5 Easy BBQ Steak Recipes Perfect for Summer Grilling

There's nothing quite like the smell of a BBQ on a warm summer day-especially when a juicy steak is involved. For your next BBQ, we've rounded up five simple but seriously tasty BBQ steak recipes that are perfect for summer and will leave a great impression on all those who attend.

From crowd-pleasers like sirloin to the show-stopping tomahawk, these recipes are all about big flavour, minimal effort, and making the most of the season.

Choosing the Right Steak for the BBQ

Not all steaks are created equal when it comes to the barbecue. The best ones tend to be well-marbled, thick-cut, and packed with flavour-ideal for getting that golden crust without drying out.

A few cuts we love for summer grilling include sirloin, ribeye, T-bone, hanger, tomahawk, and the underrated club steak. Each has its own character, from tender fillets to bold, beefy chops.

Check out our full range of beef steaks and chops or go straight for the club steak or the 45-day dry-aged T-bone, both perfect for the grill.

Don't Skip the Rubs and Marinades

A great steak is even better with the right seasoning. Whether you're a fan of smoky, spicy or something a little sweet, a good rub or marinade brings out the best in your BBQ beef steak.

If you're short on time, a dry rub is your best friend. Try our Asado Steak BBQ Rub for a smoky, Argentinian-inspired kick, or the Cocoa, Coffee & Smoked Chilli Rub for something richer and more intense.

Top tip: Let your steak sit for at least 30 minutes after seasoning so the flavours can work their magic.
