Every Aussie loves a good Barbie on a weekend. It is tradition. It is expected. But it isn’t what it used to be.
Gone are the days of a few plain sausages and a couple of pieces of steak. The Aussie BBQ has become an art form. So what is the best meat to barbecue?
Firstly, there are so many different types of barbecues out there. Charcoal grills, gas, outdoor electric, portable (can’t beat a Weber Q) ones with rotisserie grills and the open fire. This article runs through some of the best barbecue options in Australia. (https://www.t3.com/au/features/best-barbecue)
So now what to cook?
You can consider the meat-eaters, vegetarians, and vegans. There is a range of non-meat products and Vegan medleys at the shops but we are here to talk about meat! We are a butcher after all.
Our top 5 picks for the best meat to barbecue are:
- Lime and Chilli Lamb Rumps
- Brisket Burgers (in fact all of our burger patties)
- Oriental Chicken Steaks
- Moroccan Chicken Breasts
- Steak (Porterhouse, Scotch Fillet)
Of course your main meat should be accompanied by a couple of sausage options and we think a chicken sausage is great or pork and fennel. Our meat skewers are also very popular and a fun choice for the kids.

For cooking, you can’t go past a Weber and in winter – a Weber Baby Q is great as you can tuck it into a dry outdoor area.
