All Fired Up

From cute portable charcoal fuelled hibachis to gleaming stainless steel gas fired monsters, there’s a barbecue on the market for every lifestyle.

Far from being limited to sausage sizzles on the weekend, your barbecue can be a focal point for family fun every day of the year. After all, it’s one of the most social, convenient and fun ways to prepare meals, and with a minimum of washing up!

In All Fired Up, Brigid shows you how to make the most of your barbecue with herspectacular crowd pleasing recipes, with deliciously evocative photography by Louise Lister. You’ll never want to head indoor again!

Varying from the simple to the more complicated, these recipes are a vivid and imaginative combination of flavours and cultures.

Whether it's a Christmas party or a day at the races, a sophisticated evening affair or watching sports with the guys, Brigid Kennedy has solutions, suggestions and tantalising recipes to give your party that special touch.
