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.

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year . . . 

2025 has been a huge personal challenge but with the kids by my side there is no obstacle we can’t overcome . . . and we’ve made sure we’ve had plenty of fun on the way.

I’ve been slacking off a little with the ‘U.K. BBQ scene’ lately and content creation . . . but behind the scenes I’ve been working on something honestly HUGE and within a month or two I’ll be able to share something that, well, is going to change the U.K BBQ game for sure!  I’m excited just thinking about it . . . 

I want to thank all those who’ve been checking in lately and the thousands and thousands of people who still rely on my Website and WhatsApp Community to help support their own BBQ journey . . . It still amazes me how many of you use what I’ve created.

2026 . . . Let’s do this!  It’s gonna be a wild ride!
Today marks one year since I relaunched the Smoke & Sear website — and honestly, I thought it wouldn’t survive.

With everyone jumping to AI for recipes and reviews, I genuinely expected my little BBQ site to fade away.

But you proved me wrong.

Massively wrong.

Here are 10 epic facts from the first 12 months:

🔥 Nearly 180,000 new people visited the site — enough to fill Wembley twice.

🔥 People from 100+ countries used the site this year.

🔥 The USA alone sent 51,000+ visitors.

🔥 Perfect Pulled Pork was read 32,947 times.

🔥 Ninja content smashed 100,000+ views across Woodfire & FlexFlame reviews.

🔥 Pages were loaded hundreds of thousands of times overall.

🔥 The UK BBQ Events 2025 page hit 7,200+ readers.

🔥 Brisket content pulled 13,000+ views… and I’ve only cooked TWO briskets in my entire life. 😂

🔥 Even the 404 page somehow got 8,406 views.

🔥 And my honest, unsponsored reviews were read over 92,000 times — real testing that people actually trust.

I can’t thank you enough for reading, cooking, sharing, messaging, and keeping this whole thing alive.

In a year where everyone said websites were dead . . . you showed me that real cooks, real stories, and real honesty still matter.

Here’s to year two — bigger, hotter, smokier, and even more ridiculous. 🔥❤️

Coffee-Infused Beef Short Ribs slathered in a bourbon & maple sauce that was so good I nearly licked the plate clean . . . twice.

Rich, sticky, smoky, sweet, boozy — proper grown-up BBQ that hits different.

🔥 The real star though? That sauce.

Here’s how you make it — trust me, you’ll wanna bookmark this one:

🧪 Bourbon & Maple BBQ Sauce

	•	160g Maple Syrup
	•	80g @woodfordreserve Bourbon
	•	60g Ketchup
	•	60g Brown Sugar
	•	4 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
	•	4 tsp @norfolk_smoke_pit ‘Brew & Briskets’ Rub

Chuck it all in a pan, simmer it down, and let the magic happen. It’s sticky, boozy BBQ gold.

📸 Would I make these again? Absolutely.

⏪ Did I cook these exact ribs 4 years ago to the day? You bet I did.
1 year living next door to RAF Coningsby . . . and what a year it’s been.

Didn’t miss a single Typhoon display practice, caught every Red Arrows pass I could, and those Lancaster moments over the garden will always feel special.

Here’s a little montage of just some of the magic I’ve seen this year.

Can’t wait to see what 2026 brings. ✈️🔥
Not just cooked . . . this tomahawk was forged in fire.

Reverse-cooked low ‘n slow, then straight-up dirty seared right on the coals for that primal crust. Finished with a fat slice of cowboy butter — melted over the top with a chunk of red-hot charcoal.

Flavour? Savage.
Style? Full caveman.
Crust? Absolute filth.

Too early for a Christmas-themed turkey cook? Maybe.

But with Thanksgiving just around the corner and festive planning in full swing . . . now feels like the perfect time to drop this belter.

Smoked, brined, and slathered in herby garlic butter – this wood-fired turkey’s an absolute showstopper.

Full cook on the Kamado Joe. Full flavour. Full-on festive vibes. 🎄🔥
