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.

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.
