Temperatures to soar as chefs cook up BBQ feast

As revellers act the goat in Killorglin for the next few days, Kerry folk in the north of the county are today beginning to prepare for a huge barbecue feast — of rump steak, pig on a spit along with lamb, chicken, goat, pheasant and fresh fish.

Kerry native John Relihan, a senior sous chef at Jamie Oliver’s Barbecoa restaurant in London, has brought 45 BBQ chefs from around the world to his home village of Duagh, near Listowel, for the unique event.

All the money raised over the weekend will go to the restoration of the village’s church bell tower.
