Chef’s Table: BBQ featuring the Daintree’s very own Juan Walker

Australia has a rich history of cooking over fire – a history that began with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people tens of thousands of years ago. During Chef’s Table: BBQ, Hastie taps into this ancient knowledge with Kuku Yalanji man Juan Walker, owner and guide of Walkabout Cultural Adventures in Queensland’s Daintree Rainforest.

With Walker in the lead, Hastie learns to catch mud crabs from the damp sand on the edge of the rainforest. Within minutes, bright orange flames are licking at the freshly caught crabs.
