Settled for roast pork in the conservatory with the door open.
Anyway, the OFFICIAL start to BBQ season is/was 1st May, running to Christmas Day.
Lots of nice smells from braver neighbours sausage burnings though.
Nonsense. All year round, thank you.
Admittedly less so when the clocks are not forward, but it's lovely to have the smell of charcoal on a cold winter day, and better yet to eat BBQ smoked food in the depths of winter. I wouldn't bother with it for a couple of sausages, but for a beef joint or a bird, it's very rewarding.
