There’s something alluring about the aroma of sizzling food on the grill, and we get to experience that every day in The Swan kitchens thanks to our state-of-the-art Josper Oven. If you haven’t yet tried something on our menu cooked in this way, we think after reading about it you’ll be booking a table at The Swan in minutes!
What Is A Josper Oven?
Often referred to as the “grill of the future,” the Josper is a unique combination of a grill and an oven, seamlessly blending the intense heat of a charcoal grill with the precision of an oven, without compromising on flavour or tenderness. Developed in Spain, this marvel of culinary engineering has taken the world by storm, revolutionising the dining experience.
The Charcoal Charisma
At The Swan, we believe that charcoal is the soul of a great dish. The Josper oven’s cooking chamber is powered by premium-quality charcoal that imparts a distinct smoky flavour to the dishes, creating a culinary masterpiece that are impossible to replicate with conventional cooking methods.
Sealing in Juicy Perfection
One of the secrets behind the Josper’s superiority lies in its ability to retain the natural juiciness and tenderness of the ingredients. As the intense heat sears the surface of the food, it forms a caramelised crust that locks in the moisture, resulting in succulent, perfectly cooked dishes every time. One of the reasons our chefs love cooking with the Josper is its exceptional temperature control.. From juicy steaks to delicate seafood and veg side dishes, our chefs can ensure each item is cooked to perfection.
Unleashing Culinary Creativity
The versatility of the Josper oven knows no bounds. Our talented chefs at The Swan get to unleash their culinary creativity with it, experimenting with a wide array of dishes that elevate a humble BBQ dish to an extraordinary dining experience. We have regular cook offs and change our menu in line with seasonality, so this means that our chefs are always putting the Josper oven to the test in new and exciting ways – so if you’re the adventurous sort who’s tried everything on the menu, don’t worry, there’ll be more to explore soon!
The Perfect Sides
Our chefs love the finishing touches, so that’s why our menu is developed to include perfect sides that pair harmoniously with our Josper oven dishes. Our top recommendations include roasted Mexican corn cobettes or for a fresh and tangy option, our charred vegetables.
The Joy of Sustainability
Beyond its culinary brilliance, the Josper oven also aligns with our commitment to sustainability at The Swan. The oven’s energy-efficient design and the use of natural charcoal contribute to reducing our carbon footprint, ensuring that our food is not only delicious but also environmentally responsible.
