When you've got a list of barbecue recipes, it's basically a crime not to include cheeseburgers. And we don't mean those wimpy little fast food burgers, oh no. We're talking patties so hefty, they've earned the right to be called "thicc" with two c's. We're talking burgers that require at least doubling up on disposable plates, but even then, they'll buckle under the weight. But one can't properly feast on girth alone, which is why we've also made our cheeseburgers with parsley, garlic, and onion mixed into the meat, properly packing it with flavour.

Forget the pot of gold, this Smoked Guinness Shepherd’s Pie is the real treasure at the end of the rainbow. Slow-cooked for deep, smoky flavour and finished with a creamy mashed potato topping, it’s the kind of comfort food that guarantees seconds (and maybe thirds). Perfect for St Patrick’s Day celebrations or any time you’re craving proper comfort food. This recipe pairs perfectly with a proper pint and with the MEATER wireless meat thermometer keeping your cook on track, you can focus on the craic while the filling turns rich, tender, and full of flavour.

This is a sweet spot right in between "All I want to do is chuck some drumsticks in the oven" and "My entire extended family is coming over and I need to prepare a turkey with all the fixings". It's a perfect balance, not easy enough to be called lazy, but not difficult enough to be panic-inducing. It's a family classic and an international staple, and it's highly customizable to your flavor preference. And the cherry on top of this cluckin' cake is that it's up there with the healthier proteins, so you can feel indulgent and responsible at the same time.
