It’s that time of year again when we get ready to celebrate National BBQ Week, with the aim of encouraging more people to become BBQ masters as they spend time outdoors and enjoy a sizzling spread.

As BBQ experts we’ve got some top tips and tasty inspiration for you in this blog, to help you enjoy National BBQ Week with minimal effort and without having to spend a fortune.

Why we love National BBQ Week

It gets you outside – whether you’re at the park or just in your back garden. Any excuse to gather people and share a meal outdoors is always welcome.

It brings out the creative in us – experiment with ingredients and flavours! Don’t limit yourself to burgers.

Why should I join in with National BBQ Week?

It’s more than just an expression of the way of cooking. A BBQ is also a social event, a way of life. It brings people together for a celebration of food and friendship.

How can I join in?

Throw a BBQ get-together – whether it’s in your garden or at the beach, a BBQ is always fun. Get the CADAC | Dometic BBQ out and ask friends to bring drinks for an instant party.

Eat BBQ flavoured snacks – no space or time to BBQ? Load up on BBQ snacks instead, like grilled corn or nachos. Grill a quick sandwich or fry your morning eggs, it doesn’t need to be a plentiful spread to enjoy National BBQ Week 

BBQ on a budget – scour your cupboards for spices and sauces that can liven up any meal. Combine spices to create exciting dry rubs, perfect for pork, chops and steak, while unopened rice packets make a great side dish, simply add finely chopped chillies, grilled peppers and seasoning. Use nuts to add taste and texture to salads and load up on tasty veggies – baked potatoes on the BBQ are delicious.
