GIVE THE BBQ TIME TO HEAT UP
It takes about 30 minutes for a barbecue to fully heat up after being lit. It is important you wait for the temperature to be right to ensure even cooking. -
PREPARATION IS KEY
Get all your sides and salads sorted and in their serving dishes then cover and chill, that way you can really focus on what’s important: nailing the BBQ. -
SEASON EVERYTHING
Whether it’s veg or meat, it needs to be seasoned, either with a marinade or spice rub (Hot tip: Hunt & Gather Portuguese Rub is delicious with chicken). -
REST YOUR MEAT
Resting meat is a very important stage of cooking meat and without it meat will be tough. Once cooked, all meat will benefit from about 5-10 minutes ‘resting’ to allow reabsorption of juices. -
DON’T FORGET ABOUT YOUR GUESTS
The point of a barbecue is as much about the social occasion it is about the food. Make sure you’re having fun & mingling too!
