Since the release of Real Men Do it Outdoors, The Blokes' BBQ Cookbook, author Josh Barnes, embarked on a mission of barbecuing self-discovery. Leaving behind his beloved back yard barbecues, he travelled the world tirelessly in search of the best barbecue locations and cuisines – and the most innovative and time-tested cooking techniques real men worldwide have to offer. Our intrepid author has a hard life, but someone had to do it!

Along his smoke-filled journey he travelled to some of the most culturally flavoursome countries in the world, met wonderful people and... learnt a lot about barbecuing, which he now shares with you.

Real Men Do it Outdoors Around the World is the sequel to the bestselling Real Men do it Outdoors. Here, Josh has collected international BBQ recipes show-casing the unique and distinctive flavours and styles – often shaped by local cultures, climates and the barbecuing heritage in each area – for us to try on our own backyard barbie.

Despite all the cultural differences, he found one thing that remained constant. No matter where the author was in the world, the welcoming and community feel at each barbecue remained the same. The humble barbecue has the ability to bring people together, no matter their age, sex, background or nationality.
