Outdoor Cooking King is an independent resource for outdoor and barbecue cooking — grill and smoker buying advice, cooking strategies, and recipes.
Every recipe we publish comes from an established, attributed source — a chef, a cookbook, a barbecue competition team or a recognised food publication — not invented for the page. Where we adapt a recipe, we say so and credit the original. Our equipment guides are written to help you compare grills, smokers and accessories on the features that actually matter, not marketing claims.
Outdoor Cooking King is operated by Good Online Commerce Ltd, registered in England and Wales.
How we source what we publish
- Named sources, always linked. Each article says which publisher, chef, manufacturer or official body its information comes from and links to it. Recipes are credited to their original author and we do not claim to have tested them ourselves.
- Food-safety figures come from official bodies. Safe temperatures and handling rules are taken from USDA, the FDA, the UK Food Standards Agency, the NHS or a manufacturer’s own manual. When a recipe’s doneness target is lower than the official minimum, we show both numbers rather than hiding the difference.
- Where sources disagree, we say so. Cooks and manufacturers do not always agree on timings, vents, salting or resting. We set the positions side by side instead of picking a winner.
- History is attributed and dated. Where the origin of a dish or a piece of equipment is disputed, we name each account and its source.
- Diet, allergy and health topics are general information only. They are not medical or nutrition advice. Anyone with a diagnosed allergy or condition should check every ingredient label and follow the guidance of their own doctor or dietitian.
