Know your cook

More information, cause recipe back stories are stupid

No 500-word life story — just the good-to-know stuff on what’s actually in this cook. Here’s the rundown on every real ingredient, health and nutrition wise.

Beef
Beef is a complete protein and one of the best food sources of highly absorbable heme iron, zinc, and vitamin B12 — key for energy, immunity, and healthy blood. Fattier BBQ cuts are calorie-dense, so lean trimming and sensible portions keep it balanced.
Chili peppers
Chili peppers are low in calories and high in vitamin C and antioxidants, and their heat comes from capsaicin, which may give metabolism a small nudge. Dial the amount to your spice tolerance.
Garlic
Garlic adds big flavour for almost no calories and contains sulphur compounds (like allicin) long studied for heart and immune benefits. It's one of the healthiest ways to season a cook.
Onion
Onions are low-calorie aromatics rich in fibre, vitamin C, and antioxidants such as quercetin. They add depth and gentle sweetness without much fat or salt.
Beef tallow
Beef tallow is rendered beef fat used to wrap and baste — it keeps big cuts moist and adds beefy richness. It's pure fat and calorie-dense, so a light coat does the job.
Sweet potato
Sweet potatoes are rich in fibre and beta-carotene (vitamin A), with a lower glycemic impact than you'd expect for something so sweet — a nutrient-dense carbohydrate side.
Tomato
Tomatoes bring bright acidity plus vitamin C and lycopene, an antioxidant that becomes more available when cooked. They lighten and balance rich, fatty barbecue.
