With summer in full swing, is there a better reason to break out the grill and throw some meat on the flames? And while we all have our favourite barbeque meats and go-to sides at home, how are they doing it in the rest of the world?
To celebrate the best time of the year for outdoor cooking, we’re taking a trip across the globe to find out the unique local barbecue styles. From South Korea and Japan to Brazil, Australia and the USA this is the great global BBQ-off.

Surf and turf - or reef and beef, for our Australian friends – is a classic combination of beef (turf) and seafood (surf). Both have their own unique flavours but paired together they are a great flavour combination that you must taste to appreciate.

At Donald Russell, we have a wide variety of steaks, from tender fillet and juicy ribeye to lesser-known cuts like onglet or bavette. Whichever type you chose, proper cooking is the key. The difference between rare and well done is only a matter of minutes and cooking it wrong can ruin even the finest steak. We’ve asked our resident world-class Chef Eddie McDonald to talk us through how to get the perfect steak every time.

When it comes to romantic dinners, there’s no room for error. Nothing will suck the romance out of an evening like sub-standard food. With our wide selection of mains, sides, and desserts, you’ll be able to find a great-tasting meal to show your loved one how much you care.

With over 40 years of supplying fine food to premium restaurants, hotels and the Royal Households, we have lots of experience in making sure that the healthy food you’re looking for is just as delicious as the food you’re trying to avoid. 

To celebrate Scotland’s most famous poet, Robert Burns, we have partnered with our friends at Kocktail, experts in creating world class cocktails, who have shared some delicious recipe inspiration. 

When it comes to cooking romantic meals for Valentine’s Day, there’s very little room for error. Everything must be exactly right, or the consequences for your love life could be disastrous.

Our Chef has been working hard all year to source the finest, most delicious options for your Christmas dinner, delivered to your door. We have the traditional turkey or goose, grass-fed British beef roasts and luxurious handmade Beef Wellington. We have premium Scottish seafood starters such as smoked salmon, delicately flavoured with local whisky, tender Luxury Crevette Prawns or Wild King Scallops. For dessert we have a NEW Luxury Figgy Christmas Pudding, rich Millionaire’s Chocolate Log or smooth Salted Caramel Cheesecake.  

Helping people come together with friends and family to share great-tasting food is our passion at Donald Russell. After last year’s scaled-back celebrations, we all want to make sure that this year is the celebrations you deserve.

Food is about more than not being hungry – it's one of the ways we show people how much we care about them. Sitting down to enjoy great-tasting food with loved ones is one of our favourite experiences in life and we want to help share this joy. This Christmas, show someone how you feel about them by giving them the gift of good food.
