As an experienced chef and food writer – and a dab hand with the barbie tongs – Ross Dobson knows a thing or two about cooking with fire, whether on a firepit with a simple grill or hotplate.

In Firepit Barbecue, Ross shares tips on the best wood to use, offers foolproof instructions to tame the flame and make the heat last, and provides advice on how to prepare food for the grill. You'll also find marinades for tenderising and adding flavour, plus ideas for delicious butters, salsas, dips, and breads.

With over 90 recipes, covering chicken, fish, pork, beef, lamb, vegetarian meals, and vegetables, the dishes are simple to prepare, fun to cook, and perfect for your firepit barbecue. Whether it's fragrant chicken parcels for a healthy mid-week family dinner, whole trout with lemon and dill for Sunday lunch, or spicy beef kebabs for a relaxed Friday night feast with friends, Firepit Barbecue has something for every occasion.
