π©πͺ "Quiet Please... We're BBQ-ing!
π₯ "First BBQ of the season at Aachen West Park - and the smoke signals could be seen from Belgium!" π Location: Aachen West Park BBQ Area π‘οΈ Perfect Conditions: 22Β°C and sunny - the ideal weather for our meaty feast! Why This BBQ Was Legendary 1οΈβ£ The Smoke Show π¨ Our grilling area looked like a dragon's lair (in the best way possible) Nearby joggers either sped up or joined us - no in-between! 2οΈβ£ The Menu π Classic German Bratwurst (because tradition) Marinated chicken skewers (secret family recipe) Grilled corn with chili-lime butter (game changer) 3οΈβ£ Liquid Gold π» Ice-cold KΓΆlsch beers (when in NRW...) Aperol Spritz for the "fancy" friends Pro Tips From Our Ashes β Charcoal Hack: Kaufland's charcoal boxes = steady burn for hours β Avoid: Woolworth's flimsy boxes (our first one collapsed like a house of cards) π΅ Playlist Essentials: "Sweet Home Alabama" (for the American exchange students) "99 Luftballons" (when the beers really kick in) The Aftermath By sunset, we had: Fed 12 hungry students Converted 2 vegans (temporarily) Created core memories (and possibly a small forest fire) #BBQMasterclass #Aachen r #GrillOrBeGrilled #GermanTradition #ParkLife
