Slow Fire London

. . .

The concept of ‘Slow Fire London’ has been heating up for some time now.

Being served up from this distinctive converted Chevrolet GMC ambulance is BBQ and smoked meat… Expect deliciously slow cooked whole joints of meat prepared over wood and charcoal and served with fresh crunchy slaws and punchy, bright and fresh salads.

Growing up in Norfolk gave me a real experience and in turn, love, of quality-reared, freshly grown and prepared food from an early age.

After spells of travelling the world and sampling culinary delights from all over the globe, my affection for food brought me to London where I pursued a career as a chef.

Having worked in some of London's top kitchens, my passion for food always brings me back to all things rustic and bbq.

It was only when I read "Seven Fires" by the Argentinean don of pit cooking, Francis Mallmann that I was inspired to pay homage to his beautiful way of taking cooking right back to nature.

Wanting to feed the masses with this way of cooking - the only thing left on the list was to find the perfect place to do it from.

Then I found it, it was perfect! A decommissioned Chevrolet GMC Ambulance – it wasn’t the conventional, but it was exactly what I wanted.

Although it’s been a long process having the Chevrolet converted into the perfect food truck, it’s been a total labour of love. As soon as the customised two-metre long bbq /smoker was fitted, the dream (finally! ) felt like it was becoming reality!

Now here we are, ready to bring you the finest meats cooked over sustainably sourced woods and charcoal. Enjoy, and take it slow…
