Did everyone have a good time for Memorial Day? How were the hot dogs and burgers? You know...I had a BBQ too, but it was more Hong Kong style than American style. We had hot dogs too, but no burgers. Why? Because we don't grill on the metal grate. I don't think burgers will do very well on our apartus... the fork.
Everyone has to grill their down food! Other common BBQ items are pork chops, chicken wings, sausages, shrimp, corn, sweet potatoes, steak and squid. Yes. Squid. Very yummy! This is the pork chops...yum!
You might have noticed the grill lines on the pork chops. Well, we got lazy and put the grate back on :)
This is our hot dogs and meat balls. We like to glaze everything with honey!
We grill shrimps and mussels by wrapping them in foil and adding some black bean and garlic sauce in it. Sometimes, we also do veggie packs too.
My family likes to make fruit salad for BBQs. Basically, it's apples, pears, pineapple, potato and whatever else you want to put it. Just not mushy stuff like banana. Then, add mayonnaise or miracle whip and mix! Some people likes to put some black pepper or egg or fruit cocktail too. My sister-in-law put some dried cranberries this time.
Another dessert is watermelon! Very sweet and juicy! We also made a dessert soup with mung beans and seaweed. It's very good to drink mung bean soup and eat watermelon to counteract the "heat" of all the grilled food. Hong Kong style BBQ is best with tons of people who like to sit around the fire and grill. Hope you enjoy the food pictures!
