Easy recipe steps:
1. Prepare the BBQ. Light with file starters
2. While the coals are heating, soak the tea towel and 5 to 6 feet of butcher’s twine in the red wine.
3. Place the wine-soaked towel on a work surface (watch for stains ;)). Sprinkle the sea salt over the towel to form an even layer large enough to cover the entire piece of meat.
4. Then spread the Coffee Rub over the salt.
5. Place the tenderloin on the herbs. Roll it around the meat. Wrap the salt and towel around the meat, enveloping it completely.
6. Tie the wine-soaked butcher’s twine around the meat, tying it every 1 inch. Pour additional wine onto the tea towel to soak completely.
7. Place the wrapped meat directly on the hot coals. Grill for about 10 minutes and then turn. Continue grilling until the tenderloin has an internal temperature of about 40-45 degrees Celsius (depending on your own preference). Then quickly remove your meat from the charcoal and let it rest. The core temperature should rise to about 51-54 degrees Celsius in about 5 to 10 minutes.
8. While your tenderloin is resting, make the Aji Picante. Combine all ingredients + some coffee rub in a blender until smooth.
9. Remove the meat from the tea towel. You can throw this away. Scrape the salt crust off the meat and slice into nice pieces. Serve with the Aji Picante. Enjoy!

4. Divide the bacon strips, spring onion and grated old cheese over the sweet potato and bake for 30 minutes with the barbecue closed.
5. Meanwhile, mix all the fresh herbs, red onion, red pepper, garlic and lemon zest with the Not Just BBQ chimichurri herbs and a few tablespoons of oil and balsamic vinegar to taste, let all the flavors infuse for an extra spicy bite.
6. Let the cĂ´te de boeuf come to room temperature for at least 1 hour. Pat the meat dry with kitchen paper.
7. Sprinkle generously with the Not Just BBQ Coffee rub. Cover all sides well.
8. Grill until golden brown directly on the gril.

RECEPT 3. Winter hunter’s stew in Polish Bigos style
This hearty winter stew has its origins in the traditional Polish dish Bigos. It is made from different types of meat and game enriched with shredded fresh cabbage. Or sauerkraut if you like.
Outdoor cooking is no longer limited to the summer months. In addition to these stew herbs, NOT JUST BBQ has developed two classic herb and spice mixes to make delicious winter stews on the BBQ for the colder winter season. Or in the pan or on the stove, of course. Simply season beef or game meat, add vegetables or potatoes, place in a cast iron pan on the barbecue and let it stew gently. Easy to prepare and delicious to warm up on cold winter evenings.
Ingredients

- Not Just BBQ Firestarters
- 900 g sauerkraut (pot or pack)
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp butter
- 2 large onions – peeled and finely chopped
- 500 g shoulder chops – cut into small cubes
- 4 kabanosy – thin, smoked Polish sausages, cut into 1 cm pieces
- 200 g ½ ring kielbasa, Polish sausage – cut into cubes
- 4 pimento berries
- 2 plums – finely chopped, or 1 tbsp powidla, Polish plum butter
- 1.5 litres of water
- 100 g fresh white mushrooms – chopped
- ½ head of white cabbage – finely chopped
- rye bread
Necessities
- Kamado barbecue (we used The Bastard)
- Coal
- Large cast iron frying pan
- Medium cast-iron frying pan
Preparation method
>> Watch HERE OUR step-by-step how-to video recipe <<
Easy recipe steps:
1. Preheat the grill to 200 degrees
2. Drain the sauerkraut in a sieve. If you prefer a slightly less acidic – flavour, rinse the sauerkraut with cold water and then drain. If you like sour, squeeze out the liquid with your hands. Set aside.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil and the butter in a large ovenproof pan or Dutch oven and add the onions. Fry on a very low heat for 10 – 15 minutes, until the onions are very soft and slightly golden.
4. Add the pork to the pan and fry on a low heat for about 10 minutes, allowing it to brown slowly as the fat is released.
5. Add the sausages to the pan and stir.
Â
6. Add the sauerkraut.
7. Add prunes or powidta and add the Not Just BBQ STEW MIX.
8. Pour in water. Cover with a lid or foil and cook in the grill for 1.5 hours. After the first 15 minutes, lower the bbq to 180C.
9. Towards the end of the cooking time, fry the fresh mushrooms in a separate pan with the remaining oil. Add them to the stew along with the fresh cabbage, stir well, cover cover and put in the oven for another hour.
10. Add them to the stew along with the fresh cabbage, stir well, cover and put under the lid for another hour.
11. If there is still a lot of moisture in the bigos, put the pan on a medium heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes or until some of the moisture has evaporated (although we preferred with more moisture!).
Done! Serve with rye bread. The bigos is delicious to eat right away, but even tastier the next day after being well reheated.
