BBQ season is almost upon us! And when it comes to barbecuing, everyone has a technique they swear by.
BBQ season is almost upon us! And when it comes to barbecuing, everyone has a technique they swear by. In Canada, that may go no further than whether you use gas or charcoal, but considering that grilling is one of the oldest forms of cooking; it's no surprise that every nation has it's own style. Why not try a BBQ inspired by one of these incredible destinations this summer?
Hawaii
Hawaiian lauas have been replicated time and time again, usually with a tacky tropical shirt and plastic tiki torch. The real deal is a traditional feast that includes Hawaiian kalua pork (a cooking method that literally means to cook in an underground oven). Taro-based sides, such as Poi, and fresh pineapples are served alongside the classic Hawaiian staple of macaroni salad. Ukelele optional.

Caribbean
Caribbean food is packed full of delicious flavours and spices, such as turmeric, thyme and hot pepper. Serve your vegetables or meat Caribbean-style with plenty of jerk seasoning () and a generous serving of rice and peas. Pineapple relish and plantain chips are the perfect accompaniments to your summer BBQ.
Uncover the culinary delights of the Caribbean with a getaway to Grand Pineapple Resorts.

Korea
Korean BBQ is somewhat different in the sense that it usually takes place inside restaurants with tables that have grills built into their centres. Regardless, Korean BBQ flavours have been loved for centuries in Korea and are an interesting departure from the traditional North American BBQ.
Raw beef, pork, and chicken marinated in soy-based sauce are served to guests who grill the meat themselves. Side dishes include kimchi, cooked soybean sprouts, and spinach.

Australia
Throw another shrimp on the barbie! Or not, as the case may be. Australian BBQ's are chock full of fresh seafood such as prawns and salmon, served with potato salad and aioli. The true winner, however, is a "sausage sizzle" (grilled sausage and onion in a bread roll) served with plenty of fresh salad and beer. Grilling is a way of life in Australia, and the ultimate destination for learning how to do it right!
We hope you're feeling inspired to mix up your grilling style this summer!
