What to bring

The grill selection

  • Ribs and chopsThe stars. Ribs need gentle heat and time; chops need strong heat and a short time.
  • Marinated chickenLemon or marinated chicken, ready for the grill.
  • BurgersBeef burgers from our counter, for those who arrive hungry.
  • WingsWings and wing bites for starters.
  • BellyFor nibbling while the rest cooks.

How to set up the fire

  • Prepare two zones: one with strong embers for searing and another without embers for cooking with indirect heat.
  • Start with whatever takes longest (ribs, bone-in chicken) and leave the quick things (burgers, chops) for last.
  • Take the meat out of the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Use tongs to turn it. Piercing the meat with a fork lets the juices out.

You will find more details in our guide on how to make the perfect barbecue.
