I'm happy all the time. You moan all the time.
Miserable folk just try to drag others down to their level. Sad.
Don't stop posting about how good things are, I buzz of seeing people do well - and the added bonus is I get entertainment from the whiners whining![]()

I must be in a minority if one. Never seen the point in home BBQ's when you have a perfectly good kitchen threw a set of doors.

Re: A right now thread
For me, cooking and eating outside on a sunny day is lovely and saves being stuck indoors, cooking in the kitchen. Plus I love the added smokey taste a good bbq gives to the food. It chars it in a different way to conventional cooking.Felix wrote: Sun Aug 08, 2021 11:24 pm I must be in a minority if one.

Re: A right now thread
Yeah that... but without the leaving it... or the pool.Potter wrote: Mon Aug 09, 2021 8:06 am I like cooking on the BBQ because there is no work to do afterwards, I cook, take the food off and leave it, every now and then I might give it a scrape but that's it, it never seems to get manky, perhaps the ants keep it clean, or maybe it's the heat, but it's never an issue, every now and then I empty the drip tray.
I cook all meat on the BBQ, we don't use anything else, so it gets used 4-5 times a week.
Like Tiepin says, there is also something nice about cooking outside, every now and then I'm standing cooking, looking at the garden and pool and I have a little moment to myself where I think life isn't too bad.
But BBQing meat means a beer too and sitting on the chair listening to music while it cooks... it's a good place to be.

If my place had a balcony or easy outside access, I'd definitely be into BBQ stuff!!

Re: A right now thread
Hmm, Probably been to to many shite ones where the host decided the sauce/flavour what would be whatever shite Tesco sells in a bottle. Splatter it on, they will love it. I was in Bakewell two years back with abut 30 other happy campers. Everyone was told bring a bit extra for the BBQ and/or make your own sauce/relish. That was a good BBQ as you got different takes on the sauces and some nice local produces sausages from all over the country. OK there was no steaks but i did enjoy that. That was my last one as i would not risk eating at them now as food needs to be gluten free. Even the cross contamination of cooking on the same grill can knock me ill. I like the idea of the ants doing the cleaning though

Would definitely do that if I had a balcony, but that's cos my place is so small - would be nice to have an actual kitchen too
But I'd prefer to actually BBQ!!
