Easy BBQ Recipe

Another away-day BBQ today, that is two in two days. Today we were at Granny BS’s house and it was a great opportunity to test out one of the Weber range of BBQ Marinades.

We had the traditional Weber BBQ Marinade (£9.94 for 6 Amazon), a simple and easy BBQ Recipe that you simply pour over your meat, leave to marinade and then slap onto the grill.

We seem to always use the BBQ marinades over chicken but they also work really well over other cuts and varieties of meats such as Lamb chops, Pork Steaks, Beef steaks (Sirloin, fillet and rump etc).

I also thing the Weber BBQ Marinade works well when you brush it over seafood kebabs and, if a rogue veggie has snook in, you can smear it over their veggie kebabs as well.

Weber BBQ Sauce and Marinade

Marinades work best when you can leave them to flavour the meat overnight but we only had chance to give the Weber BBQ Sauce Marinade a couple of hours over our chicken breasts and being honest, you would not have noticed the difference had they been marinading for three days!

The flavour was spot on!

You kind of expect it to be perfect, it is Weber after all, but this really is spot on. In my mind it even beats the Paul Newman range of marinades. The trouble with some of the marinades is that they taste synthetic and a bit fake, but the Weber BBQ Sauce tastes authentic and original.

Easy BBQ Chicken Recipe

The Weber BBQ Marinade was not only a quick and easy BBQ Recipe it is one of those recipes you can prep in a couple of mins and leave to marinade whilst chatting with friends and still taste amazing.

Everyone loved the chicken and I suspect that had we not admitted that it was out of a jar I could have claimed it was home made! I totally would have as well…

Kudos Weber, you have done it again…

Guinness Chicken Marinade Recipe

For Season 10, BBQ 3 we gave the wonderful Guinness Red Meat Marinade a thorough testing.

Our lovely neighbours, Karen and Mark, came over after Mark had helped me (or shold I say, kindly led the way) with the Decking Project that I am currently embarking on (more to come on that later – hoping to finish this weekend).

Although the Guinness Marinade from Drinkstuff is supposed to be used on red meat we actually used it on chicken breasts.

The Kettle BBQ got so hot that I was forced to try and slow cook the chicken by pushing the coals to the edge of the BBQ and  then balancing the chicken away from the hot spots.

I absolutely love my Kettle Barbecue and cannot recommend them highly enough.

The chicken was cooked in 10-15 mins and was so nice and tender it tasted perfect. We served the Guinness Marinaded Chicken with rocket salad and Garlic bread.

All in all, a fantastic effort and I will be ordering more of the Guinness Marinade.

Guinness Marinade is availabe from Drinkstuff for just £4.99!
