When Alexander “Volk” Volkanovski isn’t throwing punches in the Octagon, he’s out in the open air, living life on the land. And when the kitchen moves outdoors to his farm, things get rustic, hearty, and seriously flavour-packed.
Rolling paddocks, a few curious animals looking on, and a backdrop that screams homegrown Aussie pride. Volk fires up a woodfired grill, sets out fresh produce from the local markets (and his own garden), and lets the ingredients do the talking.
Think smoky lamb chops kissed by eucalyptus wood, charred veggies straight from the soil, and a homemade chimichurri that could knock your taste buds into next week. No fuss, no fancy plating, just honest food that’s all about flavour and good company.
Cooking on the farm strips things back to what Volk loves most, connecting with people over a great feed. It’s part cooking, part storytelling, and part reminder that good food doesn’t just fill your stomach, it fills your soul.
