BBQs in Peckham Rye Park

[Brendan]

It wasn't me. :-$

Brendan, glad to hear you guys have been tamed, shame you cant make a decent lager though ;-) (Castle lager is it?), along with the Aussies and Americans. (and dont let us get confusing BEER with the chemical infused fizzy rubbish lager either!)

The colonials may be good at making a decent wine, but they sure damn well dont know how to cook meat properly.

What????

Sorry Android, I may have been too hasty in saying they could make a decent wine ;-)

men cooking is really only about three things

big scary animal

big burny fire

big sharp weapon

ergo barbequed tiger that i killed myself is the dish most likely to impress; limp tastelss sausages from iceland less so

Yep. That's it. Thin fizzy and full of chemicals is how I like my BEER (that's what it is right?). Just like my women.

I'm actually more of a real ale or Guinness man myself but I've chosen my corner now so I have to stick to it.

Not quite East Dulwich or Peckham Rye but in Ruskin Park, there are sometimes Portugues families who bring their own barbeque/food/entertainment.

Smells great to a hungry jogger!

[citizenED]

In Dulwich Park they could install a couple of Agas.

[Brendan]

lol. >:D

I go to Hisar on L.L for a BBQ - much easier

Today some people got told off for having a bbq in peckham rye park in the picnic area. they moved on. when the BBQ was cool enough to pick up

[Louisa]

Too right! It's a picnic area not a place to cook up a hot meal over open flames, especially when there might be kids around! I'd have hosed them down if they had refused to leave (if I were the park keeper).

[Brendan]

I must apologise for any colonial disdain for British bbqing ability I may have displayed in this thread. We went to friends for one on Saturday night and our Croydon born and bred host put on a very impressive spread indeed. Not a sausage or burger in sight and no flames to cremate them over.

[Keef]

I have to stick up for sausages on BBQ's, I love them in bread with ketchup! Burgers however are not so good! Lamb, now that is the best!!!! Oh and chicken.... and ribs!!!!

Which reminds me, my sister bought some lovely "ribs" for a bbq yesterday. Rigs off the bone, they were lovely, and you actually had some meat to eat, but still, ribs off the bone, something is very wrong there! :-S

[Brendan]

Oh I?m not against sausages at all! I was just illustrating a point to prove my own prejudice.

Rib-less ribs you say? Sound a bit GM to me.

Louisa haven't you ever tasted jerk chicken, or jerk pork? It's the ultimate BBQ fare and tastes gorgeous. If you need educating on the delights of BBQ check out the Jerk cookout this Sunday at the Horniman.

I see it had a whole page feature in on of those freebie papers last night.

My childhood hero Floella Benjamin will be there apparently.
