I've got the makings of some fine cheeseburgers right here.
Interestingly, when I checked the sell-by date on the plastic cheese-flavoured product slices still in the fridge from last summer, I note that they have a shelf-life of over 12 months. :hehe:
If something has a shelf-life of more than 12 months, it is essentially indestructible and will be as edible in 10 years as it is now. FACT.Quote:

Nope, BBQs are nice because you can sit in the open air with - hopefully - some sun on you and swill beer or G&Ts or whatever. The food just isn't all that. :shrug:
You could probably dispose of a body with that thing.Quote:

I took the young lad to Wow Burger weekend before last. The females had gone to the theatre but clearly neither of us are gay.Quote:

It was simply magnificent.
Side order of chilli fries which I miscalculated as spicy fries but in fact they were fries with chilli on top. Quite the beef feast.
Raw onions, pickles, jalapenos all optional extras.
Was it not terribly messy? I must admit that I'm coming around to the idea that less is more when it comes to the fillings of a burger. With an overfilled burger, you end up smeared in greasy filth and with bits of the burger dropping onto your plate/lap/shirt/trousers/dog.Quote:

My BBQ made its 2018 debut yesterday too. I had to eat my (home made) burgers with knife and fork as I don't have a bun with them.Quote:

It's not tandoori chicken, though, is it? Because tandoori chicken requires a tandoor. What you've got there is barbecued chicken tikka style stuff.Quote:

Mayonnaise? You dirty Dutch b@stard.Quote:
