hub II using a heatproof pan. Add the water or stock, cover, and let it simmer until the quinoa is cooked and fluffy. Move the quinoa to the warming cupboard to keep it warm.

  9. Step 9: Veggie Venture

    At the same time, slice your vegetables and toss them in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. If the pieces are large enough to not fall through the grill grates, you can place them directly on the grill over the coals. Cook them until they’re tender and lightly caramelized. If the pieces are smaller, use a grill basket or a heatproof pan. Once they’re done, move the vegetables to the warming cupboard to keep them warm.

  10. Step 10: Aubergine Adventure

    While the lamb is still cooking, grill the aubergine slices on the direct grilling area for about 3-4 minutes per side, until they have nice grill marks and are tender. Move the grilled aubergines to the warming cupboard to keep them warm.

  11. Step 11: Lamb Leisure

    Once the lamb is cooked to your preferred doneness, move it to an oven tray, cover it loosely with foil, and let it rest for about 20-30 minutes before carving.

  12. Step 12: Quinoa Quality

    Combine the cooked and cooled quinoa with the roasted vegetables, add the fresh basil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix well.

  13. Step 13: Aubergine Assembly

    Lay out the grilled aubergine slices on a plate and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese, pomegranate seeds, and fresh parsley on top.

  14. Step 14: Serving Spectacular

    Slice the rested lamb and serve it with a dollop of the pomegranate-coriander gremolata. Serve the grilled aubergines and quinoa salad on the side. Enjoy your delicious and impressive meal!

Note

  • Flare-Up Management: While rotisserie cooking, watch out for flare-ups from the dripping fats. Keep a spray bottle of water handy to manage them.
  • Resting is Key: Allowing the lamb to rest after cooking is crucial. It helps redistribute the juices, ensuring every bite is moist and flavourful.
  • Cooking Temp and Duration: Adjust the cooking temperature and duration according to the size of the lamb and your preferred doneness.

🔥 THE LAZY BUZZARDS BBQ 2026 🔥

Some weekends you enjoy . . .

Some weekends you remember.

This was definitely one of those.

Fifteen teams. Two days. Incredible food. New friendships. A bit of healthy competition . . .and an evening BBQ Olympics that had teams and judges laughing together long after the turn-ins were done.

A huge thank you to Alan & Jo for creating something that’s so much more than a BBQ competition. It’s a weekend built around great food, great people and a genuine BBQ community.

Massive respect to every team that competed too. Thanks for letting me wander around with a camera all weekend and capture what UK BBQ is really about.

This is the second BBQ competition I’ve attended now—back-to-back—and I’ve genuinely caught the bug. I’d love to shine a bigger spotlight on this side of the UK BBQ scene next year.

Could you see yourself competing one day? Let me know in the comments . . .👇🔥

#TheLazyBuzzardsBBQ #UKBBQ #BBQCompetition #LiveFireCooking #BBQCommunity
Six years ago I stepped into the UK BBQ scene.

I had no idea that buying a smoker during lockdown would completely change my life.

Since then I’ve shared 100+ free recipes, created over 1,000 pieces of content, surpassed ONE MILLION website views, welcomed 600,000+ active users to Smoke & Sear, and built social profiles, groups and communities with 70,000+ members and followers.

But the numbers aren’t what I’m most proud of.

It’s the friendships, the community, and seeing more and more people across the UK discovering outdoor cooking.

A massive thank you to every brand that’s believed in me over the last six years. Whether you’ve trusted me with your products, invited me to events, or somehow flown me to Nashville . . . (still can’t quite believe that one! ❤️)

Then there’s @fourge.bbq . . . 

Starting a business with three great lads I met through the BBQ community is genuinely a dream come true.

It’s still early days, but seeing so many FOUNDERS backing us, our rubs selling so well, and people proudly wearing FOURGE merch honestly means more than I can put into words. Pellets, fuel and plenty more are just around the corner, and I can’t wait to cook for so many of you at @meatupfestival in just a few weeks.

Thank you to everyone who’s followed my journey over the last six years.

I’m just one bloke trying to do his small part to help push UK BBQ forward.

Here’s to the next chapter. 🔥🇬🇧

#UKBBQ #OutdoorCooking #PassTheFlame
First time guest judging at Whole Hog 2026 with @comp_bbq_uk . . . and what a weekend🔥

Six rounds. Two days. Nine teams. A LOT of pork.

Honestly, it opened my eyes to a whole other side of UK BBQ. So much skill, creativity, graft and proper passion for cooking over fire.

Massive respect to Comp BBQ UK for building something special, and huge respect to @weberuk and cranswickplc for everything they do to support this event and help the competition BBQ scene grow.

UK BBQ is gathering serious momentum… and this definitely won’t be the last BBQ comp I attend.

Who’s ever thought about getting a few mates together and entering a BBQ team? 👀🔥

#CompBBQUK #WholeHog2026 #UKBBQ #BBQCommunity #CompetitionBBQ
This started as a daft little comp I set up in the UK BBQ WhatsApp Community to get the regional groups talking, cooking, meeting up and generally giving each other grief.

Most regions went suspiciously quiet.

But two actually stepped up.

SOUTH vs NORTH

The South came in swinging with a proper land, sea and fire feast — venison haunch wrapped in nori, reverse-seared smoked lamb, lobster, scallops, shell-on prawns, Sussex mackerel, monkfish, black sea bream, focaccia, fresh green sauce and a Sussex Smokie finished with a breadcrumb crust.

Then the North answered with an absolute monster board — rack of lamb, black pudding burnt ends with Newcastle Brown Ale sauce, sticky pork ribs, Cumberland sausage, smoked chuck scouse, fish and chips, roast beef, ribeye steaks, venison burgers, grilled potato skewers, sweet Yorkshire pudding with bone marrow crème pâtissière and smoked sticky toffee pudding with bourbon ice cream.

And honestly, this is exactly what it was meant to be about.

People getting together. Cooking outdoors. Making new mates. Sharing ideas. Having a laugh. Creating something that represents where they’re from.

But… there can only be one winner.

To vote, comment:

SOUTH

or

NORTH

I’ll somehow collate the votes from Instagram and Facebook on Monday 6th July, and we’ll find out who takes the regional glory for 2026.

More details on both cooks are on the website, and you can also join the UK BBQ WhatsApp Community there if you fancy getting involved. It really is a cracking bunch.

Now then…

Who gets the glory?

SOUTH or NORTH?
Second walk out with the Lads Project today and honestly… what a proper day.

Hot as anything, big Peak District views, Thor’s Cave, River Dove, miles in the legs, plenty of laughs and just a really good bunch of lads getting outside and doing something positive.

No pressure, no awkwardness, no forced deep chats — just fresh air, good people, proper conversation when it comes, and a reminder that getting out of your usual routine does a lot.

Any lads want to join the next monthly social walk? Drop me a DM and I’ll send you the link to the WhatsApp group where it’s all planned.

DRAGON01 over Coningsby 🔥

It’s been a few weeks since I last watched Flt Lt Tom Nation put the Typhoon through its paces over RAF Coningsby — but the second I heard today’s slot announced on the NOTAM, there was absolutely no chance I was missing it.

And what a display.

I may have lost half of it to the sun, and the other half to Tom flying so low he disappeared behind the trees . . . but wow. 😂

The speed, power and agility of the Typhoon is ridiculous — but the way Tom handles it is something else entirely.

Huge respect to Tom and the whole Typhoon Display Team behind the scenes.

Absolutely epic.
