Italian Menu Ideas For The Barbeque Grill

These Italian menu ideas for the barbeque grill are going to be quite time consuming but really worth the effort. By nature, Italian cooking is all about fresh ingredients cooked in a very simple way and this does present its challenges.

Most foods are eaten immediately after grilling so it’s important when serving and eating to have one eye on your plate but the other on the grill – it’s a dynamic process. That said, don’t be put off, it just means that you need to prepare the raw ingredients in advance and be prepared to make the final assembly of the dish at the last minute.

A good example of this the bruschetta that is wonderfully garlicky but really does have to be prepared immediately before eating but to be fair this is the same whether you do it on the barbeque grill or not. But then contrary to this, try the beef fiorentina that can be left to grill with a very quick final assembly of pre-prepared balsamic vinaigrette and a wedge of lemon.

Bruschetta - Bread lightly toasted on the grill and topped with the most wonderful tomato flavor.

Fire Roasted Pepper Salad - Use those early flames to deliver this supremely sweet salad

Beef Fiorentina - The distinctly Italian way to serve ribeye.

Italian Beef Salad - A healthy option for red meat eaters!

Lamb In Balsamic Marinade - Cutlets marinated and grilled together.
