Our fmily Jubilee BBQ was the best!!!! It was held at my parents and lasted all day. My four children, along with my brother’s and sister’s children were all kept happy on the bouncy ‘Buckingham Palace’ castle we hired out!!! Lots of food, flowing wine, music and decorations throughout the day and then fireworks at night! It was a great day and enjoyed by all!

This is the first year we have had a garden so have been making the most of it by having several bbqs. My favourite moment was forgetting that I had a bbq going as I was painting my sons playhouse, when it finally registered that the nice smells were coming from our garden and not a neighbours I rushed over expecting to find a burnt mess, however the food was cooked perfectly and was by far the best I had ever managed to cook.

Should have been Corn on the cob, salmon with lemon slices and black pepper seasoning in foil, Pork sausage, home made minced beef, mixed herbs, Onion & garlic salt burgers with Home made BBQ sauce ( my secret recipe ) served with mixed salad tossed in my own comp winning recipe. .
200ml rapeseed oil, 80ml balsamic vinegar, ½ tsp ground ginger, 100ml dark soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey shake & store in fridge to use.

There wasn’t much meat left in the supermarket at that time so we mainly ate ribs haha

We had a family barbecue for my son’s fortieth.
I was so keen that it would be right that I made far too much food and had to live on the salads for days afterwards.

We’ve hardly had the BBQ out this year and missed going to Truckfest Scotland (which for us consists of 3 days of everything cooked on the BBQ including bacon and eggs in the morning!) so the best BBQ this year involved hubby throwing steaks on the BBQ in the pouring rain because he said “they don’t taste the same from the kitchen”
