Chapter 161 God-Level Barbecue
The two children were overjoyed as they stepped on the soft fallen leaves.
They immediately started frolicking on the grass.
The two chased each other, their laughter ringing out.
Su Qingxue called out, "Don't run far, just play around here, understand?"
After saying that, she deftly opened the trunk.
Instead of wearing a dress, she changed into a pair of work pants and a t-shirt that were perfect for camping, and her high ponytail was tied neatly.
Her stunning face needs no extra embellishment; even in the simplest clothes, she is exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
It seems to be to prove to Chen Yuan that he is very capable.
She deftly pulled out aluminum alloy tent poles, tent pegs, and guy lines.
There were no complaints or fuss, no flustered movements, only highly skilled actions.
Chen Yuan wanted to help, but was refused.
"No need, I'm fine by myself. Why don't you find a chair and sit for a while? You've been sitting for so long, does your back feel uncomfortable? Is your body still aching? I have an ice pack with me, do you want me to put it on?"
Chen Yuan felt that it wasn't right for him to be waited on hand and foot, but Su Qingxue firmly refused, so he could only go along with it and waved his hand.
"No need, I'm much better now, don't worry. You play with them for a while, I'll take care of the rest."
A dozen minutes later.
A large tent was firmly planted on the grass.
Su Qingxue patted the dirt off her hands, turned around and raised an eyebrow at Chen Yuan.
"How about that? Aren't I awesome?"
Chen Yuan never hesitated to express his appreciation, immediately giving a thumbs-up in praise.
"Amazing, incredibly amazing! It felt like you finished it in the blink of an eye."
Su Qingxue helped set up the barbecue grill and other items.
Then they brought over an insulated box containing the food.
"I'll go watch the two little ones. Lunch is in your hands. It's getting late, and I'm actually a bit hungry. Hurry up and make it!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Chen Yuan carried a folding chair with a backrest and sat down in a sheltered spot.
With the system's repair, my left shoulder is almost fully recovered. Although there is still some pain, it is negligible.
Su Qingxue set up the tent, and of course, the task of cooking was left to him.
He opened the insulated box and was initially slightly surprised by the wide variety of materials inside, before he began making the product.
Fresh beef short ribs only need to be marinated with simple seasonings.
Next, they went to fetch water to wash the metal skewers and then skewered them.
Just then, the atmosphere of cooking fires in the camp gradually intensified.
Under the surrounding sky, many people were setting up portable grills or taking out portable gas stoves.
Whether it's grilling, frying, or deep-frying.
The skewers were brushed with commercially available barbecue sauce, and semi-finished meat skewers and frozen chicken wings were being grilled.
Some people, to save time, simply open the pre-packaged meal from the supermarket.
The foil wrappings are heated over charcoal, and they contain steak, corn, or other food.
The charcoal fire flickered between light and shadow.
The aroma wafted out.
Chen Yuan leaned back in his folding chair, unhurried.
[God-level barbecue techniques have been successfully loaded.]
He opened his eyes.
Everything about barbecue flashed through his mind.
For barbecue to taste good, besides ensuring the ingredients are fresh, the most important thing is the sauce.
Chen Yuan turned on the portable gas stove and slowly simmered an amber-colored sauce with rock sugar, star anise, cinnamon, light soy sauce, and other ingredients. Then he added coarse cumin and sea salt, and the sauce was ready.
After a simple marinating process, the beef short ribs are ready to be grilled.
The moment the beef ribs on the skewers were placed on the grill, Chen Yuan slightly tilted his wrist, adjusting the heat accordingly.
It's not something you just flip over whenever you remember.
Instead, after precise calculations, the meat is flipped over so that each side is evenly grilled by the charcoal fire.
The moment the grease drips.
He quickly shifted the grill rack slightly and gently squeezed the edges of the meat pieces with long tongs to lock in the juices.
When it's almost time...
Then sprinkle with freshly roasted Sichuan peppercorn powder and a little lemon zest.
The movements were fluid and natural, without any unnecessary frills.
He exuded the composure of a barbecue master.
He would occasionally adjust the position of the charcoal with tongs to ensure that the temperature remained within the optimal range.
Continue grilling over charcoal for a few more minutes.
A powerful yet layered fragrance filled the camp, tearing through the scents of everything else like a sharp sword.
It's the rich, creamy aroma of caramelized beef tallow, mixed with the subtle sweetness of caramel sauce, the fragrance of cumin, the numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns, and the unique, refreshing aroma of lemon zest.
The aroma, a blend of several scents, is not overpowering but possesses a strong penetrating quality.
A breeze blows across the grass.
The aroma then seeped into the space beneath each tent.
The college student in the next tent, who was eating a hamburger, suddenly stopped chewing, and his nose twitched involuntarily.
"Holy crap, what's that smell? It smells amazing!"
In another tent.
The uncle who was grilling half-finished chicken wings almost dropped the tongs on the charcoal fire.
"Whose barbecue is this? Why does it smell so milky? Is it grilled with butter?"
A girl holding a hand-drip coffee not far away smelled the aroma in the air, and then smelled the coffee in her own cup.
The coffee doesn't seem to smell as good anymore.
It's not just them.
The surrounding tents seemed to pause in their activity because of the aroma.
A few suppressed swallowing sounds were drowned out by the wind.
The children's stomachs rumbled, and they looked around anxiously, no longer even enjoying the snacks in their hands.
at this time.
Su Qingxue, who was in the distance, also smelled the fragrance.
"Youyou, your dad's pretty quick! He's already grilling the meat. Hmm, how about we play a little longer? Are you guys hungry?"
The two children hadn't felt hungry at first.
But after hearing what Su Qingxue said, and with the aroma being so tempting, both of their stomachs growled almost simultaneously.
Chen Youyou rubbed her stomach: "I'm hungry! Let's go eat."
Su Yuanrui nodded as well.
Su Qingxue held one child in each hand and walked to her tent in a few steps.
"It smells so good, senior brother! I can smell it from this far away. What are you roasting?"
"The beef short ribs you brought are really fresh, and I could tell they were top-quality as soon as they were grilled. Paired with my secret sauce, they'll be absolutely delicious."
"Stop tempting us, is it ready yet?"
Chen Yuan picked up the skewer, looked at it, and then put it down again.
"Let's wait one more minute; it's still just a little bit off."
Su Qingxue, Su Yuanrui, Chen Youyou.
The two adults and one child stared longingly at the beef ribs that exuded an endless aroma.
Amidst the fluttering of iron skewers.
The beautifully cut beef ribs were finally taken off the grill.
"Okay, eat slowly, it's very hot."
