Winter grilling for creative moments of enjoyment in the cold season
Sure, grilling is the classic in summer when everyone puts steak or sausage on the grill. But the winter months provide the perfect backdrop to elevate your grilling skills and creativity to a new level! There are countless recipes that are ideal for the cold season and showcase the versatile uses of your grill or Dutch ovens. Here are some extraordinary ideas that are guaranteed to be anything but ordinary and will make your mouth water.
Grilled duck breast with mulled wine reduction 🍷🤤
Grilling in elegant form! The duck breast develops an irresistibly crispy skin on the grill. Accompanied by a mulled wine reduction made with cinnamon, cloves, and orange zest – it can only taste like Christmas.
💡 Tip: The duck breast should first be grilled skin-side down to render enough fat, and then finished cooking over indirect heat.
Winter game burger 🍔👨🍳
Game meat, a must for winter grilling enjoyment. Imagine a juicy burger made from venison or deer meat, topped with caramelized onions, a touch of cranberry jam, and a piece of creamy Camembert on a rustic bun. The ideal burger for the cold!
💡 Tip: Add a bit of pork bacon to the game meat to keep it juicy.
Grilled baked apple 🍏🔥
Baked apples are classically known from the oven, but on the grill, they acquire a particularly aromatic smoky flavor. Stuffed with marzipan, nuts, and raisins and wrapped in aluminum foil, they are simply perfect.
💡 Extra tip: Add a splash of rum to the filling to give the apples a festive note.
Grilled red cabbage 🌿🔥
Red cabbage done differently: prepared right on the grill. Cut into thick slices, marinated with olive oil, honey, and a splash of balsamic, it develops intense roasting notes when grilled that make the cabbage a star.
Stuffed pork tenderloin with winter flavors 🐖🍄
A stuffed pork tenderloin becomes particularly tender and juicy on the grill. Stuffed, for example, with dried apricots, walnuts, and a pinch of blue cheese, wrapped in bacon, each piece reveals its full aroma.
Winter pizza from the grill 🍕❄️
Make your pizza winter-ready: Topped with Gorgonzola, pear slices, and walnuts, enhanced with a drizzle of honey after grilling, the classic summer snack transforms into an impressive winter meal.
💡 Tip: The best way to grill the pizza is on a pizza stone!
Smoked fish on cedar wood 🐟🌲
Grilling salmon fillets on a cedar plank inside a closed grill results in an incomparable taste experience. A crust of honey and mustard completes the exquisite smoky aroma.
Grilled chestnuts with bacon 🌰🥓
Chestnuts skewered together with spicy bacon and grilled over direct coals – a perfect mix of sweet and savory that is typical for the winter season.
Mulled wine chicken 🍗🍷
A whole chicken marinated in a mix of mulled wine spices like red wine, cinnamon, cloves, orange juice, and honey, then indirectly grilled or braised in a Dutch oven – this ensures tender meat with an extraordinary note.
Dessert: Gingerbread brownies from the Dutch oven 🍫🍰
Brownies are a perennial favorite, but with a touch of gingerbread spice and orange zest, they turn into a Christmas delight. Bake them in the Dutch oven for that Christmas aroma and flavor.
💡 Tip: After baking, glaze with white chocolate.
So why not rediscover grilling in winter? From baked apples to game burgers, from grilled red cabbage to mulled wine chicken – let yourself be inspired by the variety of options and turn every grilling session into a tasty winter fairytale. Your solid wood cutting board is the perfect helper to present all these delicacies stylishly.
