BBQ with Blue Light Card
As the summer months get ever closer, it offers a much-needed opportunity for a BBQ social with friends and family, We Brits do love a barbecue so - whatever the weather holds - we know that at some point this summer, our members will most likely take out the tongs and crack out the cutlery for some somewhat-charred (yet hopefully cooked!) cuisine.
Whether you’re more of a disposable-BBQ-in-the-park type or have a traditional brick set-up in your back garden, we’re here to highlight some of our members mouth-watering recommendations and frustrations when it comes to barbequing.
Unsurprisingly, when we asked for your top BBQ must-haves, burgers came out on top (76%) followed by hotdogs (42%) and potato salad, while 85.7% of Blue Light Card members prefer to bring alcohol and mixers, to really get the party started, over side dishes and snacks.
Though the weather may cause a wash out on occasion (driving 60% of us bonkers in the process as we all scarper inside); with grill-friendly recipes from Greece to tasty Spanish tapas, there are tonnes of options to feed your friends and family!
So, whether you prefer stuffing your face with a sausage or biting into a burger, why not stock up and treat yourself without leaving the comfort of your home by ordering Muscle Food’s exclusive Blue Light Card Hamper (including award-winning chicken, lean diced beef, lean steak mince, extra-lean sausages and more!) for just £39 and claim an Extra Hamper for just £1!
55.7% of members surveyed also report preferring Ketchup over BBQ sauce (we’re not mentioning the lonely 8.5% of you who claim to prefer mustard – you heathens!). But, if you’re looking to spice up your next shift and become the talk at your station, put your tastebuds to the test with an extra zing of flavour with 25% off all Hot Face Sauces branded products (ranging from Very Mild to EXTREME!).
Planning a cheeky celebration?
While we know your lives don’t stop for public holidays (if anything - the pressure ramps up with the general public’s shenanigans) and with the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee right around the corner, it’s high time to stock up on extra seats and nibbly bits!
Take the stress out of planning things around your shifts, gather your loved ones together and save money on enjoying time with your nearest and dearest this summer with Blue Light Card!
