Pitmaster Pearse

BBQ is an opportunity to take a step back from the chaos and digitalisation of our lives and reconnect with something a little more simple.
 

There’s something special about lighting a fire, preparing good food and then letting time do the work. No rushing. No shortcuts. Just fire, smoke, patience and good company.
 

For me, BBQ isn’t just about the food. It’s about the ritual — the anticipation, the smells, the crackle of the fire and those long hours spent around the smoker. It’s about slowing down, getting your hands dirty and enjoying the process as much as the final bite with friends and family

Pitmaster Pearse is all about that process. Live fire, low ’n’ slow and cooking with patience — sharing the techniques, recipes, gear and experiences that make BBQ worth taking your time over.

If you've got this far then hi! I'm Richard, a live-fire cooking addict. What started off as a lockdown hobby and evolved into working with some of the best pitmasters from across the world, working at global renowned live-fire events and gaining international acclaim from those at the top of their game, to influencers and our BBQ legends at Under Seasoned BBQ!
