Clim Tim's Birthday
The weekend just gone was Clim Tim’s Birthday (45) and he decided that given the nice weather we should begin Season 10 early and get BBQ’ing. Never one to miss a chance to BBQ we saddled up and headed on over for an away fixture.
The earliest we have ever done BBQ’ing before was April for Cairo’s birthday so to get our charcoal out this early was a real plus.
Given the early start and fluctuating temperature it was decided to take this old school BBQ style and so a nice plain and simple Sausage and Beef Burger was the choice of the day.
Clim Claire gave the ASDA Home Grocery Delivery a go given that their meat is supposed to have the best quality of all the supermarkets and so it was a good place to start.
We went for the recommended pork and apple speciality sausages from ASDA which cost just £2.28 for 6! Bargain ahoy….
Apologies but I cannot remember the name of burgers!
Cairo and I took along a few bottles of vino given there was going to be a big attendance as the extended Clim Tim’s family were coming. We went to our favourite wine place, Majestic Wines and brought along a South African White Wine called Boschendal Sauvignon Blanc which we first discovered at a friend’s wedding and is very nice indeed, and also a Majestic Rioja Crianza 2005 Berberana which I did not try but every said was great.
Back to grilling; given I had not used a BBQ forover a year and the last one was using a kettle BBQ rather than the open BBQ the Clims use I was a bit nervous but all came good. By the way, if you are deciding which BBQ to go for, go Kettle BBQ everytime, much more variety and quicker cooking times!
With a bit of careful rotation everything was cooked within 25 mins and everyone started making their own burgers using the ingredients Clim Claire had prepared.
All in all, a nice relaxed way to start BBQ Season 10. Game 1 was a success and so I am really looking forward to getting our kettle BBQ up and running and trying out some new BBQ recipes!
Wine for Game 1′s BBQ came from Majestic Wine
The BBQ recipe Sausages and BBQ recipe Burgers both came from The ASDA.
