In this ultimate barbecue cookbook, the humble backyard barbecue is a force to be reckoned with. Ben O'Donoghue's recipes offer up everything from juicy meats such as Mexican suckling pig and Caribbean jerk chicken to Indian spice-crusted fish, Singapore chilli crab, and spice-crusted tuna with tahini dressing. Ben also includes an array of succulent vegetarian dishes - try artichokes with lemon, honey, thyme and almond, or grilled haloumi with lemon and mint. In this compendium you'll also find the best drinks and desserts to accompany your meal, along with recipes for all the rubs and marinades, breads, salads and vegetables you'll ever need to make your barbecues the best in the neighbourhood. Whether your pride and joy is a wire rack over an open fire, a sturdy kettle barbecue or a deluxe gas-fired hotplate, The BBQ Companion is full of easy and satisfying recipes that get the home fires burning.
