Ingredients

  • Meat: Choose your favorite cuts like steak, chicken wings, pork chops, or lamb, about 1 kg.
  • Durbl Food-Grade Silicone Bags: These magical bags will make the marinating process a breeze.
  • Marinade: Here's a basic marinade recipe that you can adjust to your taste:
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • Two tablespoons of red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • Two tablespoons honey or brown sugar
  • Four cloves garlic, crushed
  • One teaspoon of black pepper
  • One teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • One teaspoon salt
  • One teaspoon of dried herbs (like rosemary thyme)


Steps

  • Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, mix olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, honey, garlic, black pepper, paprika, salt, and dried herbs. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty—mix thoroughly to ensure all the flavors meld together.
  • Marinate the Meat: Place your meat cuts into the Durbl food-grade silicone bag, then pour in the marinade. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible so the marinade can better penetrate the meat. You can also gently massage the bag to distribute the marinade evenly.
  • Refrigerate and Marinate: Place the silicone bag with the meat and marinade in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the meat to absorb the flavorful marinade fully, making it tender and juicy when grilled.


Prepare for Grilling:

  • 1.Remove the marinated meat from the fridge and prepare your grill or BBQ setup.
  • 2.Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  • 3.Remember to brush some oil on the grill to prevent sticking.


Start Grilling: Take the marinated meat from the silicone bag and place it on the preheated grill. Adjust the cooking time based on the type and thickness of the meat to ensure each piece is thoroughly cooked and has a nice, crispy exterior.

For example, grill steak for 3-5 minutes and chicken wings for 8-10 minutes per side. You can brush on some leftover marinade during grilling to enhance the flavor.

Enjoy Your Feast: Once the meat is grilled to perfection, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with your favorite sides or salads, and enjoy your delicious summer BBQ.

Tips

  • Variety of Marinades: Don't stick to just one marinade—experiment with different seasonings like lemon juice, red wine, and chili sauce to create your unique flavors.
  • Eco-Friendly and Practical: Durbl silicone bags marinate well and are reusable and easy to clean, making them a perfect choice for eco-conscious individuals.
  • Fruit Pairings: Summer fruits are in season, so pair your BBQ with refreshing fruits like watermelon, pineapple, or peaches. They not only cleanse the palate but also add a touch of freshness.


Using Durbl food-grade silicone bags for your BBQ simplifies the marinating process and brings more fun and flavor to your meals. This summer, give it a try! Enjoy the food, enjoy life, and savor every delicious bite.

How to freeze bake food with Durbl bags
How to freeze bake food with Durbl bags
Fresh-baked treats are always a joy, yet they don't stay fresh for long. If you find yourself with too many baked goods after a baking session, freezing is a great way to keep them fresh for months. The method varies depending on the item. Silicone, durable and chemical-free, is ideal for storing these goodies. We'll show you how to use reusable silicone bags and containers to freeze baked goods well and tell you which ones freeze best. Preparation Before Freezing Essential steps before freezing baked goods include: Cool Completely: Ensure baked items are at room temperature to prevent moisture build-up in the container. Portion: For larger baked goods like cakes or bread, slicing them into smaller pieces facilitates easier defrosting. Wrap: Use cling film or parchment paper to wrap the goods, then place them in silicone bags. This helps retain freshness and flavor. How to Freeze Sandwich Bread and Burger Buns Soft breads like sliced bread, burger buns, and hot dog buns last longer than hard breads. But they can still get moldy or stale. The good news is that they freeze well in gallon bags. Just make sure the bag is closed tight. For extra safety, put bakings in reusable freezer bags and keep them for up to 3 months. To thaw, leave them out on the kitchen counter. How to Freeze Muffins and Scones Freeze single-serving baked goods like muffins and scones using the same method as for bagels. Wrap them individually in cling film or place them in reusable sandwich bags. Group the wrapped items in a larger freezer bag for storage and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat frozen muffins and scones, put them straight into the oven or toaster at 300℃ to 325℃ Fahrenheit. You don't need to thaw them first. How to Freeze Bread Wrap whole loaves (like farmer's bread or yeast bread) in cling film twice, then seal them in a large freezer bag. If you plan to use the bread for sandwiches or toast, slice it beforehand. This way, you can take out only what you need; the rest can be stored for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature to allow it to reabsorb the condensate formed in a Silicone bag. How to Freeze Bagels Fresh bagels are wonderful, but buying them in bulk is cost-effective. To maintain their freshness, slice the bagels in half before freezing. Wrap them tightly in cling film or store them in reusable sandwich bags, removing as much air as possible before sealing. Defrosting Method To defrost, move the silicone bags or containers from the freezer to the fridge. It usually takes a few hours to overnight to thaw slowly. Some items, like cakes or bread, can also be defrosted at room temperature for a few hours. Avoid defrosting in the microwave, as it may affect the texture and taste of the food. Using silicone bags and containers to freezer baked goods is both a convenient and eco-friendly method. It not only helps reduce food waste but also ensures you can enjoy freshly baked delights at any time. Using the right methods, you can keep most baked items fresh for a long time.
