Rare KeithJenner Posted November 20, 2019 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I have seen them on the smaller ships but, now I think about it, not recently. Certainly they used to be fairly regular on the Spirit, either at the pool deck or Raffles terrace, but I don't recall seeing them this year. I've also seen it on Jewel Class ships in the past.

FLAHAM Posted November 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2019 They are not really barbecues. However, they are places you can get a burger, dog or chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted November 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2019 We've had the big charcoal grills brought out by pool on Sun, Dawn, Star, and Gem. It has been a few years since we've sailed so not sure if still doing. Never saw on the mega ships. Some ships also have an aft Great Outdoors which has a food serving area and kitchen grill.

mugtech Posted November 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Did not have on the Jewel in March out of Singapore, but very good Asian food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farkell Posted November 20, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 20, 2019 There was grilled food on the pool deck on the Gem last May. (Chicken, burgers, rice, veges etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkacmom Posted November 20, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2019 On the Jewel class ships I recall different themed bbq’s by the pool on sea days (loved the paella). They also have the great outdoors in the aft, a great outdoor area with different food options throughout the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roger001 Posted November 20, 2019 #11 Share Posted November 20, 2019 In the past, on the Jewel class ships I think ever cruise, weather permitting, there has been one or two days with a bbq type event out on the pool deck. Usually mid afternoon as I recall. However, the buffet and the grill area that is out on the pool deck both have burgers and such during the pretty long lunch hours. There will be no shortage of food available somewhere pretty much all day . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vince_g Posted November 20, 2019 #12 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Gem still has them on sea days. We had them every sea day on the Oct 25, 2019 Southern Caribbean sailing. They were at 11:30. Helps lighten up the stress on the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinaS Posted November 20, 2019 #13 Share Posted November 20, 2019 None on the bigger ships, but we had them on the Gem on some sea days on every previous cruise. They bring out big grills and do something a little different than standard burgers and hot dogs, which are always available on the pool deck.

GA Dave Posted November 20, 2019 #14 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I remember them doing an awesome grill party on the Norwegian Sea back in 2002. It was up on the pool deck and they had outdoor food almost every day for breakfast and lunch. They also had a midnight buffet in the casino!

Rare graphicguy Posted November 20, 2019 #15 Share Posted November 20, 2019 As mentioned, the GEM had the big grills out by the pool deck on sea days. Pretty cool, actually! Never saw them on the bigger ships, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
