With the weather likely to stay nice for a.fortnight, bbq's will be popular.
But what are the best ones you've been to you gastronauts of planet swans?
Baked potatoes done in foil were a taste sensation, plus sausages well done.
And corn on the cob and banana in their skins done in foil. |  | | |  |

I love a good burger, it has to be a good one though. I generally make my own. |  | | |

Jersey royals have been superb this year. Pembs have been ok. What about gower new potatoes? They used to be buggers to boil. Sandy soil makes them disintegrate quickly under a rapid boil. | | | |

Jerseys have indeed been excellent this year as has asparagus. Don’t bother with bbq In UK anymore. Really don’t enjoy burnt sausages and burgers better in a big pan to imitate a US flat top.
Best barbecue has to be in Athens GA. Ribs, brisket and wings. Collard Greens, pit beans and Texas Toast. No going back after real southern food.. [Post edited 24 Jun 2018 0:13]

I make my own burgers when I can be bothered. They do taste better. Here's my recipe, nicked off Jamie Oliver.
Ingredients (makes 4)
- 1 lb of good quality ground beef, preferably natural or organic
- Half a medium red onion, finely diced
- 1 large egg
- 1 handful of fresh bread crumbs with crust removed
- 1/2 tbsp coriander seeds, crushed (powdered coriander is fine)
- 1 small pinch of cumin seeds, crushed (ditto)
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- salt and freshly ground pepper
- 4 whole grain hamburger buns.
Fry the diced onion in a little butter or oil until soft and allow to cool (you'll burn your hand otherwise!).
Mix and scrunch all the ingredients together including onion in a glass bowl. Divide into 4, mould each one into the shape of a cricket ball in your hand, then gently flatten into patty shape.
Brush grill plates lightly with oil. Place burgers on grill and cook rotating after 3 minutes, roughly 6 minutes per a side, until burgers are cooked through but still juicy. Toast hamburger buns placing cut side down on grill.
Add favourite fixings and stuff your face. [Post edited 24 Jun 2018 9:31]

Mrs uses that recipe when she makes them but hasn’t since Lad moved away, she uses crushed Jacobs crackers instead of bread crumbs though. |  |

Generally just ground ribeye (something with some nice tasty fat), and egg to bind, black pepper and some garlic salt.
I tend to just wing it.
Lamb is good but for bbq's I prefer the ease of minced meats so koftas & burgers, some chicken breast fillets cooked indirectly are good too. | | | |

I always think that one of the biggest improvements in taste using a bbq rather than conventional cooking is whole fish. Spectacular when done on the bbq, particularly freshly caught and bbq’d on the beach.
Red snapper freshly caught and cooked on the beach is stunning. | | | |

Mackerel caught off the kayak and cooked on the kettle bbq with a squeeze of lemon is something I do sometimes. |  |

Monkfish is a "meaty" fish. I've had red snapper in the brasseria in wind st. A taste sensation Lisa!

Do people use foil or just straight on the "grill"? | |

No idea of the name. Was next to the railroad with a few other shops. Pretty basic food on trays but a good selection. Some good places to eat in Athens and good local beer too. We have a partnership with UGA, so was lucky enough to get some time out there a couple of years back. Would like to go again sometime. | | | |

If you're having a group round, a great idea is to get a leg of Lamb.
De-Bone it then butterfly it (ask your butcher if you don't know how.
Score the meat about half an inch deep then put in a marinade of Olive Oil, Crushed Garlic (lots), Marjoram / Oregano / Rosemary (lots), lemon zest (not juice) about three. Generous seasoning of salt and pepper. Leave for two hours at room temp.
Then cook the whole thing on a medium barbeque until it's nicely charred on the outside and blushing pink in the middle. Should take about 15 mins each side.
Absolutely stunning. | |
