Tips for Brilliant BBQing

Great BBQ is all about flavour, control and timing. Get the basics right, and you'll achieve a better result every time. We've listed some simple steps to get the best from the grill.

Prep for Flavour

  • Marinate properly – overnight where possible, or at least 2 hours
  • Shorter marinades – steaks, fish and seafood need only around 1 hour
  • Season last – add salt just before grilling and ensure you oil your foods before putting on the grill
  •  
  • BBQ on the bone – improves flavour and presentation
  • Drain excess marinade before placing on the grill
  • Preheat grill - make sure that the grill is fully hot and up to temperature

Cooking Techniques

  • Adjust grill height for delicate or slower-cooking foods
  • Seal meat properly to lock in flavour and juices
  • Let the meat rest for a few minutes before serving
  • Season with cracked pepper, sea salt and quality oils
  • Turn twice, flip once for the best colour and grill marks

Keep It Clean

After each grilling cycle, brush the grill clean to remove carbonised debris. A clean surface improves flavour, prevents sticking and maintains consistent results.

Master these basics and you’ll deliver BBQ food that looks better, tastes better and keeps customers coming back.
