Hengoed

Sam and Shauna's meaty smoke-and-fire bonanza continues as they visit Cefn Hengoed in the Rhymney Valley. They are there to celebrate the achievements of the Cefn Hengoed Majestics, a unique marching jazz band, by putting on a feast of barbecued chickens to feed the players and the community they support. With 100 people to feed, Sam and Shauna organise a spectacular cookout of grilled chicken in Alabama white barbecue sauce, hasselback potatoes, Louisiana macque choux and a rainbow slaw. Sam and Shauna have a week to teach the members of the band how to cook the dishes. They also have to make an enormous bespoke grill large enough to hold the chickens, and together with the community they build a massive firepit to cook them.
