5 activities to add to your summer entertainment program

Grilling and Barbequing: Having a ‘barbie’ is a popular thing to do, no matter the season in Australia! However, a BBQ is a classic summer lunch or dinner when you’re entertaining and one that most Australians do religiously every summer. Get into the spirit and fire up the barbeque this Summer with some delicious sausages and steaks, especially from Meatsmith if you’re in Victoria!

Ready-made Meals: From stews, curries, sauces to all forms of grilled meat, the in-house chefs at Meatsmith are cooking up highly delicious dishes that can be served at home or any camping or picnic events! Perfect for when you’re entertaining or simply don’t want the fuss of turning on your oven, but still want to enjoy something delicious. Don’t miss out on the aroma-filled lamb shoulders, which are slowly cooked over 8 long hours.

Local Wine Tasting: Host your own wine tasting at your next BBQ dinner or summer picnic! Have everyone bring a bottle of local Australian wine and set-up your own tasting. It’s a great way to support local winemakers as well as familiarize yourself with our great local wine.

Beach Party: When it’s hot in Australia, it’s really hot. And sometimes, only the beach will suffice as the perfect destination for your summer catchup. Turn a picnic in the park into a picnic at the beach in no time! All you need to do is remember to bring a rug, utensils and pack the Esky so everything stays cool.

Cricket: How about raising the stakes of your summer program with a lively and eventful cricket series with your friends? The event can be amplified with an on-spot picnic event and readymade meals/salads that can be ordered online.
