From marinating the spiciest wings to grilling the sauciest ribs, American ‘pitmasters’ take barbecuing so seriously that it has led to week-long festivals and reality TV shows. That’s where Tesco has drawn inspiration for its latest own-label brand Fire Pit, which aims to make it easy for Brits to release their inner grill-seeker. Here’s our pick of the range

 

Chicken and Maple Hot Dog Sausages

Among the Americana, Tesco has still managed to cater to Brits’ love of chorizo. These cured sausages are medium-sized and come in a pack of six, ready to pop on the grill.

One of three new marinade packs hitting Tesco shelves for summer, The Hot One brings heat to red meat with habanero chillies and lime, The Sweet One is teriyaki flavoured with soy, ginger purée and honey for lamb and veggies, and The Smoky One marries chipotle and red peppers for flavouring chicken. 

Hickory BBQ Pork Kebabs 

Tesco Fire Pit 4 Hickory BBQ Pork Kebabs

No BBQ range can be complete without hickory. These pork shoulder chunks are marinated in smoked salt, garlic and tomato, on sticks for easy, garden party grabbing.

A cupboard staple in the US, Tesco’s take on the classic burger sauce combines gherkins, dill and mustard, resulting in a creamy topping for, well, burgers. 

Lamb Burgers

Offering something slightly different to the usual sea of beefburgers at a barbie, these lamb burgers are simply seasoned with salt, onion and pepper.
