British BBQ Society Forums

Gavin, quick question. You mentioned before you can go in the back walk in fridge, is this still the case as it didn't seem open for the public. Just the workers kept going back there. They only had 1 bad looking bone in shoulder so I asked if they had more and the guy went out there. I spoke to a ...

For quick math i'll leave the other figures the same (slaw and buns) selling again at £5 each would ...
