Re: Sunderland Meat Hound

Sunderland Meat Hound

Hi all, I am Chris from Sunderland and a mega BBQ fan

I am a lazy BBQer and use gas, but a fan of great food nonetheless. Up here it is cold all year but this does not stop us cooking out, and preferably with chilli dishes with the chillies I grow.
I look forward to talking to you all and getting ...
