summertime and the livin' is easy.....? Whover thought that wasn't the one who had to do the grilling outside!
A mixture of things which need
different
cooking times, all on one cooking platform and a very fierce one too! Not easy to get everything 'a point' as it should be.....sardines well overcooked, chicken 'rare', hamburgers burnt.....you name it, you get it!
Start with the actual '
barbecues' ..... I've had various, from the simple
useful particularly for simple affairs, passing by the more refined, gas powered,
lava stone affairs, needing someone with strong arms to cart the gas bottle
as well as everything else, and up to the luxury models which are almost more luxurious than home kitchens and can't be moved around to picnics
I also had a traditional one from here which was very good, if rather large
but you could make (
God forbid) pizzas and had a
baking oven. You still needed the charcoal, of course, but the gas and lava stone ones are quite reasonable
The flames are probably the most attractive part of any barbeque, and the smoke the least! In Germany they have a thing called a 'Schwenkgrill', a simple affair, but very different
and they are very enjoyable to play with. The fire bit can be on the ground or on a 'container'and you pull the chain to make the circular roasting grill go around, this gives it heat all over. It also fascinates French children in particular!
If you're really intelligent, then you prepare the whole lot - marinaded and so on, present it in its natural state, and let your guests get on with it! That way it's their own fault if it's burnt!
(guaranteed raw on the inside....!)
So far as marinading is concerned I'll deal with that another time.
There are different ways of marinading for different products, for the next time around.....
Bonne Appétit!
