Welcome to the Summer Issue dropping soon đ„
Big names and big feasts set us up for an epic summer of BBQ, whether that means cooking in the garden with friends, dining out with family, or gathering around a shared fire where strangers become friends.
Jamie Oliver retains all the charisma and energy that first captured our attention as The Naked Chef 27 years ago. A true kitchen polymath, it might be that the BBQ is actually Jamieâs natural home.
Kaleb Cooper may have become a TV star through Clarksonâs Farm, but heâd still rather be on a tractor, with a BBQ in the barn and meat from his own livestock on the grill.
Gladiator and former rugby and NFL player Alex âApolloâ Gray heads to Cinder, while Michelin-starred chef Roger Jones showcases outstanding food and drink pairings. Add drinks expert Andy Clarke and rugby legend Alun Wyn Jones, and you have quite the gathering.

Nick Weston of Hunter Gather Cook makes the case for venison as a sustainable, nutritious choice, while Zana Millen and Rawlston Williams explore the rich flavours of the Caribbean.
Jodie Tonks is a name to remember. Winner of the Kamado Joe and Great British Chefs Young BBQ Chef of the Year competition, she impressed head judge Paul Ainsworth with her winning dish.
The Beefy Boys return with Great British BBQ, a celebration of Britainâs long grilling heritage, while our recipe pages once again deliver inspiration for every style of outdoor cooking.
As our Outdoor Living feature reveals, buyers are increasingly looking beyond the back door when choosing a home. Whatever the size of your outdoor space, there has never been a better time to cook outside.
