Beef

The ultimate in barbecue food, sticky ribs always go down well at a party. Serve with some griddled corn and plenty of napkins! Any leftover barbecue sauce is also great with burgers and chicken.

You can use any lean beef steak cuts in this recipe, so look out for any special deals (but adjust the cooking time according to the thickness of the meat). If making this as a standalone main, serve it with some salad leaves plus warm flatbreads, chapatis or soft naan, or just a big bowl of jasmine rice

‘Cooking over fire is so much more than the immediate reaction of food over a blistering heat. Sure it can be hot and fast, but it can also be low and slow, as well as somewhere in between. I love this recipe because it showcases the barbecue’s capabilities. A thick steak licked over searing heat, and roasted garlic cooked slower away from the coals to gently draw the cloves’ natural sweetness.’ says chef Melissa
