Summer BBQing with Outback Spirit Spiced Rubs

Sometimes the most difficult thing about cooking a meal in summer, after a hot and tiring day, is thinking a) what you can cook and b) what you can cook that won't turn you into a complete hot mess.  I don't know about you, but I often go blank and can't think of a thing I'd like to cook. For those family meals where your inspiration has taken the holiday you haven't yet been able to manage, I humbly offer a few good standby ideas for skewers (or brochettes if you want to be fancy) to cook on the barbie - take that hot cooking outside and hand it over to the chief BBQ master. These a quick to make, hopefully don't break the bank and are pretty yum. Our Spiced rubs can be used in a multitude of ways but seasoning these skewers is a no brainer. I love to cook the meatier ones straight on the grill and get that light charred flavour. Don't forget the olive oil or restorative gin and tonic.
