I think this is a more of a photography challenge than usual. At least with my phone. Hot coals or fire shines and usually makes the meat come out very dark in the picture. It's time to get better at taking pictures!

A couple of possibilities - shooting when there's still daylight, even if there's not a lot, would open up more options for you. Also, if you have an outdoor light source you can position your cooker close to, the indirect light can get more illumination on your subject.



Here's a pic I took of some lamb chops pre-dusk:

Do you remember if you used a phone or a camera?

Those pics were using a Nikon D3100 DSLR(it's a low budget DSLR) with stock low budget zoom lens. I've been using my 7 year old Iphone of late - not the best quality photos, but it does a decent job. Once we finally get unpacked fully over here, I can get some good indoor backgrounds set up etc, hopefully soon.
