Hosting The Best BBQ In San Diego
The southern coast of California enjoys blissfully warm weather practically all year round. As a result, there are plenty of opportunities to have the best BBQ in San Diego. A barbecue is an outdoor meal. At its most basic, a barbecue is just meat cooked over an open flame in a specially designed grill and eaten outdoors.
A barbecue can be as simple as a few hotdogs cooked over an open grill for the family or it can be a major occasion. The summer months are punctuated with three traditional barbecue celebrations. These occur on Memorial Day in May, Independence Day in July and, finally, Labor Day, or International Workers Day, which is observed in early September.
In many families, the father takes the lead when it comes to outdoor cooking. He who can barely butter toast indoors is suddenly a television chef when it comes to presiding over the grill. This is especially true when it comes to actually lighting the barbecue. Easily accomplished by drenching charcoal briquettes in special fluid and then tossing a match, this rarely works the first time.
Barbecues offer a perfect opportunity to test drive your marinade recipes on your nearest and dearest. This applies to fish and chicken as well as all types of steaks. If it is too hot or you are too busy to make a production of it, you can still fire up the grill to heat up simple hot dogs and hamburgers. Vegetarians/vegans need not feel left out. There are plenty of recipes for char-grilled vegetables. Baked potatoes are no better than when they are covered in foil and placed directly in with the coals underneath the grill.
Salads are another feature on the barbecue menu. Tossed green salads, potato and pasta salads are familiar stalwarts. What a perfect way to show off your gardening skills. What could be better than freshly-picked tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, radishes and peppers, eaten in the fresh, warm sea air.
Garlic bread is another food that is best when made outdoors. Mix your finely chopped garlic with butter, low-fat spread or margarine early in the morning and allow the flavors to mingle. Slice baguettes lengthwise and then cut into individual portions, then slather with the garlic/butter mixture. Place butter side down on the grill and wait for the heavenly smells. Serve when lightly charred.
There is no such thing as too much food at a barbecue. Don't be shy about bringing a dish to someone else's barbecue. More likely than not, it will be appreciated. There is just something about fresh sea air and sunshine that brings out the voracious appetite in everyone.
When everyone has stuffed themselves senseless with meat, bread and salads, that is the time to bring out the desserts. Ice cream, jello and fruit salad all go down well at the end of the day. Don't forget the s'mores, the campfire delights that consist of two squares of chocolate melting on either side of a toasted marshmallow and held together with graham crackers. Alcoholic beverages are optional. If you are drinking, make plenty of water and soft drinks available and try to stick to low-strength beers when the sun is at its hottest.
