BBQ party

[lynniepie]

Hello everyone, I have just joined today. I need to find my way around I think.
My son is wanting a BBQ party and I was looking for suggestions for the kind of things that should be included. Obviously we will have the usual suspects - chicken, burgers and sausages etc but I was wondering if anyone knew of any unusual or different things we could have? Thanks.

[ummmm]

Fish
Corn on the Cob
Kebabs

[lynniepie]

Thank you. Quick answer!

[ummmm]

I'm surprised you didn't get more. I think they're discussing stuff in Body & Soul.

Welcome anyway :-)

-Large flat mushrooms with garlic butter
-Chicken legs marinated in Tahini paste
-Lamb cutlets
-Prawns
-Scallops
-Crayfish

Bananas with a flake in the middle wrapped in foil is amazing. Serve with a dollop of vanilla ice cream. Not very sophisticated but so good!

Nobody mentioned marshmallows on sticks to finish with. They are essential.

Marshmallows on sticks are a must.

split open banana skins, cut into the banana, squish chocolate buttons into the cuts, close the skins, cover in foil, throw on the bbq.

My favourite BBQ recipe

Cut some lamb into pieces (shoulder is best - you need a fatty piece to make the meat moist)
Stick the lamb in a dish, drizzle with olive oil, a few cloves of garlic and a pile of fresh rosemary. Leave to marinade overnight in the fridge.
Thread the meat on skewers & stick on the BBQ.

You can put whole bananas on the BBQ. When the skins have gone dark, split them open & serve. I let the kids put squirty cream on theirs...and the adults get a slug of dark rum on theirs.

Tinned or fresh pineapple slices - cover in brown sugar, wrap in foil, stick on the BBQ for a few mins & serve.
