Butchers Set to Sizzle with Help from New BBQ Guide

With forecasters predicting the hottest June on record, Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) is helping high street butchers make the most of barbecue season with the launch of a new guide for their customers.

The new publication, ‘BBQ Ready – A Guide to Summer Eating’, is packed with tantalising recipes using the best Scotch Beef, Scotch Lamb and Specially Selected Pork cuts. It has been issued to Scotch Butchers Club members across the UK and also highlights ideas for cooking outdoors this summer.

“Barbecues are great fun and a fantastic way to relax with friends outdoors and enjoy the 2018 exceptional Scottish sunshine outdoors,” said Graeme Sharp, Marketing Executive, Quality Meat Scotland.

“Whether you’re having a barbecue with friends and family or feeding the masses at a summer party, it’s the perfect occasion to enjoy the great taste of Scotch Beef, Scotch Lamb and Specially Selected Pork.”

He added: “We know the weather in Scotland can be unpredictable at best and while there is plenty of sunshine at the moment, we’ve made sure these recipes work just as well on the grill as they do on the barbecue.

“Our selection of suggestions for sauces and marinades will bring the flavours of summer to you even if the weather doesn’t cooperate. And, by choosing to cook with the best quality assured beef, lamb and pork, consumers can take some of the uncertainty out of the end result.”

The guide also features instructions about how to stay safe when cooking outdoors, with specific cooking times for different cuts of meat and cooking instructions designed to take the worry out of firing up the barbecue.

The new guide is available now at Scotch Butchers Club member shops. To find your closest member visit www.scotchkitchen.com
