All fantastic.
 
Everything is beautiful and looks really tasty.

"- chicken thighs and veg (chopped and made into wraps)" Here, we call the bigger, upper part the thigh. What you call a thigh, we call a drum stick.

Yeah my bad, it was drumsticks.

My wife is usually really picky about food on the bone but she's enjoyed all of this stuff. First time I spatchcocked a chicken on Saturday. We ended up eating at 10pm because we'd stayed longer in the pub than planned but it was super easy and quick plus with just the 2 of us, it's plenty of food
 
Did ribs, Mrs jbj is funny about food on the bone so I got them super tender and fall off the bone. She wasn't interested, they're too soft for me so I made a chilli. World beating. I made Mac and cheese on it too.

It would have been my grans 97th birthday yesterday so I had the family round for a BBQ.

Pulled pork, chicken shawarma, burgers (had sausages but never got round to making them) apple slaw, balsamic veggies and salt and chilli potato wedges and lots of sides and nibbles.

Absolutely amazing. The ghetto rotisserie was a pos so the chicken took a lot longer than planned and I was afraid it would overcook on the outside but it turned out great. No photos of the pork cooking as it took all day Saturday and wasn't taken off until around 1:30
