Barbecue Party Tips: Grilling Up a Good Time!

The scent of the grill in an afternoon colored in the orange palette, laughter in the air, flipping burgers and fizzing beers, happy kids playing on the lawn – Yes, it is officially summer time!

From buying a barbecue to the grilling tips & tricks, perfect handpicked summer barbecue menu and budget friendly décor hacks; we covered it all for you. So, let us get things grilling!

Quest for the perfect barbecue

There are two classic barbecue grills- charcoal & gas. Charcoal Barbecue is budget friendly but, it gets very hot and needs to be manually lit. It needs to be preheated for a minimum of 20 minutes, making it a time-consuming bet. But, the best part is you get to play with the real fire!

Gas Barbecue is typically a pricier option than charcoal, but it is easy to clean and convenient to use. Whatever the enthusiastic grillers say about their personal favorite, it’s really your call! There are pros and cons to both the grilling methods.

Let the grill heat up

Pre-heat the grill before you start cooking.  To light your charcoal grill, you’ll need a chimney starter.  A gas grill needs 10 minutes to heat up and a charcoal grill takes at least 20 minutes. Once the grill is heated and cleaned, it is time to oil the grate. Now that your grill is hot, let us get started with preparing the barbecue marvels!

Just the right barbecue menu
