Barbecue recipes

To help your summer sparkle, we've chosen our favourite foods for cooking on the barbecue: from quick grilling to slow-roasted meltingly tender barbecue roasts, as well as ideas for salads, salsas and dips to serve alongside.

Homemade kebabs are perfect for the barbecue and so much tastier than the kebab van. We've got lamb kebabs, chicken kebabs and vegetarian versions - just stuff into pittas with plenty of salad.
