Step into the Embered Fire Kitchen, where the heart of our operation beats in time with the lively crackle of logs and the warm, inviting aroma of wood smoke. Our custom-made fire furnace, the heart of our operation, radiates warmth and excitement as we meticulously shovel glowing wood embers across the cooking table. The magic unfolds as skewers are glazed to perfection, and fire-kissed flatbreads turn golden, each brushed with a decadent layer of butter. This is an adventure for the soul, celebrating the raw, tantalizing thrill of fire cooking. Our kitchen, curated with love and respect for our craft, is an homage to traditional fire cooking methods, categorized into four distinct sections - The Grill, The Cauldrons, The Roasts and the Wood Smoke Oven.
The Grill: Sizzle to Smoke
In our Grill section, we celebrate open flame cooking at its finest. Using a variety of native sustainable woods, our grill imparts an intoxicating smoky depth to our meticulously curated dishes.
Cauldron: The Melting Pot
In the heart of our fire kitchen sits the Cauldron section, a nostalgic nod to the age-old tradition of slow-cooking over a fire. Our cauldrons bubble with a rich medley of flavours that mingle, meld, and mature over time, creating dishes that comfort the soul and delight the palate. Be it the hearty Venison Mulligatawny with Wood Sorrel Dumplings or the fiery Wild Garlic Chicken Vindaloo, each dish is a testament to our commitment to culinary craftsmanship and respect for time-honoured cooking techniques.
Roasts: Fire, Time and joy of Slow Cooking
In the Roasts section, we elevate the art of slow-cooked, fire-roasted fare to new heights. Here, we let time and heat work their magic on our choice cuts of meat and fresh seafood. Whether it's the mouth-watering Spit Roast with a capacity for 28 chickens, a whole cross roast lamb, the juicy border beef rib, or our herb-encrusted planked salmon, every roast is a sensory feast that celebrates the raw, primal joy of cooking over a gentle flame.
Wood Smoke Oven: The Tranquility amidst the Flames
Our custom smoker, the Smoke Oven, stands as a serene counterpoint to the vibrant energy of the fire kitchen. From hot to cold, the smoker imparts a soothing smoky depth to our dishes, offering a quiet calm amidst the bustling energy of direct heat fire cooking. Each ingredient is gently caressed by the smoke, slowly absorbing the rich, subtle nuances, thereby transforming into a culinary masterpiece that embodies the essence of Embered Fire Kitchen's ethos - simplicity, respect for ingredients, time, and the love of cooking with fire.
