Sweet is the new savory – the 5 tastiest bbq desserts

Whoever thinks of the barbecue probably thinks mainly of the burgers, skewers and other savory dishes that go on it. But what many forget is that the barbecue is also the perfect place to prepare delicious desserts.

“Who wants another burger, they have to go”, a well-known slogan that we all hear at the end of a bbq session. And that while you’ve actually had enough. Next time, therefore, take more time to prepare delicious bbq desserts! We all crave that variety. Because what could be better than to top off your evening of barbecuing with a sweet spectacle. Also handy: you don’t need any extra fuss for preparing, because the bbq is your best friend. We share the tastiest recipes of bbq desserts that your tongue should really taste this summer. To work!

A boat full

Where you probably usually eat a banana out of the fist or at most put it through a fruit salad, it is the basis for a dessert that you say to. It’s also simple: cut the banana in the peel lengthwise, spread a little butter in the cavity if necessary, put pieces of chocolate in it and wrap the whole thing in an aluminum jacket. In addition to the chocolate, you can add all your favorite toppings: nuts, mini marshmallows, pour a little rum over it or sprinkle some festive sprinkles on top. And ready for the BBQ! In short: completely customizable and as chic as you want! To go all out, serve this boat filled banana with a scoop of (vanilla) ice cream next to it.

We want s’mores!

Do you know that? Those super attractive food videos that are not only delicious for your mouth, but also for your eyes? S’mores is really an example of that. Especially if you saw in slo-mo how you spoon up the melted marshmallows from the sea of chocolate with a simple biscuit. A bbq dessert that is slowly blowing over from the American bbq and something you don’t want to miss. It is best to use a (small) bowl or pan that fits on the bbq. You will build layers in this: chocolate (this can also be with, for example, pieces of peanuts in it), marshmallows and biscuits inserted here and there. To add a little more balance and make an attempt at ‘healthy’, you can add summer strawberries. The whole thing can go on the bbq and dip, but all together.

Apple dessert

Is the above too much of a sugar bomb for you? With this dessert we take it a bit easier. The base is apple with cinnamon and sugar, but you decide how sweet you want it to be. And if you want an extra touch, add a dash of rum. Cut about one apple per person into pieces and place it in an aluminum foil. Sprinkle cinnamon and some sugar over it and fold it up. After 5-10 minutes it is nicely cooked and you can prick it away. It is best served with a fresh scoop of (vanilla) ice cream. This way you immediately cool down a bit after all that heat of barbecuing!

Sweet skewers

Do you have some skewers left between all those bbq ingredients? Use it to string all kinds of fruit on it! Pineapple, strawberries, apple, melon, you name it. Put it on the bbq and let it grill like you do with a skewer of satay. This fresh fruit dessert afterwards ensures that you don’t lose your temper after that heavy barbecue!

Peach spare ribs: Speach Ribs!

Last but not least, this sweet and vegetarian variant of spare ribs. This way you can still stay in the BBQ atmosphere, but you provide a small twist of taste at the end of the evening. It’s done in no time: cut the peach in half and place it on the bbq grill, so there will be nice grill marks on the peach. Also unpack by sprinkling a vanilla sauce over it, or as with the other bbq recipes, serve a scoop of ice cream on top. If you want to keep it a bit healthier, replace the vanilla sauce with cottage cheese or Greek yogurt and top it off with some honey and roasted nuts from the BBQ. From now on you can put the average spare ribs aside!

It doesn’t matter which bbq dessert you serve, as long as you serve one. Because your stomach is also waiting for something other than those endless burgers and herb cheese baguettes. Very sweet!
