Rum Tarte Tatin

Discover our mouthwatering tarte tatin recipe, where caramelised apples are paired with buttery puff pastry and a splash of dark rum. This decadent dessert may take a bit of effort, but the delicious results are well worth it.

Zesty Eton Mess

I know lemon isn’t a traditional Eton Mess ingredient, but Eton Mess is only as traditional as a deconstructed (dropped) Australian Pavlova anyway, right? And, as we don’t like to waste ingredients here at BBQ magazine, it made sense to use up the leftover egg yolks from the meringue and make a lemon curd.

Burnt Blackberry & Fig Jam

Inspired by the famous Australian chef Maggie Beer and her Burnt Fig Jam. You must be brave with this recipe and let the fruit burn just enough to get that perfect combination of bitter, sweet, smoky and completely moreish consistency.

Corn & Edamame Fritters & Whipped Feta

An upgrade on a childhood favourite. Great for planchas and hot plates or perfect for a skillet over gas, charcoal or fire. I used the Weber Slate for this cook. Delicious for brunch, canapés or even cold for picnics.

Crispy Beef Ribs

Think crispy beef bacon! These are delicious and will disappear in seconds.
