BBQ Party Awesome Tips

BBQ Party Sauce Tray Tips

Fretting over what to use to hold your BBQ sauce? Love your environment a little by minimizing the usage of disposable container or plastic holder, instead bring your own muffin tray to hold BBQ sauce and pickles. Not only is muffin tray ideal to hold western condiment such as mustard, mayonnaise, pickles, guacamole, chili sauce, it is also a great way to hold satay sauce, in fact you may also place it over the barbecue pit to heat up the satay sauce so they taste even better.

If you are holding a BBQ Burger Feast, you may bring along muffin to hold your condiment you like to add in for your burger. Muffin tray can also be used to hold your taco sauce, place cheese sauce in the muffin tray and place it over the barbecue tray for 5 to 10 minutes to heat up cheese sauce and your ready to go!

Lets all play a small role in saving mother nature by reducing the use of plastic container.

Grilling vs BBQ, What's the Difference?

Some of you must be wondering, "What exactly is the difference between barbecue and grilling?". In this modern society, everyone seems to be using these two words interchangeably. Technically, barbecue and grilling is a method of cooking and the sole difference is the length of time and amount of heat used. 

Barbecue
Slow and Steady. When barbecuing, low temperature and "slow" cooking of meat allows food to absorb the smoke and rub flavors, making it tender and moist. This "Long, Low and Slow" cooking method is used on ribs, pork shoulder, and brisket to achieve the tantalizing moist meat texture.


Grilling
Hot and Fast. Grilling is the most commonly preferred cooking method in this fast paced society. However not all food it suitable for this cooking method. Burgers, chicken, steak, and seafood are typically grilled, but you may also grill fresh vegetables and even fruit.

BBQ Party Checklist

BBQ Party Checklist

          Are you in charge of organising BBQ Party, but not sure how to organise?

Or have organised BBQ Event before, and it ended up in ‘disaster’?

While we recognise every BBQ Party can have vastly similar items, each of the event itself is unique. The following list (template) are for your consideration, and will greatly reduce your time spend on planning and creating a Perfect BBQ Party Checklist. All while adding variety to your parties

Get a BBQ grill or book a BBQ Pit

Obviously, you cannot conduct a BBQ Party without a main character – BBQ Grill.

The first place to start would be to buy a grill or book a BBQ Pit with National Parks Board. Click the link to internet booking from National Park Board here.

Your BBQ checklist

Accessories 

ð        BBQ utensils (Tongs, bamboo skewers, fans, BBQ brush and wire gauze)

ð        Paper/plastic plates and plastic cups - easily disposable

ð        Plastic cutlery

ð        Tablecloth(s)

ð        Napkins

ð        Serving utensils

ð        Salad bowls

ð        Pitchers

ð        Ice bucket or Foam box

ð        Extra charcoal – More will never hurt.

ð        Trash bag

ð        Aluminium foil and Tray

Decide on quantity of food

Undeniably, the most important part of the BBQ Party is the food. Estimate how many people are coming, and ensure that you have enough food and beverage for everyone; you do not want people to fight for the last hotdog to happen. If you are budget conscious, then you can make it a potluck BBQ party, where the guests can bring in the raw and cooked food.

If you do decide to organize a potluck, make it a point to know what everyone will bring, or be proactive and ask the guests whether they are bringing their side dishes, drinks, dessert, salad, local and exotic foods. Also, it is easier to designate one person to handle meat and other to handle condiments.

Starters

ð        Coleslaw

ð        Crackers and Chips (titbits)

ð        Salads of variety types.

ð        Raw vegetables and dip 

Condiments

ð        Ketchup

ð        Chili sauce

ð        Mustard

ð        Barbecue sauce

ð        Cheese slices

ð        Satay Sauce

ð        Onion (Finely chopped or sliced)

ð        Margarine or vegetable oil

ð        Honey 

Main Meals

ð        Finger foods (Nuggets, Satay, Otah, Seasoned Chicken Wings, BBQ kebab and so on…)

ð        Seafood finger foods (Prawns, mussels, oysters and on…)

ð        Sweet Corns and Potatoes

ð        Fried rice

ð        Bee Hoon 

Desserts

ð        Marshmallow

ð        Cakes and sweet breads (Nyona kueh, pie cake, and so on…)

ð        Frozen yogurt and Ice cream

ð        Fruit salad

ð        Fruit (mango, watermelon, apple and so on...) 

Drinks

ð        Pitcher of water

ð        Flavoured soft drinks

ð        Beer

ð        Wine

ð        Tea 

Important reminders.

1. No matter what, it is crucial to have enough drinks on hand - including alcoholic ones, if you will. — In order to keep everyone satisfied and happy.

2. Make sure you are aware of anyone who is Vegetarian (include more vegetables choice), Muslim (Halal foods only), Hindu (No Beef) and anyone with other dietary restrictions (Religions and Allergies related, substitute food as appropriate). 

3. Always have sufficient ice available. When needed, it is easier to buy bags of ice at your local convenience store.

Easiest Way to Start BBQ Fire

 How to start a BBQ fire

Starting a fire on the charcoal is invariably the first step to begin the BBQ party. Often, it can be a tedious process. Our suggested methods will ease the tricky, but imperative step. Below we have listed two ways to start charcoal fire, one with the use of fire starter, the other without the use of fire-starter. This awesome  method is from BBQ Wholesale Centre, results guaranteed if you adhere to the steps closely. Tested and proven!

1) Start BBQ Fire with Fire Starter

Step 1: Put the fire starter at the center and surround it with charcoal

Step 2: Stack up charcoal into a pile until the fire starter is almost covered.

Step 3: Light up the fire starter with a piece of burning rolled paper or match stick.

 Step 4: Leave it burning for about 10 minutes  or until the coal is red hot. Spread coals evenly and start grilling.

1) Start BBQ Fire without Fire Starter

[Extracted and edited from Wikihow.com]

Step 1: Roughly rolls the crumpled full page of the newspaper or other large piece of paper into a rough cylinder.

 Step 2: Shape a rough cylinder into a ring shape and place it on your BBQ Grill or Pit.

Step 3: Wet the paper ring with just about one tablespoon of cooking oil

Step 4: Place about 10 to 15 pieces of charcoal around and middle of your DIY Paper Ring.

Step 5: Light the paper in few points around and from below of your DIY Paper Ring.

Step 6: Set the DIY Paper Ring and let it fire up for 10 minutes or so. By about ten minutes, your charcoal should be smouldering with weak flames.

Step 7: Pour any extra charcoal you may need for your barbecue and allow it burn for an additional 10 minutes.

Step 8: Finally, arrange and spread out the red hot charcoals on your barbecue grill or pit after they have all turned into red hot charcoals. They are then ready to heat your BBQ foods.

Tips and Caution

Ö        Thoroughly cleans out the grill to remove ash and grease before every grilling session for better BBQ experience.
Ö        Cleaning the grill before each use can reduce the bad smoke, preventing an undesirable taste on foods.
Ö        Adding some pieces of new charcoal to still weak burning charcoal will save you the trouble of starting a fire on new charcoal again. Especially, if you wanted your grilling session to last longer.

Ö      If you choose to opt for lighter fluid to start a fire on the charcoal, be aware that its chemical component can easily impart an undesirable strong flavour to your grilled food. This method is strongly not recommended. Also, it is dangerous to pour lighter fluid on the smouldering charcoal. The lighter fluid’s stream could be easily ignited, travel up the stream of fluid to the container, and explode.
Ö    Make sure you have read your grills manual instructions and that you understand them. We hold no responsibilities for accidents arising from using the recommended methods.
