Meeting up with close friends, grilling and eating together, that brings positive impulses! And we can all use them. Why wait until New Year's Eve to make your New Year's resolutions? You can try out new things now and surprise your loved ones with culinary delights for Christmas. Some suitable dishes, from the Christmas goose from page 70, Kalle's duck recipes (pages 40-45) or the game recipes from Rob's bowl (pages 12-17), invite you to grill again in this edition. A good mood is guaranteed!

Dario Cecchini, Italy's cult butcher, has managed to create a trendy meat business around himself. We visited him in Tuscany.

When it comes to high-quality accessories such as pots, pans or grill racks, many grillers swear by cast iron products. FIRE&FOOD has investigated the history of the popular metal, including at the Fondium Group's iron foundry in Singen.
