Best BBQ Recipes This Summer
At Avenues, we love nothing more than a delicious barbecue on a long summer’s afternoon. Whether you're a seasoned grill master or a newbie wielding tongs for the first time, our guide will equip you with a winning repertoire of recipes to turn your barbecue into a really special event.
Grilled Jerk Chicken with Mango Salsa: Spice up your barbecue with this Caribbean-inspired dish. Marinate your chicken in a fiery jerk blend, then grill to juicy perfection. The sweet and tangy mango salsa adds a refreshing counterpoint to the heat.
Smoked Salmon Burgers with Dill Havarti: Break away from the ordinary burger with this elegant option. Smoked salmon patties are infused with a subtle smoky flavour, perfectly complemented by creamy cheese and a squeeze of lemon.
Grilled Vegetable Skewers with Halloumi: Cater to vegetarian friends with these colourful skewers. Thread your favourite grilled vegetables – think zucchini, peppers, and onions – with halloumi cheese. Brush with a simple marinade for added flavour.
Grilled Corn on the Cob with Chipotle Mayo: A barbecue staple gets a flavour upgrade. Grill your corn until tender, then slather it in a creamy chipotle mayo for a smoky and addictive twist.
Grilled Watermelon and Feta Salad: This refreshing salad is a perfect summer side. Combine grilled watermelon chunks with crumbly feta cheese, fresh mint, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a sweet and savoury explosion.
Grilled Potato Salad with Herbs: Skip the mayo-laden version and opt for this lighter and tastier alternative. Grill cubed potatoes until tender, then toss them with fresh herbs, a light vinaigrette, and a sprinkle of crispy bacon bits.
Grilled Peaches with Vanilla Ice Cream: Take advantage of summer stone fruits with this simple yet satisfying dessert. Grill peach halves until slightly caramelised, then top them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of honey for a warm and gooey treat.
