The Science Behind Healthier Grilling

Set a two-zone fire, sear over direct heat, then finish over indirect to avoid flare-ups. Trim visible fat, keep a spray bottle handy, and flip more often to prevent scorching. Use a thermometer for perfect doneness. If it chars, trim it off and keep the party moving toward healthier bites.

Sauces, Salsas, and Rubs with Balance

Try pico de gallo, mango–jalapeño salsa, salsa verde, or tomato–herb relish to add acid, crunch, and color. Fresh herbs keep things vibrant while helping portion sauces more mindfully. Share your fruit-forward salsa combo, and we’ll test it on grilled salmon this weekend.

Menus for Every Guest

Gluten-Free, No Fuss

Offer corn tortillas, lettuce cups, and simple rice salads. Clean grill grates and use separate tongs to avoid cross-contact. Label condiments, especially sauces thickened with flour. Tell your gluten-free friends we’ve got their backs, and invite them to drop favorite sides in the comments.

Low-Carb and Keto-Friendly Plates

Serve bunless turkey burgers with avocado salsa, grilled salmon with lemon-herb butter, and halloumi–vegetable skewers. Pile on non-starchy vegetables and choose olive oil or yogurt-based sauces. Share your macro-friendly plate photo, and we’ll feature it in our Healthy BBQ Menu Options newsletter.

Plant-Based Happiness

From black bean burgers to lentil–walnut loaf slices and harissa tofu, plant plates can be hearty and exciting. Add grilled peaches or corn for sweetness, and finish with chimichurri. Comment with your must-try plant protein, and encourage a friend to bring a veggie entrée next time.

Hosting Flow and Hydration

Make Plants the First Stop

Place vibrant salads, grilled veggies, and fruit at the start of the buffet so half the plate fills with color before proteins. Offer small plates to encourage mindful portions. Share your table layout sketch, and we’ll send feedback tailored to Healthy BBQ Menu Options.
