“We are all here for a spell; get all the good barbeque you can.” – Will Rogers
BBQs are the epitome of summer. Summer just doesn’t
go by without having at least one BBQ. The taste is fantastic plus you can cook
and keep yourself and the house cool.
I’m no BBQing pro, but I have found a few cool ones
while browsing online that look perfect for grilling on this summer.

Now we have some recipes that would be delicious to make for your BBQ parties this summer.
Enjoy!
I’ve never tried it, but I’ve heard that grilled
fruit desserts are a delightful treat. Here is a very yummy sounding recipe
that I’m going to try from Chatelaine magazine.
Grilled
Peach Melba
You will need:
2 firm ripe peaches halved and pitted
1 tbsp. honey
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
4 scoops of vanilla frozen yogurt or ice cream
4 biscuits of your choice crumbled
Raspberries
Preheat
your BBQ to medium.
Oil
the
grill. Brush cut sides of peaches with honey. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Barbecue peach halves, cut-side down, rotating often, until grill marks form, 2-3 min.
Transfer to 4 dessert dishes. Top with scoop of ice cream/frozen yogurt,
crumbled biscuits, and raspberries.
BBQ
Beef Kabobs
We tried
this kabob recipe a few summers ago; my dad basically made it up as he went
along. They were fun to make and quite tasty too.
You will
need:
Light soy
sauce
Garlic,
minced
Seasoning
salt
Beef
(sirloin steak)
Red and
green peppers
Mushrooms
Red Onion
Zucchini
Place the
cut up beef (in cubes) along with the chopped veggies in a bowl and marinate
with light soy, garlic, and seasoning salt. We didn't really measure
we just made sure everything was coated with soy sauce and then added as
much seasoning as we saw fit. Let this sit in the fridge for a couple of
hours.
Put the
marinated beef and veggies on the skewer (beef then veggie) leaving an inch on
both ends. Oil the grill and then when heated, place the skewers on for about
10 minutes. Serve with a green salad and enjoy.
Homemade BBQ Sauce
You will
need:
1/4 cup
ketchup
1/4 - 1/2
tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp.
onion powder
1/4 tsp.
garlic powder
1/8 tsp.
(or to taste) hickory or mesquite smoke
1/4 - 1/2
tsp. honey
Mix all
ingredients together.
Use on
your favourite grilling foods and barbecue away!
