    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Hardly obscure, but barbecued aubergines are delicious...

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

    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:

    Get a large square of tinfoil. Overlap rashers on it. Put a layer of thinly sliced potatoes and then mushrooms over this. Finally place some mince meat mixed with onion, spice etc in the middle of this. Fold the rashers with the potatoes and mushroom over the mince and wrap in the tinfoil.

    Cook on the barbeque, or even better a wood fire at a high heat for about 25 minutes. On the barbeque you could take it out and then give it a bit of a finish on the barbeque for more flava. The rashers will have fused together to form a delish meat wrap. The mince should look a bit pink, but this'll be because of rashers.

    Any who went to scouts can testify to the greatness of the cowboy meal.

    Oh that would be delicious but you would want to season it first, salt, black pepper, Cayenne pepper and flour.

    Pizza. No one expects pizza at a BBQ let alone on the BBQ, but it's dead easy and always goes down well.

    I did the crab claw thing, but was both wasted and full of food at the time.

    Pizzas arent made for cooking on the bbq..seriously..how do you flip them without leavingthe topping stuck to the grill??
    BBQ is for meat and fish or maybe kebabs if you're one of those vegetarian people in search of attention.
