Healthy & Delicious: Lightening Up Your BBQ Menu for June
Share
BBQs are known for bold, hearty flavours—but that doesn’t mean they can’t be healthy too. Whether you're hosting a family cookout or a workplace lunch, you can lighten up your BBQ spread without sacrificing taste. At Mr. Barker, we believe in making halal BBQ catering in Singapore both wholesome and satisfying. Here’s how to build a better-for-you menu that still delivers serious flavour.
1. Start with Leaner Cuts and Seafood
Skip the fatty cuts and go for lean proteins like marinated chicken breast, fish fillets, and tender lamb loin. The Barker’s BBQ Signatures pack includes several healthier options, all pre-marinated in-house. Want something lighter still? The Mediterranean Seafood Grill offers grilled prawns and squid with citrus-forward flavours that feel fresh, not heavy.
2. Grill, Don’t Fry
Grilling over open flame lets excess fat drip away, making it one of the healthiest cooking methods. Even better—Mr. Barker offers halal-certified barbecue options that are fully prepped and ready for flame-on with no added oil.
3. Fill the Table with Colour
A healthy BBQ is a colourful BBQ. Fill out your spread with grilled veggies, tropical fruits, and vibrant sides. Try buttered corn, grilled peppers, or pineapple skewers. Our BBQ sides collection offers plenty of fresh, low-fat choices that pair beautifully with lean proteins.
4. Embrace Plant-Based Goodness
Looking to cut back on meat or cater to a diverse guest list? Mr. Barker’s vegan and vegetarian collection makes it easy to offer flavourful, wholesome alternatives like grilled tofu, marinated mushrooms, and plant-based patties. These additions make your event Muslim-friendly and inclusive for all.
5. Stay Cool with Light Beverages
Keep things refreshing and low-calorie with non-alcoholic drinks like iced lemongrass tea, sparkling lime sodas, and herbal infusions. These beverages balance out the smokiness of grilled meats while keeping guests cool in Singapore’s June heat.
