As summer comes to a close for another year I felt it was time for an indoor BBQ meal to help us through the winter. Although it hasn’t been much of a summer in the UK and I should image the planned BBQs this year were most indoors away.
The weather in the UK is so unpredictable that we will probably have a heatwave at Christmas. In case there isn’t a warm winter I thought this easy, quick dinner will help to the winter cold at bay. It’s so tasty we had to share the recipe with you.

Smokey BBQ Pork Noodles was a great mid week meal. We ate this dish with noodles but you could eat it with rice as well. All of the ingredients in this dinner are freezable so you can freeze it and eat it on another occasion. We enjoyed this meal on a Wednesday night but it could be made into a great easy weekend dish too. However you decide to eat this stir fry, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
