While game season is traditionally the time to enjoy game, Wild and Game produces frozen products, making it possible to enjoy these healthy, delicious meats at any time of…
Chicken is the world’s best-loved meat. When I was a kid, many decades ago, we only had chicken on Sundays as a treat; these days the price is affordable and accessible to all. Chickens are easily bred on small plots of land or in back yards. Yes, it’s a Yardbird. Chicken and Charcoal: Yakitori, Yardbird,…

Now, just wait – I know you’ll likely ignore this book. ‘Campfire Cuisine’ – you probably think that’s a book for rugged sorts: thick socks, hiking boots, woolly hats with solar cells, and that’s not you. But how about ‘Gourmet Recipes’? Well, that’s bound to be yoghurt, free-range vegetables and knitted meat substitute, isn’t it?…
Burgers are comforting. We graze on mass-produced patties of variable quality, and I have never had an objection in principle to fast-food burgers as long as the customer eats them as a treat.

Not sure what that might be, but perhaps “When Irish eyes are smiling.” Bentley’s welcomed its first guests in 1916. One commiserates with…
For the edification of those barbecue virgins, I should explain that the Weber in question is the manufacturer of the celebrated dome-lidded barbecue which is considered by many to be one of the best. Jamie Purviance has sufficient confidence to ally himself to that grill by penning Weber’s Complete Barbecue Book, which bears both his…
This is probably my favourite kind of book – that which combines travel and food. That’s not meals on wheels or in-flight refreshments – this is taking a trip and finding culinary gems along the way. Barbecue Road Trip is one of the most mouth-watering travel/food books around but it will delight and disappoint many…
The weather is getting warmer and a young man’s fancy turns to…the barbecue! Why should the blokes have all the fun, so I say this book is equally for the girls. This is a chunky book filled with photographs that make you want to rush out and light the barbecue even if it’s raining. Paul…
