When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
Routine...
(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill – beer in hand.
Here comes the important part:
(4) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
More routine....
(5) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
(6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.
Important again:
(7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
More routine....
(😎 The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
(10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
(11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed 'her day off.' And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women...
ENJOY YOUR BBQ THIS WEEKEND IF YOU'RE ARE HAVING ONE!
I hate BBQs they stink the place out. :boo: My neighbours in Perth have one, if I'm there and they use it, I have to run and get any washing in off the ropes or the smell seeps into it, then shut the windows and back door or I'm gagging like mad. :yell:
We often have friends over for Sunday lunch, or dinner in the evening, outside in the good weather but I always cook any meats ect in the kitchen oven, then take it outside to be served with all the usual salad things. :cool:
:grin: :grin: :grin:
We have a BBQ's when the weather is fine.. As do some of our neighbours.. If my knickers on the washing line have a hot dog aroma about them.. then so be it.. I have never noticed any dogs sniffing around.. :wink:

They're very popular and very good at it over here and it's my turn soon. Trouble is I'm useless at it. My mate who's now staying on until Xmas however is a genius at it. So hopefully with Annie, Bobo and Tillie joining in, I can avoid cheating by invoking a Catering Company!
Sounds about right except there are usually more beers involved...
Cassandra.. You can't get a catering company.. that's cheating.. The fun is the men braving the heat and knowing exactly when something is cooked or needs flipping..
Am I a grouch? yes I am, I hate BBQ's they stink.
I love BBQs, particularly the smell of spices :clap: :yay:
always worry about bits of chicken on BBQs after a very unpleasant experience
Mike
I always cooked chicken drumsticks in the oven first, before handing over to "the chef " :grin: :grin: :grin:
I'm not keen on barbecue cooking but my beloved and charming wife loves them, so that was decided upon. We had a disposable one yesterday but neither of us had a match so I lit it from the gas cooker.
When the smoke alarm eventually cancelled itself we had a very tasty supper.She is a very good cook.
:yay:
We brought out big gas BBQ with us frm the old house but haven't used it here yet. Time for a family gathering I think once the heatwave has passed.
How's this for a BBQ? It was in use at the Thurso County Show over the weekend. :rofl:

Can't do with barbecues, too much of a faff. I've been to some where my burger tasted of firelighter stuff or was raw in the middle and burnt on the outside. Far easier to just cook stuff in the oven and take it outside. Then of course there's the wasp problem....
We got rid of ours, but our son barbecues. We had a lovely one at the week end, there were 11 of us there. He's into marinading, and the chicken was well cooked Mike! Roasties from the air frier went well with it. As did the beer, wine, g&ts and sangria!

That's my method as well. Don't own one.

Times I've had this out with my OH. Waste of good breath of course, and you only get so many. Cook it in the oven, I say, put it on a tray and eat it outside. Goes over her head.
But you are missing out on the charcoal outside blood inside experience doing it that way.
Mmmm blood and charcoal.... (To be read in a Homer Simpson voice) :grin:
