5 BBQ food ideas & recipes 11 June 2023 Here in the UK, it’s almost a rite of passage that as soon as we catch a glimmer of the sun and it’s too warm for that extra layer of clothing we’ve been wearing since Christmas, BBQ season has arrived! And from that moment onwards, it’s game on as we begin resurrecting those trusty barbecue tools and that bag of charcoal or gas bottle that has been waiting patiently for us in the shed. If you’re on the hunt for inspiration to ensure your first BBQ of the year goes off with a bang, here’s a list of delicious and simple BBQ food recipes and ideas… 1. Barbecued pork chop with apple puree and sticky ribs This recipe by Marcus Wareing takes the classic pork and apple combination that we’re most familiar with enjoying over a Sunday roast or in sausages, and throws in a rack of pork ribs on top glazed with an irresistible homemade BBQ sauce for good measure! Napkins at the ready – this one could get messy! And if you’re keen to give it a go sooner rather than later, you can order some Herefordshire pork chops with us online here… 2. BBQ burgers A typical British BBQ is not truly a BBQ unless you’ve seen well-round shapes of mince meat sizzling away and being flipped over on the grill. Now the real question here is – what are your go-to BBQ burger meats, and burger flavours and combinations? Lamb and mint? Pork and spring onion? A traditional homemade beef burger? 3. …And their fillings Once you’ve got your burgers in your shopping basket, the decisions just keep on coming as your next job is to sandwich them alongside some tasty accompaniments! Whether you like to keep things simple with a squeeze of ketchup and a slice of cheese, or you take your burger filling to another level while also challenging yourself to hold it all together when you take that first bite, here are 10 burger topping ideas from Daisies & Pie! 4. Piri Piri chicken kebabs A firm favourite in our Bromyard and Hereford shops every summer, our team makes these kebabs by dicing chicken fillets and marinating them in a mild Piri Piri sauce with sweet and fresh red peppers… It’s our mission to source and supply you with only the finest quality produce and products here at Legges, and these kebabs are no exception: the chicken is free range and reared by our good friends at Packington Estate. 5. Barbecued hotdog with burnt onions and bacon We briefly mentioned sausages earlier on, however it would have been rude of us not to shine a spotlight on the staple hotdog which always graces our plates during BBQ season! Tom Kerridge’s barbecued hot dog recipe from his Outdoor Cooking cookbook takes this essential barbecue food to another level – wrapping them in bacon to create pigs in blankets and finishing them with some homemade German mustard mayo. …All the above please and thank you! Whether you’re heading to a BBQ party soon or you’re planning a get-together in the garden at home, you can pop in to see us and pick up all your fresh essentials, or order everything you need online with us – with free delivery on local orders* over £35 and nationwide orders over £75. *within a 10-mile radius of our Bromyard shop.
