Summer is here, and it’s the perfect time to fire up the BBQ and gather with friends and family. Whether you’re hosting a backyard bash, BBQ at the Groynes or a casual weekend meal, we’ve got you covered with fresh ideas to make your BBQ unforgettable.
Classic Grilled Favourites
No BBQ is complete without the classics! Think juicy burgers, sizzling sausages, and perfectly grilled chicken skewers. Pair these with fresh burger buns, a variety of cheeses, and your favourite sauces for a crowd-pleasing spread.
Veggie Options to Love
Grilled vegetables bring vibrant colour and delicious flavour to your BBQ. Try these combos:
Sweetcorn: Grill with garlic butter and a sprinkle of paprika.
Zucchini & Eggplant Slices: Toss with olive oil and herbs, then grill until tender.
Veggie Skewers: Load up with mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and red onions.
Seafood Specials
Impress your guests with seafood on the grill:
BBQ Salmon: Marinated in honey, soy, and garlic for a sweet and savoury glaze.
Prawns: Thread onto skewers with a drizzle of lemon and garlic butter.
Whole Fish: Stuff with herbs and citrus, wrap in foil, and grill to perfection.
Fresh and Flavourful Sides
Complement your grilled mains with these fresh side dishes:
Potato Salad: Creamy, tangy, and always a hit.
Coleslaw: Light and crunchy with a touch of sweetness.
Seasonal Salad: Use your favourite lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, and a zesty vinaigrette for a real quick but refreshing salad.
Sweet Endings on the Grill
Don’t forget dessert! Grilled fruits are a delicious way to wrap up your BBQ:
Pineapple Rings: Drizzle with honey and cinnamon, then grill until caramelized.
Peach Halves: Top with a dollop of whipped cream or yoghurt.
Bananas: Grill in their skins and serve with a scoop of ice cream.
Pro Tips for BBQ Success:
Always preheat your grill to ensure even cooking.
Marinate your proteins overnight for maximum flavour.
Keep a spray bottle of water handy to manage any unwanted flare-ups.
