Whilst us Aussies are coming into winter, our friends in the US are just about to celebrate one of the biggest BBQ weekends of the year – Memorial Day weekend! Memorial Day itself is celebrated on the last Monday of May in commemoration for soldiers who lost their lives in military service – and in addition to giving Americans a day off from work, it also marks the start of their fabulous summer season!

Below are some of our summer BBQ Recipe favourites…

This is one of the easiest and quickest seafood dishes to prepare – and the presentation will never fail to impress your guests. Watch the video to see how nutritionist and celebrity chef, Janella Purcell works her magic.

Homemade Crumpets BBQ Recipe
Okay fine, we do realise crumpets are an all-year-round dish. But we love having them for breakfast – or as an afternoon snack – as they always somehow remind us of home. Ben O’Donoghue’s recipe is extremely easy and yes, he cooks it over the BBQ!

Treat BBQ Like a Wok BBQ Recipe
We’re mixing things up a bit and adding some Asian influences to our BBQ. Check out this tried and tested vege-friendly stir fry. Also suitable for those with a gluten intolerance.
