BBQ Seafood

BBQ Seafood

Barbecue seafood offers a delightful twist on traditional BBQ fare, bringing a fresh, light and often sophisticated element to outdoor cooking. From succulent prawns to flavourful fish, BBQ seafood can be a show-stopping addition to your grilling repertoire. We’ll explore the best types of seafood for the grill, preparation tips and techniques to achieve perfectly cooked BBQ seafood.

Choosing the Right Seafood

  • Prawns: Prawns are a BBQ favourite due to their quick cooking time and ability to absorb marinades well. They can be grilled on skewers or in a grill basket.
  • Fish: Firm fish like salmon, tuna and swordfish are ideal for grilling as they hold up well over high heat. Delicate fish such as tilapia or sole can also be grilled, often wrapped in foil to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Scallops: Large sea scallops are excellent for the grill, developing a beautiful sear while remaining tender inside.
  • Lobster: Grilling lobster tails is a luxurious way to enjoy this seafood delicacy, adding a smoky flavour that complements its natural sweetness.
  • Oysters and Clams: These shellfish can be placed directly on the grill until they open, offering a unique and flavourful BBQ option.

Preparing Your Seafood

  1. Cleaning and Deboning: Ensure your seafood is properly cleaned. Remove any shells, scales or bones that are not meant to be eaten.
  2. Marinating: Marinating adds flavour and helps keep the seafood moist. A simple marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and herbs works well for most types of seafood. Marinate for 15-30 minutes to avoid overpowering the delicate flavours.
  3. Seasoning: In addition to marinades, you can season seafood with a variety of spices and herbs. Common choices include dill, parsley, paprika,and cumin. Salt and pepper are essential to enhance the natural taste.

Seafood Grilling Techniques

  • Direct Grilling: This method is suitable for firmer fish and larger shellfish. Place the seafood directly on the grill grates over medium-high heat. For fish, cook skin-side down first to ensure it gets crispy and releases easily from the grill.
  • Indirect Grilling: For more delicate seafood, use indirect heat. Position the seafood away from the direct flame to prevent overcooking and maintain tenderness.
  • Skewering: Skewering prawns, scallops or chunks of fish makes them easier to handle on the grill. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
  • Wrapping in Foil: For very delicate fish, wrapping in foil with herbs, spices and a splash of white wine or lemon juice can help retain moisture and prevent sticking.

Serving Your BBQ Seafood

Pair your BBQ seafood with fresh, vibrant sides to create a balanced meal. Options include grilled vegetables, mixed green salads, coleslaw or a light pasta salad. A variety of sauces such as tartar, aioli, or zesty salsa can complement the smoky flavours of the grilled seafood. Don’t forget a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to brighten up the dish.

Barbecue seafood offers a delightful twist on traditional BBQ fare, bringing a fresh, light and often sophisticated element to outdoor cooking. From succulent prawns to flavourful fish, BBQ seafood can be a show-stopping addition to your grilling repertoire. We’ll explore the best types of seafood for the grill, preparation tips and techniques to achieve perfectly cooked BBQ seafood.

Choosing the Right Seafood

  • Prawns: Prawns are a BBQ favourite due to their quick cooking time and ability to absorb marinades well. They can be grilled on skewers or in a grill basket.
  • Fish: Firm fish like salmon, tuna and swordfish are ideal for grilling as they hold up well over high heat. Delicate fish such as tilapia or sole can also be grilled, often wrapped in foil to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Scallops: Large sea scallops are excellent for the grill, developing a beautiful sear while remaining tender inside.
  • Lobster: Grilling lobster tails is a luxurious way to enjoy this seafood delicacy, adding a smoky flavour that complements its natural sweetness.
  • Oysters and Clams: These shellfish can be placed directly on the grill until they open, offering a unique and flavourful BBQ option.

Preparing Your Seafood

  1. Cleaning and Deboning: Ensure your seafood is properly cleaned. Remove any shells, scales or bones that are not meant to be eaten.
  2. Marinating: Marinating adds flavour and helps keep the seafood moist. A simple marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and herbs works well for most types of seafood. Marinate for 15-30 minutes to avoid overpowering the delicate flavours.
  3. Seasoning: In addition to marinades, you can season seafood with a variety of spices and herbs. Common choices include dill, parsley, paprika,and cumin. Salt and pepper are essential to enhance the natural taste.

Seafood Grilling Techniques

  • Direct Grilling: This method is suitable for firmer fish and larger shellfish. Place the seafood directly on the grill grates over medium-high heat. For fish, cook skin-side down first to ensure it gets crispy and releases easily from the grill.
  • Indirect Grilling: For more delicate seafood, use indirect heat. Position the seafood away from the direct flame to prevent overcooking and maintain tenderness.
  • Skewering: Skewering prawns, scallops or chunks of fish makes them easier to handle on the grill. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using to prevent burning.
  • Wrapping in Foil: For very delicate fish, wrapping in foil with herbs, spices and a splash of white wine or lemon juice can help retain moisture and prevent sticking.

Serving Your BBQ Seafood

Pair your BBQ seafood with fresh, vibrant sides to create a balanced meal. Options include grilled vegetables, mixed green salads, coleslaw or a light pasta salad. A variety of sauces such as tartar, aioli, or zesty salsa can complement the smoky flavours of the grilled seafood. Don’t forget a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to brighten up the dish.
