With the sunny weather on the rise, there’s no better way to celebrate than getting out in the ‘van and sparking up the barbecue.

To celebrate National BBQ Week, we’ve picked out some campsite-friendly recipes for you to try out, some of which have been contributed by our members. Take a look at the Club Together discussion to see all of our members’ suggestions.

Simple Sticky Chicken

Try this simple but satisfying chicken dish provided by Grayginge on Club Together. Serve with warm pitta breads and a fresh salad.

• Diced chicken breast
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 5 tbsp golden syrup

Mix together soy sauce and golden syrup in a bowl. Marinade the chicken breast in the sticky mixture overnight. When you’re ready to cook, skewer the chicken and cook on the barbecue, turning until cooked through and golden brown. Top tip: If you’re using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them first to stop them burning on the fire.

Jumbo Prawns on Sticks

Get stuck in with this easy grilled prawn recipe from Martin Dorey. Check out Martin's Camper Van Cook column in the Club Magazine every month for more camping recipes.

• 4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
• Black pepper
• 50g butter
• 20 fresh jumbo prawns

Thread two or three jumbo prawns on skewers and put them on the BBQ. While they are cooking (they will only take a few minutes) mix the garlic and black pepper in the butter in a ramekin or small pan, then place over the heat to melt the butter and give you a very garlicky hot dip. When the prawns are done, peel them, dip them and enjoy!
