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.

Booked it the night before. Turned out to be one of the best little trips we’ve had.

@pinecones_cc is just over an hour from home, so with the @tentbox already on the car, we just went.

The Sandringham Royal Estate is only about a 30-minute walk from the site and the play park is HUGE. Because we walked over, no parking charge either. A few hours out for free and the kids loved it . . . can’t argue with that 😂

Then back to site for fish and chips, a few drinks in the bar, frisbee, board games and movies in the TentBox.

This is exactly why I keep it on the car.

Last-minute adventures are what it’s all about. ❤️

AD | Pizza dough has been my nemesis for YEARS . . . so I basically stopped bothering. 🍕🔥

No matter what recipe I tried, I could never quite get it right.

Well . . . turns out I don’t have that problem anymore. 😅

@greatballs.of.flour sent me their Essential Box and, apart from your toppings of choice, it contains everything you need to make 12 pizzas for just over £40.

For context, a Domino’s round here is about £14 a pizza. We enjoy it at the time . . . then about an hour later we’re all sat there questioning our life choices. 😂

So instead, I dragged the three kids outside and we made our own.

Were they perfectly round? Absolutely not.

Was there flour everywhere? Obviously.

Did we have a laugh, get the kids involved in cooking and make some genuinely epic pizzas? 100%.

And that was the bit I loved most.

The dough was an absolute joy to work with — genuinely easy enough for the kids to stretch and shape themselves — and everyone got to make exactly what they wanted.

We spread it over a couple of days, made a load of different pizzas and obviously finished things properly with a chocolate and marshmallow pizza. 🤤

For just over £40 for 12 pizzas, this was a seriously good way to turn dinner into something we actually did together.

And finally . . . pizza dough and I might have made peace. 😂🍕

The Essential Box was kindly sent to me by Great Balls of Flour for me to try and create some content with. All thoughts are my own.
If my 3-year-old daughter could get outside and cook . . . what’s stopping you? 🔥

This popped up in my memories today from 2021, and it proper got me.

My kids are my world. Being a single, full-time dad to three is stressful, chaotic and rarely goes to plan . . . but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’ve always dragged them into this outdoor cooking journey with me, and looking back at videos like this reminds me why.

The cooks get forgotten.

The recipes change.

The kit changes.

But the memories? They stick.

This one also takes me right back to the early days of Smoke & Sear, when @bradleysmoker were the first brand to ever reach out and back what I was doing.

I’ve never forgotten that.

And funny enough, I still use my Bradley all the time today — especially for hot holding. Absolute workhorse.

Five years on, the Moink Balls are long gone.

But this little moment?

That’s priceless. ❤️🔥

MEATUP 2026 . . . what a weekend. 🔥

Our first ever festival as FOURGE.

In just two days we served 617 customers . . . a number that genuinely blows our minds.

As someone who’s usually hiding behind a screen or an iPhone, I wasn’t prepared for just how tough festival life is. Massive respect to everyone who does this every weekend—I was a broken man by the end of day one! 😂

The best part? Meeting so many of you, seeing people wearing FOURGE merch, hearing incredible feedback, and watching a brand that’s only a year old become part of something so special.

To everyone who queued, supported us, shared a laugh or simply stopped by to say hello . . . thank you. ❤️

If this was @meatupfestival first year, we genuinely can’t wait to see what the future holds.

617 transactions.
One unforgettable weekend.
We’ll be back. 🔥

THANK YOU to everyone for the love you showed us this weekend. Our first-ever festival as FOURGE was absolutely non-stop!

I’m physically and mentally ruined… but I’d do it all again. Maybe not next weekend though 😂

Seriously, your support genuinely means the world to us.

THREE BBQS. THREE FAMILY DINNERS. ONE BOX. 🔥

This is the BBQ Basics Box from Village Butchers, and rather than cooking the whole lot for one massive BBQ, I wanted to see how far we could actually make it go.

The answer? Three completely different dinners for me and the three kids — with plenty to go around.

🥩 Inside the box:

• 1kg Korean-style beef short ribs (Galbi / flanken cut)
• 2 x 10–12oz rump steaks
• 4 x 110g beef steak burgers
• 6 traditional English sausages
• 1kg butterfly chicken breast
• 4 lamb kebabs
• 2 pork chops

We spread it across three nights, kept the sides simple and cooked outside each evening.

🔥 Night one — Olivia joined me for burgers and sausages on the Ninja FlexFlame.

🔥 Night two — Oakley helped cook the rump steaks and butterfly chicken over charcoal on the Weber Go Anywhere.

🔥 Night three — Oscar joined me on the Kamado Joe for Korean short ribs, pork chops and lamb kebabs.

Nothing overly complicated. No expensive sides. No turning dinner into an all-day cook.

Just decent meat, simple sides and three proper family dinners.

BBQ doesn’t always need to be a big event. Sometimes it’s just dinner — cooked outside.

For clarity: Village Butchers sent me the BBQ Basics Box free of charge. I decided to turn it into three family dinners and cook each one with my kids.
