I have a suggestion/request. Gordon Ramsay has epically failed at grilled cheese on multiple occasions. You should make one and those cookers look perfect for it!!

Quick correction... we just turn into summer on the 21st June... in the UK we've been waiting for good weather all spring with no joy and finally we have the break everyone was anxiously wanted with sunny spells and high temperatures... how long is going to last is another matter, but we'll make the most of it with bbqs, no doubt!
Awesome video. Thank you!

As an avid griller, I recently switched from Qstoves to Asmoke, and what a difference it has made! The precise temperature control of the Asmoke is a game-changer. No more guessing, and the result is perfectly cooked food every time. Plus, the wood pellets add a smoky flavor that takes the food to a whole new level. It's portable, making it great for outings and the battery lasts up to 10 hours, which is just fantastic. The best part? It's environmentally friendly! Using recycled wood pellets as a fuel source is a great way to reduce waste. The Asmoke has truly transformed the way I grill. If you're considering a switch, I can't recommend Asmoke enough. #Asmoke

The best thing about Ribeye is that if you overcook it even a little, it's still tender/juicy because of all that fat.
You have bought things with your own money. Lucky you to be able to afford it. Congrats.

Love how language shifts. I just googled Rockets and found like four different names, and from the Italian rucola or ruchetta, we see how Americans came to call it arugula and Brits called it Rockets. But how about watercress in the salad, which by the way looked AMAZING. Next time I buy steaks I'll definitely make this salad. I'll probably use cannellini or black beans though, as cranberry beans pre cooked are sometimes tough to find.

I donated my Kamado (big green egg style) when I moved house and it was too much effort to move it...Although I do miss it at times, for now just using wood fire on an open wood fire pit, but the temp is much harder to control
Grilling is not BBQ'ing. BBQ'ing is a low and slow process, in which the Green Egg excels by holding in lower temperatures for a long period of time. Grilling is over hot, direct, or nearly direct heat for a much shorter period of time.

You're obviously from America. The term BBQ has different meanings all over the world.. America doesn't own the word. For example: USA: Involves slow-cooking meat at low temperatures over indirect heat, usually with wood or charcoal to impart a smoky flavor. Aus/UK: Generally involves grilling meat quickly over direct heat, often on a gas or charcoal grill. Argentina: Involves cooking meat over a wood fire or charcoal (referred to as "parrilla"). The meat is often cooked slowly and carefully to achieve a tender and flavorful result. But as an American, you probably don't realise that there are other cultures.

This^^ as I grew up in UK/Singapore and married an Aussie, we often call “Grilling” BBQ, or having a bbq. I understand the differences as i have done a lot of pitmaster work, but i just naturally refer it as bbq when im at home.
omg that looks delicious the steak looks good too Crikey the blokes Aussie almost thought it was Bernard Foley, what a champ hes snogging auntie Liz
Grillin' and chillin'. Those steaks look almost dry aged. Auntie Liz (I prefer Chef Liz) is sure gonna make this a hot summer 🔥🔥🔥🔥
My suggestion would be pork belly and/or spare rib. Just hearing your background, I'm sure you do a mean pork belly and spare rib which I'm looking forward to the accompaniments that you use for both. I was surprised with the steak accompaniments especially the beans but it looks great regardless.
Well done Auntie Liz.

Yes totally considered this option and it’s the option I’m recommending to my extended family who want one. For my circumstance the wood fire just had big appeal and wanted to have that option available to me even if we don’t use it every time like when I’m in a rush or not doing a video for yt. These are all tools at the end of the day so get what will work best for you. We did a video on the Roccbox a few years back an that was simply great for a while too but dang I’m loving my dome and the stand phwoarr

@@AuntieLiz Ah, of course you do and that makes sense. Would be interesting to watch a video on things/habits you do in professional kitchens that you don't in your home. Like salt contamination, not using a tasting spoon/tasting with your fingers and all that. I've seen/heard different things from different chefs. Curious to know what really matters and why.
"Always oil your meat." Words to live by.
Please tell people to salt their steaks the night before or better two days before. Makes a world of difference.
Love the old pics of the young Auntie Liz (Niece Liz?) Can you get mesquite wood in the UK to use for your Gozney Dome? They use that for Tex-Mex and Texas style grilling here in the US and gives a smoky flavor to food. 👍

Nice to not have all the innuendos... If you are doing pizza, be sure to make sure to learn how to make dough from Vito Iacopelli of Soft&Crunchy fame!
I’ve been using the BGE for almost 8 years, never use oil on meat it just drips and burns and if the lump is as hot as it should you don’t need to worry about sticking. But it’s nice to see you can get good beef in the uk.

I get liking the taste of the charcoal, but you're using a truly gigantic ceramic cooker that takes hours to temp when all you need is a hibachi. Please don't recommend the big green egg for a quick sear steak, it's the improper tool and a gigantic waste of energy.
