🌴🔥 Curry Goat with Rice ‘n’ Peas & Caribbean Dumplings 🔥🌴
Here’s a little taste of the Caribbean to brighten your day! This slow-cooked curry goat is packed with bold island spices, served with traditional rice ‘n’ peas and crispy fried dumplings. It’s hearty, comforting, and absolutely packed with flavour.
I cooked this beauty on my trusty OzPig back in the day – such a fun and versatile bit of kit! I don’t have one anymore due to a big life change and relocation, but the memories of cooking on it are still golden. If you’re into outdoor cooking, check them out: @ozpiguk and their Aussie roots @ozpig_au
The fire for this cook was powered by the awesome @planetfriendlyfirewood Love Logs – keeping the heat steady and the vibe eco-friendly!

If you try this one, tag me – I’d love to see your plates! 🌟

🔥 Inferno Adana Bombs – The Finger Food Twist on Kebabs! 🔥
Turning classic kebabs into finger food? YES, please! These smoky, spiced lamb bombs with a molten chilli yogurt centre are a total flavour explosion. I reckon even @ollie_eats would tip his hat to these beauties. 🙌
The gooey centre? That’s the real MVP. Freezing the filling first made it so much easier to wrap and kept it perfectly molten while cooking. A little prep, big payoff!
The inspiration hit when I found some old Adana seasoning from @turkishspices tucked away in the garage. Bought it ages ago and, wow, it still brought the goods! Honestly, these would work just as well with the Doner blend too. If you love kebabs, you’ve got to get your hands on their stuff. 👌
Want to give these a go? Full recipe is here 👉 https://www.smokeandsear.world/BBQ-recipes/adana-kebab-bombs-recipe/

🔥 Bavette Cheesesteak Done Right! 🔥
This is one of my absolute favourites from the recipe vault—my Ninja Woodfire Bavette Cheesesteak.
Tender bavette steak, gooey gouda, grilled veggies, all tucked into a crusty ciabatta roll. It’s simple, it’s satisfying, and it’s an absolute showstopper.
Here’s how it all comes together:
💥 Grilled bavette steak, seasoned to perfection.
🫑 Sweet grilled onions and peppers for the crunch.
🧀 Layers of melty gouda and processed cheese for that ultimate cheesesteak vibe.
🥖 Nestled into a warm ciabatta roll, ready to devour.
This recipe’s been on my site for a while, but it’s too good not to share again. Find the full how-to here: https://www.smokeandsear.world/BBQ-recipes/ninja-woodfire-bavette-cheesesteak/
If you’ve never tried this recipe, give it a go and let me know what you think. Who’s hungry now? 🔥🥩

🔥 And THAT’S why a vacuum sealer machine is your BEST mate when you BBQ.
Today’s lunch was the stuff of legend—smoked pulled pork nachos made in just 35 minutes. Yep, you heard that right.
Here’s the trick:
💡 Pulled pork straight from the freezer (still vacuum-sealed) into a saucepan of simmering water. 25 minutes later—perfection.
💥 Hit it with an extra sprinkle of BBQ rub.
💪 Layered up with nachos, BBQ sauce, salsa, and cheese.
🔥 10 mins in the oven for melty goodness.
🌶️ Finished with sriracha drizzle, spring onion, and sour cream dollops.
The kids smashed it in seconds, and honestly, so did I.
Vacuum sealing = game changer. Keeps the flavour, keeps the moisture, keeps you winning.
👉 Wanna know more about reheating vacuum-packed BBQ leftovers like a pro? I’ve got you covered. Check out the full guide here: https://www.smokeandsear.world/foundations-tips/how-to-reheat-vacuum-packed-bbq-food-a-complete-guide/

🎤 So here’s the thing… I was gonna go all healthy with Cornflakes for this chicken sandwich. You know, like everyone else does. But then my local shop let me down. No Cornflakes, just Frosties.
And you know what? I binned the “healthy vibes” right then and there. Frosties it was. Sweet, crunchy, and a little rebellious – just how I like it.
I chucked everything at this sandwich: sweet, spicy, crunchy, glazed goodness… and honestly, maaaaaate, it turned out way better than I could’ve imagined. This thing is an absolute flavour bomb. 💣

Enjoyed a cheeky little ‘date night’ with my daughter over at @theranchlouth tonight.
Starters:
Olivia went for garlic bread and I had brisket bon bons. These were fantastic . . . Full of flavour!
Mains:
Olivia went for waffle burger (with fried chicken, maple smoked bacon and egg) whilst I went for the half rack of bourbon ribs topped with beef brisket . . . My theory was that I’d have to help her finish too . . . so best pace myself . . . but to my complete shock she demolished a good 75% herself 😮
Dessert:
We both went for the ‘Ranch Brownie’ . . . OK, possibly the best brownie I’ve had . . . but . . . we were both stuffed and couldn’t finish!
Came to a total of £79 (we had a couple drinks), and was well worth it . . . Amazing food, great atmosphere and the staff are so friendly and attentive . . . a fantastic date!
Can’t wait to return . . . in fact Olivia has suggested we go for Valentines Day 🥰 😂 🥰

🔥 BBQ Will Always Be My Passion… But We All Need Balance 🐾
BBQ is my passion, and digital/tech is my skill, but recently I’ve discovered something completely new—long walks with @wrenthechoclab around the Lincolnshire countryside. It’s been a game-changer for me.
I’ve even bought hiking boots… I know, crazy, right? 😂 But these walks give me time to reflect, regroup, and take a breather away from the screens and the grills. It’s become “me time” in a way I didn’t know I needed.
What about you? What’s your passion or interest away from the grills? Let me know—I’d love to hear how you all switch off. 🐾🔥
