Whilst they might not have been the very first street food team in London (it’s a little hard to recall that far back and the pickle-backs may also have had something to do with this memory lapse), they remain, for those of us lucky enough to have eaten there, simply one of the very best. Their subsequent move into bricks ‘n mortar places didn’t change their headline rush to ensure their food brought some of the best BBQ derivatives to the city on the Thames. Tom Adams went on to farm our (jointly) loved Mangalitza pigs, so you just know he’s on the side of the angels. Try some of their less well known ideas, like the Devil Dip Gravy or Duck Giblet Sausages. There are a few recipes that would suit non-meat eaters, but this is still pretty much full-pedal-to-the-metal meat-mayhem.

Having run a butchery and got quite into bbq in the last few years, this book summed up what I loved most about food. It’s the kind of book that I wish I had written.

The recipes take skill but are fun to try and worth it.
