Charlie Carrington is the chef and owner of Atlas Dining, a restaurant in Melbourne’s South Yarra that completely changes cuisine four times a year. The ambitious concept sees Charlie travel around the world for inspiration, then recreate his version of a cuisine for diners in his intimate restaurant. “It’s my lens on the food that I eat and enjoy,” he says. Charlie’s Atlas Weekly meal-box service is similarly globe-trotting, skilling up home cooks and exciting households with delicious easy-to-prepare dinners.

This is inspired by Texas barbecue but it’s served more like roast beef, carved at the table if you like. The rump’s smokiness is boosted by a barbecue sauce that’s built around smoked apple and vegetables, and there’s freshness and crunch from coleslaw.
