WHO SAID MEAL PREP HAS TO BE BORING?!

Forget your sad little lunchbox with dry chicken and plain rice. We’re doing things properly!

ONE POT KING PRAWN EGG FRIED RICE, cooked over real fire on the .uk over lumpwood charcoal.

And this one is an absolute BANGER! 🤤

Juicy king prawns, fluffy rice, eggs and plenty of colourful veggies, all tossed together in one pot over the flames.

Quick. Easy. Nutritious. Packed with flavour.

This is exactly the sort of food I love making for my lunches throughout the week.

There’s no reason why eating well should mean eating boring food.

A little bit of prep, some fresh ingredients and you’ve got yourself a delicious, protein packed lunch that’ll have everyone in the office looking over wondering what smells so bloody good! 😂

And the beauty of this dish?

You don’t need a fancy outdoor kitchen to make it, it’s just more fun. A wok or frying pan on your kitchen hob will do the job just fine.

But you know me…

If I can cook it over fire, I’m bloody well going to! 🔥

Now tell me…

Are you someone who preps your lunches for the week, or are you grabbing whatever you can find when lunchtime rolls around? 👇

This time last week I was at the Food & Fire Festival at the with the team delivering live demos on the fire stage.

Here is what it looked like for me from the stage with my glasses capturing all the moments on dishing up my Dirty Steak & Eggs with Chimichurri ultimate brunch demo for the audience.

I love these glasses they are helping me improve my content angles with ease! Plus I can share with you guys what it’s like having all this fun🔥

The kids have already asked when are we having this again!

And to be fair, I don’t blame them!

GREEK PORK MEATBALLS IN A RICH, SMOKY TOMATO SAUCE!

This one is an absolute belter of a midweek family meal, and of course, I’ve given it the Daddy Bear Grills live fire treatment!

First up, we’re cooking our veggies DIRTY, straight in the hot embers, building those beautiful smoky flavours.

Then it’s time for the pork meatballs to hit the .uk grill, picking up that gorgeous colour and a kiss of wood smoke before we bring everything together.

Into the pot they go, bubbling away in a rich, delicious tomato sauce, soaking up all those incredible flavours.

Smoky. Juicy. Rich. Packed with flavour. 🤤

And the real test?

The kids absolutely DEVOURED it!

When you’ve got a family meal that gets everyone excited around the dinner table, you know you’re onto a winner.

This is definitely going into our regular midweek dinner rotation for the next few weeks!

And whilst I love cooking it outside over fire, it’s a dish you can easily recreate in your own kitchen too.

Because great food doesn’t need to be complicated. Just good ingredients, a little love and plenty of flavour.

Now tell me… what’s that ONE family dinner your kids would happily eat every single week? 👇

I’m always looking for new ideas to get cooking over the fire! 🔥

I think cooking over fire makes us better people.

When I run a day in the woods, something happens within the first hour. The phones go in pockets and they stay there. Nobody tells anyone to put them away. The fire just asks for your attention, and people give it.

Then comes the patience. You can’t rush embers. You light the fire, you wait, you feed it, you wait a bit more. For a lot of people that’s the first time in weeks they’ve done one thing slowly and properly.

And then the best bit. Strangers who arrived not knowing a single name end up stood round the same fire, passing tongs, swapping stories and laughing at each other’s burnt bits. By lunch they’re chatting like old mates.

I’ve seen quiet people open up and busy people finally slow down, all because of a pile of wood and some meat.

We’ve spent thousands of years gathering round fires. I don’t think we’ve ever stopped needing it.

This Saturday our 2027 experience dates and vouchers go live. First choice goes to our loyal subscribers of our weekly Fireside Chat newsletter where our discounts are. If you would like to grab a discount comment 🔥 below and I’ll get you sorted!

WARNING: THIS ONE COULD CAUSE SOME SERIOUS DROOLING!

CHEESY GARLIC CHICKEN… and it’s an absolute BELTER!

You know those dishes where you take the first mouthful and immediately know you’re going back for seconds?

THIS IS ONE OF THEM!

We’re talking beautifully cooked, juicy chicken, loads of garlic and an outrageously cheesy finish that’ll have your tastebuds doing backflips!

Rich. Garlicky. Cheesy. Ridiculously delicious.

And of course, we’re cooking it over REAL FIRE on the .uk because why wouldn’t we?!

The beauty of live fire cooking is that it doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes the simplest ingredients create the most incredible food.

And this is one of those dishes that’s perfect for a midweek dinner or impressing your mates around the BBQ at the weekend.

Just make sure you’ve got something to mop up all that cheesy, garlicky goodness. Trust me, you won’t want to waste a drop!

Now, serious question…

Are you one of those people who follows the recipe when it says two cloves of garlic, or are you chucking in the whole bloody bulb like me?! 😂👇

Who said curry night had to be the weekend?

This one is an absolute BANGER!

ONE POT KING PRAWN & RED LENTIL CURRY, cooked from scratch over the fire on my .uk

And the best bit? It’s ridiculously simple to make.

We’re talking juicy king prawns, warming spices, beautiful red lentils and a rich, fragrant curry sauce bubbling away over the flames.

One pot. Minimal fuss. MASSIVE flavour! 🤤

There’s something pretty special about cooking a curry over real fire. The smell of those spices hitting the heat, the gentle bubbling of the sauce and that little kiss of wood smoke bringing everything together.

You don’t need to spend hours in the kitchen to create something incredible.

This is the perfect midweek meal when you fancy something a little different, and you can just as easily recreate it on your kitchen hob.

Although, you know what I’m going to say…

GET OUTSIDE AND LIGHT THAT FIRE! 🔥

Fancy giving this beauty a go yourself?

Comment 🔥 below and I’ll send you the FULL RECIPE!

Save this one for your next curry night and tag someone who loves a good prawn curry!

People ask me, what is it like up on stage in front of people cooking???

Here is exactly what I see, thanks to my new glasses you can see everything from my point of view.

You can’t rush a fire. And that’s exactly why it makes better people.

No dial, no timer, no shortcut. You read the flames, feel the heat on your face, and wait until it’s ready. Not when you are. Twenty years in boxing taught me patience, but fire still tests it every single time.

Then something happens. The phones go away. People drift in and stand round it without being asked.

Strangers start talking. The quiet ones open up. Somebody always ends up feeding the fire like they’ve been doing it all their life.

I’ve watched blokes who swear they can’t cook a thing hand over their first plate of fire cooked steak, proud as punch. I’ve seen kids learn more about respect and responsibility from one evening by the fire than from a week of being told.

Because when you cook over fire, you’re never really cooking for yourself. You’re cooking for the people round it. You learn to pay attention, to be patient, to look after others and to take it on the chin when you get it wrong.

There’s nowhere to hide round a fire. No fancy kit doing it for you. Just you, the flames and whoever’s waiting to eat.

Give someone a fire and a bit of meat and you find out who they really are.
