Barbecue Ideas from Sydney caterers

Thursday, January 1st, 2009


if you want to sit back relax and have your bbq done for you see www.mycaterer.com.au

Barbecue Theme

Most of us host at least one barbecue a year. It’s easy to get tired of the same
old hot dogs and hamburgers routine,
so why not try mixing it up this year? Sure hot dogs and hamburgers are crowd pleasers,
but there are so many other menus that can really put some spice into your barbecue.
Here are some sample menus and themes to change your barbecue.

Hold a cookout, New England style. Cook corn on the cob, lobster, and potatoes
together in a huge pot over an open flame in your back yard.
You can throw in any other items
you desire, like shrimp, onions and crayfish, too.
Sit on picnic tables and use lobster bibs. Unlike most cookouts,
held when the weather is very warm, this barbeque is best
when the evenings are a little chilly.

Start with a sophisticated appetizer,
like oysters on the half shell. Visit a real butcher and buy some hand cut steaks.
Serve by candlelight, with baked potatoes and a green salad. Pick a good red wine
and serve something decadent and chocolate for dessert.

Grill chicken marinated in Caribbean spices,
and serve with grilled vegetables, fruit salad and tropical drinks.
Play reggae music and set up a small dance floor where guests
can dance the night away under the stars – don’t forget to take a break from dancing
long enough for a limbo contest.

Host your own hoedown, country style. Serve ribs, baked beans and beer.
Offer line dancing and horseshoe throwing.

Think 1950’s and serve chocolate malts and patty melts for a nice twist
on the traditional burger cookout. Dance the night away
to Fats Domino and have a prize for the person who’s still got it
with the hula hoop and the person who can still do the “twist”.

call us on 02-9896-6006 to see how we can help younice bbq have a great bbq
