Instructions
Prepare your BBQ at medium fire (+- 200*C/400°F)
Roughly cut the onions and celery
Take a Dutch Oven, put it on your BBQ and melt some butter in it. When the butter has melted you toss in the vegetables.
Season the vegetables at taste with Santa Maria Style seasoning and let them simmer for a while until they get soft.
Add a bottle Urthel Saissonière and wait until the beer begins to boil.
Add the mussels and cook until they open up. While doing this you add some fire herbs to the fire. Obviously we don't use the lid.
Serve these delicious Mussels accompanied by some bread, belgian fries, ... but most of all a delightful chilled beer.
