Following on from @Gegenpresser BBQ question, I thought I’d better remind folk of the strict rules of the bbq BBQ RULES We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity, as it's the only type of cooking a 'real' man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved. 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 organize 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.... (8) 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 and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts. (11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed 'her night off.' And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....
Theres only one concearn a man should have especially if hes not at home Hows he gunna keep is ale cowd
Funny you should say that mate cos every time we have a bbq my Mrs always insists on putting a salad out....guess what’s the only thing we end up throwing?
Sshhhh! These are the secret bloke rules! If the Mrs gets wind o these, I may have to get my own beer!!
Rule 12 Guests - Guests must bring some alcoholic donations, typically whiskey, wine, beer, cider, prosecco (for the salad maker). These aren't options they are collections as supplied. - Also bringing ice is optional - Bringing cake grantees a future invite
A carrot, marinated in dripping then deep fried in beer batter is one of my favourite veggie snacks. With fermented grapes served in a wine glass, part of my 5-a-day
This is exactly how it goes in our house. Bbq being lit straight after the match tonight . The only thing missed is the statement about half an hour after eating crozzled chicken: “It’s perfect for cooking on now. Just look at those glowing embers.”
