2:08PM BST 25 May 2011
The Prime Minister and US President rolled up their shirtsleeves, but the ties
stayed on, as they flipped burgers and turned sausages for their guests.
The event took place on the second day of a three-day state visit to the UK,
which has already taken in Downing Street and Buckingham Palace.
Mr and Mrs Obama will head to the US embassy later today before flying back to
America on Thursday morning.
