7 Fires

If you’re obsessed with cooking over open flame, welcome to the gospel according to Francis Mallmann. Seven Fires isn’t just a cookbook—it’s a masterclass in fire, smoke, char, and heat, taught by the man who practically is live-fire cooking. Mallmann is a legend for a reason, and this book pulls back the curtain on how he turns simple ingredients into magic using just wood, flame, and patience.  We’re huge fans of grilling, so naturally, we’re huge fans of Mallmann. His approach is rooted in simplicity, but make no mistake—it’s all about technique. From searing meats on iron surfaces to slow-cooking vegetables buried in hot coals, he breaks down seven distinct fire-cooking methods and shows you how to actually master them. It’s not just “what to grill”—it’s how to grill like a pro.  Seven Fires is part philosophy, part how-to, and all inspiration. Whether you're cooking in your backyard or dreaming of a Patagonian fire pit, this book will have you thinking differently about flame, flavor, and the beauty of restraint. A must for anyone who takes their fire seriously.
