Chapter 48 47. Do you have a girlfriend?
A picnic, a project that requires cooperation among many people, can actually reflect a person's hands-on ability.

"Here, here, here. We've washed the meat. You boys can go cut it."

"How do you cut it?"

"Here, just cut it into small pieces like I did."

Everyone rolled up their sleeves, divided the work and cooperated to wash ten pounds of the best beef and mutton, separate the fat and lean parts into two parts, and cut each into small pieces of one cubic centimeter.

Anyone who knows about barbecue knows that it is best not to marinate this kind of meat.

It won’t taste good if the freshness is destroyed.

Next, the eight people sat on small stools and threaded the meat onto bamboo skewers that had been bought in advance, according to the ratio of four lean meat to one fat meat.

These operations were not very complicated. Several beautiful girls chatted and exchanged glances frequently.

It can be clearly seen that Zhou Mingyuan and Xiong Yao among the boys are efficient and skilled in their work, and they are obviously men with life experience.

Unlike the other two who are clumsy in their movements, it can be seen that they have never done any housework in their daily lives.

Maybe he's a mama's boy.

After all the ingredients were processed, everyone looked at each other and stared at the oven in a daze.

It is not uncommon for boys and girls aged eighteen or nineteen to be able to cook, but not many of them have experience in barbecue.

This is a technical job that is easy to learn but difficult to master.

"You all don't know how to do it?"

"Okay, I'll do it. This stove isn't that big, it's enough for one person."

Zhou Mingyuan smiled and took a few pieces of charcoal, put them into the small iron oven, lit it, and fanned it.

Spread the meat skewers evenly with five fingers spaced apart. Turn the skewers with your left hand and apply oil with a brush in your right hand. Pinch a handful of salt and shake three times.

The fresh meat quickly changed color under the fan, and then sprinkled with cumin, pepper and chili powder.

When you smell it in the wind, you will be filled with fresh fragrance.

"Very professional"

"It smells so good! I didn't expect Zhou Mingyuan to be able to grill meat."

"Hey, he's quite handsome from this angle~ (whispering)"

Although no one knew how to barbecue, Zhou Mingyuan's movements were so smooth and fluent.

It looks very powerful at first glance.

He was wearing a simple solid-color T-shirt and an apron around his neck. His hands were working on the grill, and his angular profile melted in the sunset.

It's pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.

"Come, come, try my exclusive barbecue~"

When the fat turns into a crystal clear light yellow color and starts to sizzle with oil, it means it is cooked through.

The plate full of grilled skewers was brought to the table, and Zhou Mingyuan immediately gave everyone a little food shock.

The young people who had been waiting for a long time started to scramble for the food. They had just drunk several glasses of wine and were waiting for the barbecue to be served.

“Whoa whoa, it’s so hot!”

Zhong Yuyun took one and blew hard to cool it down, her little face flushed with anxiety.

The taste is good!
The gravy oozes out as soon as you take a bite, accompanied by the spiciness of chili powder and the fresh fragrance of cumin and pepper, and swirls in your throat.

She couldn't help but squint her eyes and was about to speak when she was interrupted by another voice beside her.

"Wow Zhou Mingyuan! The meat you grilled is so delicious, isn't it?"

The delicious food was like a sensor, reaching directly into Zhao Xueliang's sparkling eyes.

She didn't even wait to swallow the first string before she started exclaiming.

"How did you grill this? It doesn't taste at all like the barbecue we have in Shanghai."

“It’s really delicious.”

Everyone tasted it one after another, gobbled it up and gave it their approval.

"Have you ever practiced at a barbecue stall?"

Delicious beef and mutton, a dozen beers, and the sounds of collision and joy are constantly intertwined.

"It's not that I've practiced, but someone taught me a few tricks."

Zhou Mingyuan smiled and waved his hand.

"What technique? Can you teach me?"

Sichuan girl Xu Ning loves cooking and immediately became interested.

"For example, the temperature of the charcoal is very particular."

Zhou Mingyuan extended his hand and pointed under the stove. "The charcoal needs to be completely burnt white. Only when the fire is fully heated can the skewers be added to make it taste good."

"why?"

"Because it's not the carbon that cooks the meat, but the hot white ash formed by the carbon."

The man gave another example.

"You know why some people's grilled skewers turn out black? They're burnt on the outside and raw on the inside, and the skewers might even break. This is because the carbon isn't fully cooked."

"Oh my god. You know so much. You're a real life expert."

Zhao Xue stared at Zhou Mingyuan intently and sighed.

"Hey, Lao Zhou, many stores now use electric ovens. Isn't it easier to use this?"

Cai Zhipeng, who had zero hands-on ability, finally found a chance to interrupt and asked curiously.

The girls' eyes focused on Zhou Mingyuan made him envious from the bottom of his heart.

Next time, buy an electric oven, so you can use it yourself, right?

"Old dish, even the electric oven is not that simple."

Zhou Mingyuan took a bite of edamame and shook his head slightly.

"The electric oven has a low temperature, and the key is the ingredients."

"It's difficult to grill the meat directly, so the meat on the electric grill must be thoroughly fed with oil and seasoning, or brushed with oil at any time while grilling."

"The advantage of electric grilling is that the temperature is constant, so it's less likely to burn. It's more suitable for large skewers of meat, such as those with oily edges."

"And it can make the meat pieces stick together more tightly, which locks in the juices, leaving a crispy crust on the outside and juicy on the inside."

"The downside is obvious: it lacks that smoky, charcoal flavor, and sprinkling smoked paprika and red bell pepper won't do either."

".I learned that. Awesome."

Cai Zhipeng gave a thumbs up and drank the beer in front of him.

Not only Cai Zhipeng who asked the question, but the remaining seven people also widened their eyes.

Professional, too professional, right?
Especially Zhong Yuyun, she could hardly suppress her curiosity.

If she wasn't a high school classmate who spent every day with her, she would have thought that this guy was a master chef with two and a half years of experience in grilling skewers!

I haven’t heard that anyone in his family runs a barbecue restaurant?

In fact, the reason why Zhou Mingyuan understood all this can be traced back to his rich experiences in his previous life.

After founding his own law firm, every time he went on a team-building picnic, he would specially hire a barbecue chef to take full charge and ensure the dining experience.

After a few interactions, they became friends. Seeing that Zhou Mingyuan was generous and magnanimous, the other party simply taught him some unique skills.

It’s true, it’s very effective in picking up girls.

Whenever Zhou Lu took a girl to the terrace of his villa to have a barbecue, he could see her bright starry eyes.

It is a surprise with a strong contrast for any girl to see such a capable man cooking.

Unstoppable, completely unstoppable.

"Yunyun! I want to ask you something."

Zhao Xue pulled Zhong Yuyun's arm, leaned close to her ear and whispered.

"Does your high school classmate have a girlfriend?"

After saying that, the girl quietly pointed at Zhou Mingyuan under the table.

"what?"

Zhong Yuyun was stunned for a moment, and it took her a few seconds to react. She bit her lip and shook her head.

"No, I don't think so."

Zhao Xue didn't reply, patted her shoulders a few times, moved back to her original position from her ear, and picked up her own beer cup.
