Cooking and Recipes

[Farseer]

ok then does anyone have any ideas for what to make/cook at a barbeque?
I really don't care much for them so I really don't have any repertoire of food ideas! But we have a community BBQ coming up so I really should go.
So far I have ..... sausages...... pretty original hey!

Cooee!! Where are you, Nuytsia?!

I missed this post previously but a potato and bacon bake (kept warm) or zucchini slice/quiche is always a great accompaniment to take to a barbie.

Kebabs are always popular as well - you can have meat and veg ones prepared to cook or even fruit ones kept cold to take along to go with dessert in summer. For the benefit of others, I do mean "meat and vegies on a skewer" or "shish kebab" here when I say "kebab". I say this because I once went into a new kebab shop in Longreach and ordered ten kebabs for my husband and one of my sons, and the rest of us had ordered Chinese from next door...you can imagine my surprise when they brought out ten doner kebabs, as in, roasted meat and salad stuff in wraps...I was like, ??!! I'd never even heard of them before or knew there was any other kebab than a "shish" kebab. Suffice it to say we had plenty to eat that night and the next day...and the business shut down not long after!

Sorry...just read redchild's post re kebabs!

Are you being fair dinkum about the whale meat, 'thul? We have camels here so eat camel meat from time-to-time (well, everyone else except for me!). My husband has eaten kangaroo meat down in South Australia, but I could never bring myself to try it. We also eat crawchies (or freshwater yabbies as many seem to call them) from our turkey's nests/dams etc but all else is pretty straightforward and not unusual.
