Death to Jar Sauce

Our favourite sweary, anti-jar-sauce warrior is back . . . and he’s actually written a whole cookbook this time.

The world’s a confusing and chaotic place. We thought lockdown was over . . . it wasn’t. We hoped life would go back to normal . . . it hasn’t.

But Nat’s What I Reckon knows one thing is definitely still true- jar sauce can get f\*cked.

So, to help champions keep levelling up their cooking skills and making ripper feeds from scratch at home, Nat has created this collection of 25 sh\*t hot recipes that will get you out of a jam. This is stuff that’s simple, easy to follow and tastes delicious, like Honey B\*stard Chicken, Get F\*cked Roast Potatoes and Frownie Reversal Orange Chocolate Brownies.

There are no questionable ingredients here – purely Nat’s trademark humour, a big dash of cheekiness and some genuinely handy culinary tips to boot. Death to Jar Sauce will see you through the good times and the tough times, hopefully with a few solid laughs and some awesome food on your plate.

Recipes illustrated by Sydney artists Bunkwaa, Glenno, Warrick McMiles and Onnie O’Leary.

Author Biography

Nat is a comedian, cook, professional potty-mouth, musician, mental health advocate and award-winning, bestselling author who happens to hate writing his own bio so has to get his partner Jules to help. (Thanks, Jules.)

Nat’s platform has enabled him to hold up a tongue-in-cheek mirror to antiquated cultural norms, to promote a little kindness and to have a chat about his own battle with mental health. His comedy and cut-the-shit tutorials have collected a dedicated audience of over 4.5 million, thanks to his sweary delivery and underlying message of inclusivity and looking after ourselves.

When he’s not filming, cooking or purloining rosemary from a local traffic island, Nat can often be found indulging his love of rock’n‘roll and comedy, playing in bands and stand-up rooms around Australia and abroad. He is the author of three bestselling books- Un-cook Yourself, Death to Jar Sauce and Life- What Nat to Do.

Un-cook Yourself and Death to Jar Sauce won the Booktopia Favourite Australian Book Award in 2020 and 2021 respectively, with Nat donating the winning proceeds each time to Beyond Blue. All three books have been shortlisted at the Australian Book Industry Awards. Isn’t that nice.
