cooking in the garden

[Egoexpress]

Hello there,

I suppose this kind of "barbecue" party is not very common in your neck of woods. How would you refer to it, cooking in the garden? What would you call that pot?

Thanks.

No, not any kind of barbecue that I've ever seen. As far as the pot is concerned, the first thing that leaps to mind is "cauldron".

I would probably call it a stew pot. Is it actually in someone's yard? I might say something about "open air" cooking, but I'm not sure exactly what type of activity you're thinking of. Can you give more context?

Yes, actually it can occur in your garden, but mostly when I go fishing I set up those stands of the pot, light the fire, chop up the meat and the potato and all the ingredients and cook something delicious while I wait for a fish to get the bait.

I would probably call the entire activity a "cookout", especially if there were other people there with you. I think the term is fairly American. I don't know if everyone uses it.

I would say that it is more like camping. Or a "camp-out" (which is probably more of an American term).

But this is just cooking out of doors, not staying the night.

I should have been more specific. I meant that the cookery looks like the type one would use when camping. But, yes, you are correct!

I'd call that "open-fire cooking" or "cooking over an open fire."
