Now we know some you y’all be feeling the dishes we been serving up lately have been a little too salty, leaving a bitter aftertaste and all that. Well as the saying goes, if you can’t stand the heat, get outta the kitchen… get outside and BBQ instead! 😝

Now, if you’re lookin’ for some top-notch BBQ tips, you’ve come to the right place folks. This cookbook is bare full of the tastiest BBQ recipes straight from you culinary legends, the Offspring Community. We’ve got recipes for juicy burgers, sizzling steaks, and finger-lickin’ ribs that’ll have you droolin’ like a dog in a butcher’s shop.

We’ve got all your insider knowledge on how to get that perfect char on your meat, how to make the most mouthwaterin’ marinades, and even how to smoke your own brisket like a true pitmaster. And it ain’t all about the meat lovers either, we’ve got some love for you veggies too.

Before we get cookin’, gotta shout out two Community members for their BBQ skills. Seems by all the mentions in our #sundaydiscussion post, gregsweethughes you’ve been nominated the King of the Grill! Those recipes look hella good, so we’ll be expecting an invite to your next cook up, yeh? And indiandreadhead, that’s like a proper Masterchef recipe you gave us – all the details! People, be sure to check it and give it a try.

So, grab your tongs, and fire up the barbie (or braaii for the South African massive), ‘cause we about to have a proper BBQ feast, innit!

For me it’s got to be steak, boerewors and some beautiful chops. Maybe a ribeye burger and all sourced from @unclebeefltd so proper portions and sizes! All about the marination too nothing better than preparing your meat before you cook it. If you’ve never been to a South African braai you’re missing out! 🇿🇦 – mckeownnicole

Slow cooked bbq beef brisket. Secret ingredient is some bourbon whiskey. Melt in the mouth 😋 – crepbizzle

–––

Slow cooking beef brisket. All day job, and make sure it falls apart when it cooks. Server with big chunks of halloumi too 😍 – morethangreene

–––

IMO, can’t beat a good old fat fresh pressed burger in a fresh, soft white bun, some avocado and some BBQ fried onions on top and some phat salad to wash it all down. – dmoss10

I always do steaks but the cut makes the difference. Rib eye and T Bone are the best cuts for me, but they also must be seasoned correctly. – dj_raskal

Us Filipinos do love BBQ as it is a part of our street foods back home 🇵🇭. I wanna share with you our special pork belly BBQ marinated overnight with spices and a special ingredient called ‘Magic Sarap’ that enhances the taste of every meal! Ofc, nothing beats jasmine rice on the side 🍚 and an ice-cold beer 🍻 as for us Filipinos, rice is life! 😊 – jah.bong

Where to start 😂😂 I've always loved BBQ & learned from my dad. Then 18yrs ago man Vs food inspired me to start smoke cooking. I’m a big fan of low & slow pulled pork shoulder for a crowd. – gregsweethughes

–––

Pork belly. A bit of salt, lime juice and paprika. Can’t miss! – barnadimitri

I cannot imagine a BBQ without the ultimate summertime classic; Smoked Polish Kiełbasa! It is the secret behind the most successful hot-dog shops in USA 👀 To achieve the most authentic experience, you need to get the right Sausage. ‘Śląska’ or ‘Podwawelska’ are the ones you want to look for. All you need to do is score the skin, throw it on the grill, and season with nothing other than your favourite Polish Lager. Serve with toasted sourdough bread, ‘Sarepska’ mustard, and Voila! 🤌🏼🤤🍺🌭 – dont_step_on_my_crep

Anyone that knows me knows I love a slow cook BBQ. A 10–12 hour slow smoked pork shoulder is my go to, difficult to put it in a recipe as I generally go for random spices and nice things as a rub, and always smoked over sustainable Dorset wood. Think the only thing I do that isn’t the norm is I generally spray with Cherry Coke during the cook 🤘. Funnily enough it was an #offspringhqcommunity member that gave me guidance when I started getting into it all, @tommywilks420 / @grillz_n_thrillz ❤️ – mulv88

My go to is a Butterflied Leg of Lamb with chopped herbs, lemon and Chilli. Really simple but delicious! I’m just about to buy a smoker, so watch this space! – simon_says_sneakers_

–––

Lamb chops all day long. Over here we have an old Skool seasoning which has been passed down to me and one other family member no one else knows how to make it now. @offspringhq when you’re ready I got a couple jars for ya. – westlondonsfinest1984

👟👨🏾‍🍳 Tis the szn 💥 For lamb cutlets 🥩 or ribs that slap 👋🏾 Make a paste by rubbing out of salt, pepper, garlic, olive oil, 🇯🇲 ALL purpose seasoning 🤌🏾 and get busy✨ – danfrmarz

Wash ya chicken & marinade it, for chicken burgers soak fillet in butter milk overnight 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Got to have some corn 🌽 too & a few salads. – mcgintyscreps

My harissa and yoghurt marinated chicken is up there. Mix up a good amount of harrisa paste with yoghurt, chopped up garlic, lemon, coriander, and cumin. Don’t be shy, lash it in and mix it up. Then marinate the chicken overnight (the longer the better), get it on the grill and Bob Singh’s your Uncle! Serve up with some spicy couscous. 🔥🤤 – kalsi

I’m not a BBQ guy, I’m a smoker. Ceramic Egg, low and slow cooking process. Sticky chicken, potatoes and greens. Brown sugar, paprika & garlic rub. Leave it cooking low for 6/8 hours with oak wood burning. Melts in your mouth... oh man, hungry now! – 92inc_

–––

Chicken with lashings of lime, chilli and spring onions!! Washed down with a ice cold lager!! 🤤 – steviekettle

Chicken thigh kebab, slowly cooked on the rotisserie served on homemade flat bread 🔥🔥 – gregsweethughes

We love to grill Milkfish filled inside with tomatoes, onions and garlic and covered with foil to steam and grill at the same time! – jah.bong

I’m a seafood kind of guy, so seasoned fish with a bit of rosemary and thyme never goes a miss. Plus some salad and some fruit thrown in, with a glass of white wine does it for me! – solesmoothes

Salmon fillets on top of a slice of lemon with a chunk of butter wrapped in tin foil. – l_iam.lam

Hallumi grilled in cider! @mcgintyscreps

For the non-meat eaters, skewers with halloumi-pepper-onion-paneer-mushroom. Trust me, the halloumi and paneer combo is unmatched. – randeepkang

–––

As my wife is veggie, we’d do some seasoned halloumi and peppers, with some corn on the cob covered in Cajun seasoning drowned in butter 😋 – djlbiz

–––

Jerk everything! Including the halloumi 🤣 – sexybowsarebest

A recipe for something that I always do is a cous cous salad. Cous cous, fresh corriander, tomato, cucumber, spring onion, lemon, salt and olive oil. With a steak the freshness of that salad always wins. You can even put that salad in a burger. Trust me. – dj_raskal

–––

Grilled vegetables for me! Asparagus, Onions🧅, Tomatoes🍅, Bell pepper🫑, topped with some olive oil and a dash of salts... man’s trying to eat healthy 😌 – ben_10_ldn

–––

Sides would be corn with butter & homemade rub & spicy peanut butter Asian slaw. Hot potato salad with bacon & onion. – gregsweethughes

–––

It all comes down to the Coleslaw, Potato Salad and Mac and Cheese. The sides are just as important as the mains. My BBQ seasoned Mac and Cheese goes down a treat! Can’t lie…😂 – meticulous_esq

–––

Paneer tikka and tandoori broccoli are my 2 signature dishes on a BBQ. My go to for sure is BBQ pineapple with some cinnamon and rum. – thefamilykick

Slightly grilled sweetcorn is a delicious side for sharing. Don’t forgot to add salt for sweetcorn 😉. If u like a tangy taste you must add lemon zest, fresh thyme leaves and garlic 😋 – mrssnkrs

Dessert is either a chocolate lava cake but my favourite is pineapple with butter, sugar & cinnamon served with vanilla ice cream 😍 – gregsweethughes

–––

My go to for sure is BBQ pineapple with some cinnamon and rum. – thefamilykick

Whatever else is on the barbie, there has to be some pineapple getting grilled too. Can't beat some grilled pineapple with a hit of chilli 😋 – dippersingh45

Some grilled pineapple with chilli flakes and maple syrup for dessert. 👌 – cj_in_sneakers

Grilled pineapple🍍with cinnamon sprinkled on it. – shahidm786

Preparation is key so I marinate all my meat a day before and I make sure we have plenty of options and food on the Barbie! I always have chicken thighs/legs, lamb chops, lamb ribs, sea bass, home-made burgers, foiled potatoes and sweet corn cooking in the coal, alongside homemade potato salad 😜🤩😎 – mysnkrjournal

Anything marinated in garlic, chilli, lemon & olive oil 🤤 – dct303

Marinate those wings for as long as possible 😍🔥 – creperellaa
