We are selling our barbecue but, like Monica, we eat outside when we can.

I'm an omnivore and I do not like barbecues. I am all for eating al fresco but like to sit down on a chair at a table with well prepared delicious food, whether it is moules frites in France or an elegant salad in this countryfood

Sorry - I should’ve said I’m a non-meat eater. I do eat some fish and certain types of seafood.

😁

I agree watermeadow I really can't be doing with meat substitutes that taste like turkey stuffing or cardboard.

Vegetarian here too - but I love a bit of barbecued salmon and some veggies, with a jacket potato. Only do it a couple of times a year, but there’s just something ‘nice’ about cooking and eating outdoors.

I love a barbecue, however I am a meat eater, but vegs on skewers are also great on the barbecue and on a summers afternoon or evening, it’s great to eat and drink in the open air.

You might be pleasantly surprised.

I’ve never understood the appeal of smoky food outside. It’s always more comfortable indoors and you know when the food will be ready when using an oven.
As a vegetarian I’ve never been given anything I’d want to eat at a BBQ, even if the host is also veggie. No meat usually means pretend meat which tastes like herby breadcrumbs. Nor do I want my meal in a doughy white bap which nowadays tastes very sweet.
I’ve been invited to one but think I’ll eat before I go.
