The Cadac Cook Book transforms your camping barbecue from a basic burger-flipper into a proper outdoor kitchen. This spiral-bound recipe collection features 30 tested recipes designed specifically for Cadac barbecues, though the techniques work across the brand's entire range from portable gas grills to dome models. Each recipe accounts for the reality of campsite cooking where you're working with limited space, variable heat control, and whatever ingredients you can store in a cool box.
You'll find recipes split across meat dishes, fish options, vegetarian meals and desserts. The book focuses on practical cooking rather than elaborate presentations. Recipes like barbecued trout with herbs, marinated chicken skewers, and grilled halloumi salads use ingredients that travel well and don't need constant refrigeration. The instructions assume you're cooking outdoors, so they're written with wind, rain and changing temperatures in mind. Each recipe lists what Cadac accessories work best, though most adapt to whatever cooking surfaces you've got.
One limitation worth noting is that the book doesn't include nutritional information or allergen warnings, so you'll need to work those out yourself if they matter. The laminated cover handles the inevitable spills better than a standard paperback would. It's aimed at people who want to move beyond basic campsite fare without spending hours prepping ingredients or hunting for specialist equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the recipes in the Cadac Cook Book work on other brand barbecues?
The recipes are written for Cadac barbecues but the cooking techniques translate to most gas barbecues with temperature control. You'll need to adapt the instructions if your barbecue uses different cooking surfaces or heat distribution patterns. The book references specific Cadac accessories like the pizza stone and paella pan, so recipes using those need equivalent equipment on other brands.
What skill level are the Cadac Cook Book recipes aimed at?
These recipes suit beginners through to experienced outdoor cooks. Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions with cooking times and temperatures. The book assumes you understand basic barbecue operation and food safety but doesn't require advanced culinary techniques. Most recipes take 15-45 minutes from start to finish, accounting for campsite conditions.
Is the Cadac Cook Book suitable for caravanning and motorhome trips?
The recipe book works well for caravan and motorhome users with outdoor barbecue setups. Recipes account for limited refrigeration space and use ingredients that store at cool box temperatures. The spiral binding and laminated cover handle travel better than standard cookbooks. You'll need outdoor space to set up your Cadac barbecue as the recipes aren't designed for indoor cooking.
Does the Cadac Cook Book include ingredient lists and quantities?
Each recipe provides complete ingredient lists with measurements in metric and imperial units. Quantities are written for four servings but scale up or down depending on your group size. The book suggests which ingredients you can substitute based on what's available at campsite shops or local supermarkets. Shopping lists aren't provided, so you'll need to compile those yourself before your trip.
What Cadac accessories does the Cook Book require?
Most recipes work with the standard grills and flat plates that come with Cadac barbecues. Some recipes suggest optional accessories like the pizza stone, paella pan, or wok, but the book provides alternative cooking methods if you don't own them. The recipe introduction for each dish lists which Cadac cooking surface works best, letting you choose recipes that match your existing equipment.
