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.

Today at 10:28am (Tuesday 22nd April 2025) I witnessed the best @typhoondisplayteam of the year — 100% the best I’ve seen!

Squadron Leader Nathan Shawyer absolutely smashed it over @rafconingsby 

There I was . . . iPhone in one hand, Wren (the dog) strapped to my waist, being swarmed by flies (note to self: change aftershave), trying to capture the magic.

Worth every buzz and bite — turn your sound up and enjoy this beauty!

P.S. Don’t worry, the dog you can hear barking in the video occasionally wasn’t Wren . . . 

Others had come out to watch the display with their lovely dogs too — one clearly less keen on the noise from the jets haha.
When the kids ask for smashburgers . . . who am I to argue?
And being kids, they like ’em just so. No greenery in sight – ha!

Toasted @stpierreuk brioche buns, a slather of @angusandoink Comeback sauce, double smash patties with properly melted cheese, topped off with our own bacon jam – made fresh, same way every single time. A proper house favourite. Bit of crispy onions on top and that’s it. Simple. Smashy. And they all leave with full bellies and big smiles – that’s what it’s all about.

All cooked on the mighty @blackstoneproducts griddle, and yep . . . even air-fried the chips while making the jam and burgers. We don’t mess about.

First cook on the new Blackstone – had to break it in with a kid-friendly Full English!

Went with the classics: sausages, hash browns, bacon, beans, fried eggs, griddled tomatoes, fried bread and of course… potato waffles (because kids).

Set the Blackstone up with different zones for each bit – sausages and waffles in the hotter section, eggs and bread on the low zone. Used the integrated air fryer basket for the hash browns and the warm drawer came in clutch for holding bits while the rest cooked.

Cooking on the Blackstone is FAST.

You’ve got to juggle it all a bit, but it’s mad satisfying once you get into the rhythm. This wasn’t a fancy cook – just a proper hearty breakfast to get used to the griddle.

The kids? They rated it 10,000,000 out of 10, which either means I’m a breakfast legend or they need a maths lesson.

Either way, I’ll take it.

Plenty more cooks coming – this was just the start.

🍍🔥 Pineapple Express Pulled Pork — with shatter-crisp crackling so savage, you’ll hear it from three streets over.

Massive love to @villagebutchers for sending me this absolute unit of a pork leg (9kg of bone-in, rind-on beauty). Injected it with pineapple rum, spun it low ‘n slow on the rotisserie, then crowned it with crispy shards of crackling like some kind of BBQ king 👑

Cooked this beast on the @everdurebyhestonblumenthal Hub 2 — first time I’ve fired it up in ages. Truth be told, I was sent it back in May 2023 to review . . . but with the house move, life chaos and all that jazz, it’s been sat in the garage gathering dust. Good job I kept hold of it — it’s the only kit I own that could handle the sheer size and weight of this bad boy.
