Grilling: Recipes & Ideas
All the essentials at a glance
The difference between grilling and BBQ (Barbecue) lies primarily in temperature, cooking time, and technique. Although both methods take place on a grill, they employ different approaches.
Grilling – quick & hot
Classic grilling involves working with direct, high heat:
- Temperatures usually above 200 °C
- Short cooking times of a few minutes
- Food is placed directly over the heat source
- Ideal for sausages, steaks, burgers, or grilled vegetables
👉 Grilling is spontaneous, straightforward, and perfect for quick enjoyment.
BBQ – slow & gentle
BBQ (Barbecue) relies on low temperatures and patience:
- Temperatures between 90–130 °C
- Long cooking times over several hours
- Cooking with indirect heat
- Often combined with smoke (smoking)
👉 Typical BBQ classics include pulled pork, ribs, or brisket.
Proper seasoning for grilling means choosing the right time, the appropriate spice form, and the correct dosage. This results in a balanced grilled dish with beautiful roasted aromas.
1. When to season when grilling?
Timing is crucial:
- Before grilling: ideal for marinades and rubs, so the seasoning can penetrate
- Shortly before grilling: for steaks or vegetables for even seasoning
- After grilling: perfect for pepper, herbs, or fine spices
👉 It's better to add salt to delicate grilled food shortly before or after grilling.
2. Rub or marinade – which is better?
Both have their place:
- Rubs (dry spice blends)
Ideal for meat, vegetables, and vegan alternatives. They provide seasoning and roasted aromas. - Marinades
Consist of oil, spices, and some acid. They make grilled food juicy and are especially suitable for poultry, fish, and vegetables.
3. How much seasoning is right?
Even dosing is important:
- approx. 10–20 g of spice per kg of grilled food
- Season vegetables a little lighter, re-seasoning after grilling if necessary
4. Don't forget to re-season
Fine spices such as pepper, chili, or herbs are best used after grilling. This way, they remain balanced and fresh.
When grilling, spices are used that can withstand high temperatures and provide strong roasted aromas. Whether meat, vegetables, or vegan alternatives – the right seasoning makes the difference between good and truly excellent.
An overview of the most important grilling spices
Paprika (sweet & smoked)
Paprika is a classic for grilling. It provides color, mild seasoning, and goes well with meat, vegetables, and halloumi.
Pepper
Black pepper, colorful pepper, or coarsely ground varieties add depth and a slight spiciness. Ideal for seasoning after cooking or as part of rubs.
Garlic & Onion
Indispensable for savory grilled dishes. They provide structure and flavor – especially popular with meat, vegetables, and vegan patties.
Chili & hot spices
For those who like it spicier. Chili provides pleasant heat and harmonizes excellently with grilled meat and BBQ dishes.
Herbs & Mediterranean spices
Rosemary, thyme, oregano, or herb blends are particularly suitable for grilled vegetables, poultry, and vegetarian grilling.
Grilling spices or rubs – which is better?
Grilling spices can be used individually or as grilling and BBQ rubs:
- Rubs are ideal for meat, vegetables, and vegan grilled food
- They are easy to apply
- They ensure even seasoning and roasted aromas
👉 In the Grilling collection from STAY SPICED! you will find a large selection of grilling spices, rubs, and blends for every grilling style.
Vegetarian & Vegan Grilling – How to Make it Truly Delicious
Vegetarian and vegan grilling is long past being just a side dish to meat. With the right ingredients and thoughtful seasoning, plant-based grilled food becomes a true highlight. Robust spices, roasted flavors, and appropriate preparation are key.
What is suitable for vegetarian & vegan grilling?
Particularly popular are:
- Grilled vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, corn, eggplant, or mushrooms
- Tofu, tempeh, and plant-based alternatives
- Halloumi cheese and vegan cheese alternatives
- Vegan burger patties and skewers
These ingredients naturally have little flavor of their own – this is precisely where the right seasoning plays its part.
