Charcoal Challenge

Those lovely people at MoneySupermarket.com gave me £50 to host a barbecue. Here are some photos from last night’s splendid gathering. We had invited members of our church worship team and their families. Not everyone could be there- but about two dozen of us had a good time and the weather was great.
Menu – all provided within the £50 budget
First course

• pulled pork in bread rolls
• rainbow vegetable kebabs
• bbq baby corn
• green salad
• assorted dressings

Desserts

• home made ice cream [ vanilla, strawberry]
• Steph’s 4am cookies
• blackberries
• melon slices
• toasted marshmallows

Drinks

• tropical punch
• tea
• coffee

Our guests also brought other drinks, which was kind of them. I will say more about the actual meal preparation and the budget in another post, but here’s some photographs

Plates and cutlery on the table

Chairs – and drinks table – under the gazebo

Dressings – and fruit punch

Then everyone arrived, and after a prayer of thanks, we began eating in earnest!!
And here is the splendid Pulled Pork cooked by Bob

People queued up to fill their plates

Bob W. enjoyed the ice cream

An evening of eating and chatting together

Toasting marshmallows and relaxing

Then it got dark, and they all left

And we took things back inside and loaded the dishwasher.
Thankyou to everybody who made our evening so special.
