Get your grill on with the best Keto Grilling recipes that will take your summer BBQ to the next level! Go beyond basic burgers with 60 extraordinary Keto BBQ recipes: chicken, steak, pork, salmon, shrimp, veggies & more!
Summer grilling season is in full effect & for those of us on the keto diet that’s good news: because most of your favorites are keto-friendly – with a few minor adjustments. When I started keto six years ago, family get-togethers stressed me out & typically ended in sadness & hunger. Let’s make sure history doesn’t repeat itself. I want you to know you can enjoy summer cookouts & BBQs & keep losing weight on keto – just keep these things in mind.
1. Skip the Bun
You may want to think of what you’ll say to well-meaning family members who don’t understand your low carb lifestyle. I like to go in strong with a brief description of how carbs spike insulin levels – That usually does it:)
2. Watch Out For Hidden Carbs In BBQ Sauces & Rubs
Stay away from added sugar – brown sugar – honey & molasses. You may be surprised how much is in your go-to BBQ sauces – I’m listing a few keto-friendly alternatives in case you need them
- Dry Rub (Chicken or Pork) – Low Carb Maven
- Savory Low Carb Marinade – Kalyn’s Kitchen
- Low Carb BBQ Sauce – All Day I Dream About Food
- Low Carb Ketchup – Wholesome Yum
3. Stay Hydrated
I’m not about to be a hypocrite and tell you not to drink an adult beverage or two – cocktails & cookouts make summer fabulous! Just sip a little extra H20 for every drink you have – This will keep you from getting dehydrated & having a wicked hangover! Here’s a list of keto-friendly cocktails & mixers in case you need a reminder.
Now that I officially feel like your Mom – Let’s move on to the food! I did not list images for every recipe – but I did organize them by chicken, beef, pork, fish, and veggies! Oh, and just in case you’re in the market for a new grill this summer, be sure to check out what Thermos has to offer:)
