New summer barbecue series in north Norfolk countryside
A north Norfolk farmhouse restaurant is launching a series of themed summer barbecue events.
Nest Farmhouse, located in the North Norfolk countryside, has announced the launch of its 'Pondside Sessions', which will be taking place by the pond every weekend throughout the summer.
The events are set to bring a variety of food and drinks each weekend in partnership with two local drinks producers.
The list of producers includes Malt Coast, Barsham, Duration, Brancaster Drinks, Burn Valley, WhataHoot, and Cobble Hill.
The first session, scheduled for July 25 to 26, will feature the popular British smash burger, offering a choice of classic or spicy options.
The following weekend, August 1 to 2, will see a traditional smoky pit barbecue inspired by the American South, with dry rubbed, smoked beef brisket in crispy ciabatta, and sticky pork ribs.
On the weekend of August 8 to 9, attendees can enjoy smoky jerk chicken wraps.
The fourth weekend, August 15 to 16, will focus on hot dogs, offering both classic and chilli dog options.

The final weekend, August 29 to 30, will be inspired by South America, offering beef rump or bavette steak sandwiches grilled over open flames.
Nest Farmhouse's location offers views across Norfolk's open skies, providing a relaxed setting for the events.
Each pond-side session will have table seating, standing areas, and picnic-style spots.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own picnic mats if they wish to sit on the lawn.
Blankets will be provided as the sun sets.
The sessions will run on Friday evenings from 4pm to 9pm, and Saturdays from 12pm to 5pm, with the event on Saturday, August 9, ending at 4pm.
All events are walk-in only, though reservations are available for groups of eight or more.
