The weather this week has been spot on and hopefully a sign of things to come. The lighter evenings mean getting out into forest after work on a Friday for some r&r. Have a great weekend 🪵🪓🔥⛰️🍄‍🟫🏕️

I know not everyone is a fan but I love a bourbon. Especially when it’s enjoyed in front of the fire 🔥 notes of maple, oak, nutmeg, and light toffee or caramel. Delicious . . . #bourbon
Kicking off the bank holiday the right way. Still pretty cold at night but great to be back out in the forest. I hope everyone has a great weekend 🏕️🔥🪵🪓⛰️ . . . #forest #forestadventures #wildmancook
Home from home 🏕️⛰️🪵🪓🔥
Sometimes when entertaining friends for the evening I just get a complete blank when it comes to the menu. Do I play it safe and cook something they’ve had before and liked….or do I do go with something completely different! Birria tac
One of the best bits of kit I own for wilderness excursions 🏕️🪵🪓⛰️🔥
Fire, meat, and instinct — that’s all it really takes. Rustic grilling isn’t about perfection, it’s about connection. The crackle of wood, the smoke in your clothes, the feel of heat on your hands. No timers, no fuss —
The Wild Man Meatball Sub — no shortcuts, no nonsense. Hand-rolled meatballs, slow-simmered in a rich, fire-kissed marinara, stacked deep into a toasted sub and buried under molten mozzarella. It’s messy, it’s savage, and it hits l
First official spring cookout — and it didn’t hold back. Rib of beef over open fire, kissed by smoke and flame. Earthy shiitake mushrooms soaking up the juices, finished with a rich peppercorn sauce. Garlic butter new potatoes on the sid
Chasing sunsets 🌅 I’ve been sorting the jeep out ready for the camping season ahead. Ah I’m already imagining cracking a few cold beers and cooking over fire with this for a back drop 🙌🏼🔥
Before temples and stone, there was earth, fire, wind, and water—alive, watching, breathing. The old pagan gods aren’t distant… they are the forest, the storm, the crackle of the fire under open sky. Spirits in root and river, powe
No restaurant. No shortcuts. Just fire, spice and time. Tonight’s home curry bubbling away while the world goes dark outside. Layers of toasted spice, garlic, ginger and slow heat building in the pan. The kind of food that fills the house with
Some gear earns its place. My Frost River canvas bag is one of those pieces. Rugged, honest, and built the old way. Thick waxed canvas, leather that only gets better with age, and stitching that’s been tested through rain, mud, smoke and long
Fire, iron, and good venison. Tonight it’s a venison backstrap seared hard in a hot skillet over the flames — cooked just to medium rare so it stays tender and rich. Finished with a melting garlic and herb butter that runs through the me
Before kitchens. Before electricity. Before the world got loud. There was fire in the forest. Meat on flame. Smoke in your hair. Hands blackened by wood and ash. Instinct. Hunger. Heat. This isn’t cooking. It’s returning. #wildmancook
TABLE OF THE TROLLS. Deep in the hush of ancient forests, where the trees grow so tall they seem to whisper secrets to the stars, there are said to live the forest trolls. Not the fearsome creatures of loud tales—but quiet, watchful beings m
I’m a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to my camping gear 🏕️🪓🪵🌲🔥 . . . #hurricanelamp #bushcraftgear #wildmancook
Last night I just fancied something a bit different. So I went with a Kent rack of lamb from @bespokebutcher_shop. I then seared in the new @petromax.original skillet. Cast iron always delivers an awesome crust. Could have gone with a mash but proper
Winter under canvas with the added wood stove bonus. There’s something pretty dope about winter camping and being toasty. . . . #wildcamp #polishlavvu #woodstove #bushcraft #wildmancook
