    I dunno about obscure, but what is lovely (and always gets a good reaction) is doing a whole chicken on a bbq by shoving a half full can of beer up its hole and doing a dry rub on the outside of the skin (Paprika, cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, then rub it with a lime)
    Put two holes in the side of the can about half way up (obviously drinking half it can be good) make sure to take the ring pull off, put it up the chicken and put on bbq for about 45 minutes.

    The end result is delicious, most succulent chicken that you have ever tasted.

    Can't remember the name of the place but a few people have told me of a butcher in Terenure/Tempelogue that sells all sorts of crazy meats.
    Kangaroo and all sorts of mad stuff. Maybe someone on here knows of the place?

    Cook the entire BBQ on the BBQ... IE put nothing on the grill then when people arrive tell them how creatived you have been. They will defo love you for that and you are bound to multiply your friends by 10!!!!

    Obscure thing- Eggs!

    Obscure thing- Eggs!

    I have actually done eggs on the BBQ and I have pictures to prove it.

    You have to feed the vegetarians something....

    Banans, wrapped in tinfoil!!!............. sweet as
    A classic tradition in my house.

    Slice the banana skin lengthways and put in a line of chocolate buttons. Wrap it up in tinfoil and place in the dying embers of the barbie for 5 minutes.

    Take it out, open it and put a line of spray cream down it.

    They were known as Metal Willies during my childhood. They are still called that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,513 ✭✭✭Sleipnir


    A whole suckling pig. Got one for a mate who's mad about barbequeing for Christmas.

    I remember being in the queue behind all these auld dears picking up their turkeys and geese. Butcher comes up to me and asks me what I want
    "I'm here to pig up a whole pig please"

    Got a lot of odd looks walking out of the place with the piggywig's trotters sticking out of a black sack.

    Tastes fantastic but you need a pretty big bbq.

    I made several of these at Tom Dunnes a BBQ some time ago ... most of the assembled were aghast, until they tasted that sweet, gooey goodness. Oh yeah!

    We didn't have spray cream - my recipe calls for a mix of dark and white chocolate.

    Metal willies ... hehehe.

    There will be no veggies at my BBQ! By order of management.

    Nope, Clonakilty. As were the black/white puddings.

    Sometimes you just can't help it - you have to invite them. Just do them up some rabbit food and they will be fine.

    I'm a big fan of crab claws.
    Get the biggest ones you can find and lash them on the bbq whole.
    They take about 15 minutes and then you simply crack them open with the back of a heavy knife or a nutcracker.If you buy them in somewhere like wrights of howth they're really cheap too.
    Pigeon breats are also something i have bbqd..they can be hard to find though so ideally you'd need to shoot them or know somebody who does.
    Wrap the breast portions in bacon and lightly cook them for about 5 minutes,turning frequently.
    If you have deep pockets you could try bbqing scallops,they need to be absolutley fresh though and you'll barely get a mouthfull for a fiver!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,333 ✭✭✭✭itsallaboutheL


    Degsy is fairly obscure,

    i reckon the most obscure thing you could BBQ would in fact be Degsy, wrapped in tinfoil and covered in chocolate buttons...

    You do know that barby is not just a hot blond :eek:.

    It can also be the way you feel the day after a BBQ.

    We had a loverly BBQ yesterday.

    Some sheep, some cow, some pig, and some roosterbrood to go with it :D.

    Oh, and lots of beer.

    Well, it isn't really obscure but I have never heard of someone putting a cucumber on a BBQ or a carrot for that matter.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭Red_Marauder


    Hardly obscure, but barbecued aubergines are delicious...

    That chicken in beer (or rather, vice versa) idea sounds great, definitely want to try that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,177 ✭✭✭DenMan


    Lambs liver. My Dad eats it as he fry's it on the pan. I'd imagine you could do it on a bbq. I wouldn't personally. :eek:
