For the Lamb

For the Crumb

For the Greek-Style Potatoes

Instructions

  1. Preparing the Crumb
    • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
    • Add the minced garlic and finely chopped onion, cooking for a few minutes until softened.
    • Stir in the chopped rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook for another minute and remove from heat.
    • Combine the mixture with the fresh breadcrumbs in a bowl. Set aside.
  2. Searing the Lamb
    • Season the rack of lamb all over with salt and pepper.
    • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a clean skillet over high heat.
    • Sear the lamb for 1-2 minutes on all sides, then remove from heat.
    • Brush the lamb with mustard and roll in the breadcrumb mixture until evenly coated.
    • Cover the bones with foil to prevent charring.
  3. Cooking the Lamb
    • Preheat your BBQ or smoker to 175°C (350°F).
    • Roast the rack, bone side down, in the skillet until it reaches an internal temperature of 60°C (140°F) for medium doneness.
    • Remove from heat and loosely cover with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  4. Preparing the Greek-Style Potatoes
    • Boil the chopped potatoes for about 10 minutes until soft but not mushy. Drain and let them steam dry in the colander.
    • Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the potatoes, crushing them slightly, and cook for about 6 minutes, turning occasionally, until they have a nice brown crust.
    • Add the sliced red onion, crushed garlic, dried oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook for another 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
    • Remove from heat and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese, lemon zest, and chopped fresh parsley.

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.

Wanna try it yourself? Full step-by-step recipe is live now:
