Ciao! The magical winter season is right around the corner, and for all of us in UAE, it is finally time to enjoy some fun outdoor activities. Barbeque is our favourite thing to do in the winter season. Is it your favourite too? Well then, take out those grills and sharpen your knives because it's time to barbeque.
'Grigliata' which translates to grill-out, is a century-old Italian tradition that has evolved with time. A fun chance to get together, relax and enjoy some great food with family + friends. To prep you for the same, let us hook you on to some top barbecue essentials so that you do not miss out on all the fun!
| Coal |
The most basic must-have for a successful Grigliata is excellent quality coal. Don't you agree? This one product has the power to induce the right amount of flavour to the meat and set the tone for the evening! So be extra picky and make sure to select the best quality barbeque coal.
Now, let's talk about some juicy essentials. The selection of meat is endless, and we feel - the more choice, the merrier. It is a known fact that when entertaining, variety is always the key, and it is always better to make sure all your guests have a host of options to choose from. Choose the seasonal favourites like ribeye, striploin, milk-fed veal french ribs or from seafood selections like salmon/shrimp/squid etc, or just go all out with a platter of Grigliata Mista di Carne along with some flavourful olives, veggies and easy + fabulous DIY spicy mayo dip, which can be prepared using mayonnaise & your fav spicy sauce!
Buns, Butter & Sauce
Time for some simple, yet equally important essentials. Well, who doesn't love a good old classic barbeque burger? We sure do! A burger made using freshly grilled meat + buttered-up buns sounds like a dream. Pro-tip - make sure to keep your pantry stocked with a selection of sauces i.e. from a classic BBQ sauce to red hot sauce & some yellow mustard.
Vegetables & Herbs
Make sure to add a refreshing touch to your meat spread with seasonal vegetables and herbs. Aromatic herbs like rosemary, parsley, and dried oregano with fresh veggies will no doubt bring out a unique taste to your grills.
Juices
How about some refreshing beverages to enjoy along with the fabulous meat spread? If you are a mocktail-kind of person, it would be a great idea to go ahead and prepare yourself and your guest a chilled pitcher of lemon mocktail/fresh fruit juice. It is sure to be a crowd pleaser + a kid-friendly option too. Additionally, you can enjoy your BBQ with fresh juices obtained from fresh Italian fruits. A great source of energy and the perfect drink to enjoy at any time.
As summer comes to an end, it is time to welcome an exciting all-new season, filled with lots of fun grilling.
