Pioneers of the American barbecue scene in the UK, the authors created the Grillstock festival, which draws 20,000 fans to a weekend of meat, music and mayhem in June. Their latest book teaches cooking on outside wood ovens and caters for every budget and space * The Sun *From the Bristol-based creators of barbecue brand Grillstock, this new book is fuelling the fires of the outdoor cookery trend. The aim is for people to get the most culinary return possible from their wood-fired oven investment. All your essential info is here - think advice on equipment, fuel, temperatures and managing the fire - as well as heaps of imaginative recipes, ranging from the simple to the out-of-the-box. Pizzas include calzone and pizzettas, while the brunches (such as French toast with coulis), seafood creations (like salmon cooked on a wooden plank), one-pots (think beef barbacoa), and other mains, sides, breads and desserts, prove that there is not one meal of the day that your wood fired oven can’t be used for * Crumbs *
