It's barbecue time!
It's barbecue time!
Most people go for the traditional sausages, hamburgers, chicken thighs and legs. And if you're lucky, salmon!

To me, real barbecues mean the smell of fresh fish and good quality meats.
Ultimately, I starting missing Portuguese Sardines.
They are the most traditional, most delicious barbecued fish you could wish for in Portugal (not that I'm biased )

Found this on Wikipedia which freaked me out a bit!!

Sardines play an important role in Portuguese culture. Having been a people who depended heavily on the sea for food and commerce, the Portuguese have a predilection for fish in their popular festivities. The most important is Saint Anthony's day, 13th June, when the biggest popular festival takes place in Lisbon, taking the people to the streets where grilled sardines are the snack of choice. Almost every place in Portugal, from Figueira da Foz to Portalegre, or from Póvoa de Varzim to Olhão has the summertime popular tradition of eating grilled sardines (sardinhas assadas).
My barbecue is not up and running yet, but cravings are cravings and one must obliged. The grill it is!
Regardless, I can now indulge my craving. Hope you enjoy it too!

  6. Remove the plastic and peel and seed the peppers.
