Hi, I’m Steve – a former chef with over 30 years of experience in professional kitchens. From fine dining restaurants to pub classics, I’ve lived and breathed the culinary world since I was a teenager. After stepping away from the commercial kitchen due to arthritis, I didn’t lose my passion for food—I simply brought it home.
Kitchen Sizzlers is my new chapter. Based in the UK, this website is a place where I can combine my love of BBQ and slow smoking with a mission to make outdoor cooking more accessible, fun, and flavourful for everyone—whether you’re just starting out or already a seasoned pitmaster.
What Kitchen Sizzlers Is All About
Kitchen Sizzlers is your go-to UK BBQ website for:
Practical BBQ tips for beginners
Tried-and-tested smoking recipes
Honest gear reviews
Family-friendly ideas for outdoor cooking
Tools and guides for flavour-chasers and meat lovers
Whether you’ve just bought your first smoker or you’re firing up the grill every weekend, you’ll find something here to help you level up your skills.
Built for Real People Who Love Great Food
This site isn’t about showboating or competitive BBQ—it’s about flavour, learning, and enjoying the process. I focus on approachable techniques, affordable gear, and down-to-earth advice that actually works in UK gardens and backyards (rain or shine!).
You’ll also find tips for storing smoked meals, using vacuum packs, and reheating safely—especially helpful for those prepping food for elderly family members or dietary needs, as I do for my parents.
Looking Ahead – Merch, Community, and More
Kitchen Sizzlers is still growing. I’m planning to launch a line of BBQ-themed merchandise using dropshipping, so you can show off your smoker pride in style. There will be:
Branded T-shirts, aprons, and mugs
Gift ideas for BBQ fans
Fun gear inspired by my cartoon chef mascot
And I’m also working toward building a Facebook group for like-minded UK BBQ lovers to share their setups, recipes, and stories.
