Antony Worrall Thompson takes the art of barbecuing and grilling to another level, that of sophisticated al fresco dining. Entertain in style with easy-to-follow, mouth-watering recipes from chapters such as ‘On the Rack’, ‘Skewers and Sticks’ and ‘Veg Out’.

Recipes come from all over the world ranging from the classic ‘All-American Burger’ to ‘Caribbean Jerk Steak’, ‘Asian Chicken Thighs’ and ‘Lamb with Moroccan Mint Mechoui’ – this is a truly exotic and exciting take on barbecuing. There’s not just meat dishes either, there’s fish; ‘Chargrilled Monkfish with Chermoulah’, vegetables; ‘Grilled Nutty Aubergine’, ‘Baked Sweet Potatoes with Tomato and Chilli Butter’ and yummy desserts such as ‘Amaretti Peaches’ and ‘Fruit Kebabs’.

Customer Reviews

AWT barbecues
I am an AWT fan but must say I am a little disappointed in this publication. It has too much concentration on gas and kettle barbecues(which I do not own) A lot of the recipes are for larger pieces of meat which do not adapt well to a charcoal barbecue.There is a lot of wasted space in the book explaining basic skills which I feel that most of us already have after barbecueing a few times. I guess I will have to do my best in adapting these recipes to a normal small family barbecue occasion

Innovative barbecue!!
Eventually a book regrouping classical recipes for barbecues and also new recipes easy to follow but much more sophisticated than usually!! I really like this book as it includes 100 original and classical recipes with meat obviously but also fish, vegetables, desserts recipes and drinks. Barbecues at home are now easy to prepare, always different, and always delicious!!
