So, at least in most areas of the UK, the weather is set to be lovely and warm(er than usual) this weekend, which means that some of us will be cracking open the BBQs!

Post your favourite BBQ recipes here! Burgers, skewers, grilled veg, you name it

we BBQ everything (yes we're in australia)

We do amazing roasts on the BBQ, Pizzas and one of my favourites - barramundi on a bed of lemon slices with a little pepper, wrapped in foil and baked on the BBQ!

BBQ'd Pineapple is amazing, and BBQ'd banana (in its skin with a little dark chocolate inside) is also fantastic!!

I love BBQ.... but you are talking grilling. Skewers, burgers...

My favortire thing to grill are country ribs... or some people call them Pork Steaks... I make a spicy rub for them and grill them on high heat (Charcoal of course)... coating them with a sweet sauce for the last 2 minutes of cooking.

BBQ is done low and slow... like pulled pork. I cook an 8lb pork butt for 12 hours until it just melts... pull it into strands, put it on a bun with some jalapeno cole slaw... nothing better

LOL not too often does a guy who spends >10 hours manning a smoker get accused of being pedantic!

I was lookin for some ideas too...which is how I came acrossed this! One thing that I tried just recently were chiken kabob fajitas!! First I marinated the chicken in a caribbean jerk marinade, then I scewered that along with green peppers, red peppers, yellow peppers, orange peppers, white onion, and jalapenos. then I sprayed the whole scewers with olive oil spray and sprinkled with fajita seasoning. Grilled em on the BBQ until the chicken was cooked, grilled some "healthy" tortillas until browned and "emptied" a few skewers along with some fat free shredded cheese and fat free sour cream...and voila'!!

I wrote all my favourite BBQ ideas (& Side dishes) on a post a while back- I've cut and pasted them below:

BBQ'd chicken breasts- marinated in your favourite marinade (I used piri piri sauce) served in 1/2 a pitta pocket with lettuce, onions & natural yoghurt.

Turkey sausages- available at asda

Home made burgers with mince (ground turkey), or extra lean minced (ground) beef/pork.

Portabello mushrooms grilled & topped with salsa & cheese

Cubed tuna steaks, marinated in teryaki marinade and cooked on skewers

Shrimp/King prawns, red pepper & pinapple skewers in sweet chilli sauce

Swordfish/cod/salmon Fillets topped with green pesto & wrapped in a foil parcel then cooked on the BBQ/in the oven

BBQ'd spicy sweet potatoes, filled with low fat sour cream (Park bake in the oven, then wrap in foil and BBQ. Then split open the potato, sprinkle with cayenne pepper/ jerk seasoning & top with sour cream).

Whole grilled fish, brushed with curry paste.

BBQ'd bell peppers, stuffed with quinoa/cous cous, herbs & spices

Hummus, Tzatziki, spinach & rictotta dip or salsa served with veggies (raw mushrooms, peppers, carrots, cauli, broccoli, cucumbers) & toasted pitta slices.

Marinated artichokes, olives, peppers- in EVOO with fresh basil, garlic & mint.

Asparagus spears, wrapped with parma ham

Tomato & mozzarella salad with basil

Wholewheat pasta salad with chilli, zucchini (courgette) & parmesan cheese.

Cottage cheese, mixed with sweet chilli sauce- good as a dip.

Puy lentils (or any firm lentil) with feta cheese, red onions, corriander (cilantro) in a dressing made out of EVOO, lemon juice & white wine vinegar.

Smoked salmon & Zucchini carpaccio- raw strips of courgette (zucchini) with fresh chilli peppers, lemon juice, basil, coriander (cilantro) & smoked salmon slices.
Drizzle with natural yoghurt.

BBQ pinapple slices with fresh chilli flakes

BBQ bananas (wrapped in foil first) serves with greek yoghurt & honey (Can also do this with stoned peaches/nectarines).

Phew- think thats a few ideas
