First barbecue on the deck of a houseboat

Advertisement

Finally it was time for the barbecue premiere! A few days ago we inaugurated our barbecue here on the deck of the houseboat. It was the first time we grilled this year, and also the first time we tried our grill at all. A bit funny perhaps, considering that we bought the grill a year and a half ago. But then we left on our 1-year-long motorhome trip and rented out the houseboat ...

A little barbecue while travelling in Europe

There was not much grilling during our 1-year European motorhome holiday in 2015. We brought a small, handy Weber charcoal grill that we like, but it turned out that charcoal grills are banned on almost every campsite in Europe.

We grilled a few times when we stood on a gravel pitch in Portugal, but otherwise it was mostly other cooking. We dragged the grill a little unnecessarily if you say so ... But now we got the chance to grill on the deck of the houseboat instead!

Barbecue premiere with goodies

What ended up on the grill this time? Well, it was various goodies like marinated chicken, sliced halloumi and asparagus. We have never grilled asparagus before, but it was delicious! We first cooked it for 30 seconds in a pan, drizzled on some olive oil and then grilled it for a few minutes. Asparagus will definitely end up on our grill again!

Another favourite to grill is halloumi - soooo good! I could almost skip the chicken and just eat halloumi and asparagus. On the other hand, marinated chicken is delicious. We usually choose to marinate in red wine marinade. This time, we chose to serve our grilled goodies together with some pickings, like tomato, mache salad, melon and strawberries. Fresh and crisp! What is your favourite thing to put on the grill?
