Shrimp On The Barbie

   After doing alot of researching, the Cap'n decided to get a BBQ that met our needs, would mount securely, and be easy to take off and easy to put on. We also wanted it to be easy to clean, and we didn't want it to drip grease and such down the side of Cerridwen. We also wanted it to be big enough to accommodate a bunch of food for when we have people come hang in the cockpit, or make a passage, or for beach parties, etc. It has a stand, but we opted not to get the stand as it would just have to be stowed, which means I would have to find somewhere to stash it. It can sit on a stump, or on a picnic table, etc.
The BBQ is a Sovereign which is made in Australia. We went with the Bravo model which is the smaller version and comes with the 'In~Line' burner and flat plate grill, which we were skeptical of at first, and fully intended to get the slotted plate, but it is not needed as much as we thought. It also comes with a 'oven rack' (for the lack of not knowing what the proper name is), BBQ oven wires is what the instructions call it. I was thinking we could just put it on top of the flat plate, to drain excess fat, or make the BBQ lines we all love on our BBQ food. 
 So chef Shine decided to make some yummy fajitas as the first meal cooked on the new BBQ. As usual it was delish. He is pretty happy to have a grill again. The next day we had pizzas, and they were pretty awesome too, made with all the yummy tomatoes and basil we got from the farmers market, and threw some mozzarella on the top, with pesto on the bottom. 
  I am such a lucky bunkmate, to have this man as my partner in crime.
