Barbecue bread

I'm at home for the Easter weekend this year and we're having a barbecue. I thought it'd be fun to try doing some form of bread actually baked on the barbecue itself. Unfortunately, we've got nothing that would really work as a Dutch oven, so it's really got to be a bread that will stand being grilled rather than baked. Some form of bannock seemed like a good, simple option - and then I came across this website, which shows a simple bannock being grilled over an open fire on a stick. It looks tasty and involves fires and sticks - what more could you want?!

Bannock-on-a-stick
Ingredients
  • 100g Plain flour
  • 1tsp Baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 3tbsp Butter
  • 2tbsp Milk
Method
  1. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together and then rub the butter into the mixture.
  2. Add milk slowly to incorporate into a dough.
  3. Form into a ~1cm thick slab and wrap around a stick and grill over a fire or put on the barbecue, turning as needed.
Here's the dough.
Ready for the barbecue.
