Whether you are a seasoned grill master or first
time firestarter, we’ve sorted everything to make
your BBQ a success. You don’t need a fancy
grill, almost any kind of BBQ will do - just make
sure you light it in good time, so the flames die
down and the coals turn white. If the weather is
against you, there’s even the option of finishing
everything on the stove. So let’s get fired up and
enjoy your bank holiday weekend!

return the tray to the oven to roast for another 10 minutes.
