Let’s be honest — BBQ is best when it’s sizzling hot off the grill, right? That’s the beauty of it: the smoke, the heat, the char, the vibe. But what if we told you that not all BBQ has to be cooked on-site to taste amazing?
At Shiok BBQ, we’ve spent years perfecting our marinated meats, working live stations, and building a whole BBQ ecosystem. So, when we started testing cooked BBQ food for delivery… even we had doubts.
"Can it really be shiok if it’s not grilled in front of you?"
Surprisingly, yes — with the right menu, the right R&D, and a whole lot of trial and error.
Why We Took So Long to Launch a Cooked BBQ Menu
Frankly, we weren’t keen to rush into this. Most "pre-cooked BBQ deliveries" we’ve seen out there are mass-produced, overly processed, or just don’t hold up after transport. That’s not us.
We believe in quality. If we can’t serve something that holds its own, we’d rather not sell it.
But after months of testing in our kitchen, taste checks by our chef team, and real-world delivery runs, we finally created something that surprised us — and we think it’ll surprise you too.
What Makes Our Cooked BBQ Delivery Work?
We didn’t just cook and box up any BBQ food. Instead, we took a different approach:
✅ Menu Re-Engineered for Delivery
Not every BBQ dish travels well. So we handpicked ingredients and recipes that hold up even after delivery — think slow-roasted meats, flavour-packed marinades, and side dishes designed to stay delicious without drying out.
✅ Premium Small-Batch Production
These aren’t mass-produced trays of mystery meat. We kept production small on purpose, focusing on flavor and texture. The result? Consistent, high-quality BBQ that doesn’t taste like it came from a central kitchen.
✅ Thoughtful Packaging
Our chefs tested packaging that helps maintain the right moisture and temperature for each dish. So when it reaches you, it still feels fresh — not soggy or stale.
When Is Cooked BBQ Delivery a Good Idea?
Let’s be real — this isn’t for every situation. But if you find yourself in any of these, cooked BBQ delivery might just be a lifesaver:
-
🛋️ No space or time to cook — You're hosting at home or a small office with no grill.
-
🌧️ Rainy day backup — The BBQ pit is booked but the sky says otherwise.
-
👨👩👧👦 Family events with kids/elders — You want BBQ flavour but not the fuss of smoke and fire.
-
🧑💼 Corporate lunches or informal gatherings — You want something different from the usual bentos.
What's on the Menu?
We crafted themed menus like:
-
Winter BBQ Menu – With smoked duck, garlic chicken, roasted vegetables, and poached pear.
-
Chinese Fusion BBQ – With Peking-style duck, Dong Po pork, XO kailan and dumplings.
-
Classic Italian BBQ – With roasted lamb, frittata, Caprese salad, and lavender panna cotta.
All of these are fully cooked, plated in foil trays, and ready to serve. Just open and enjoy.
FAQs: Let’s Clear a Few Things Up
“Will the food arrive warm?”
Yes, we pack and deliver it hot. But if you prefer, we can deliver slightly under-temp so you can heat it briefly before serving — just let us know.
“Can I get it with a BBQ Assistant?”
Not necessary — it’s meant to be ready-to-eat. But if you need help plating or serving for an event, we can work something out.
“Why not just get catering?”
Most catering food is made for mass volume. Our BBQ delivery menu is small-batch, chef-curated, and focused on flavour.
Conclusion: It’s BBQ, Just Smarter
Would we say cooked BBQ delivery replaces the thrill of live grilling? No. But for the right moment — when convenience, flavour, and good vibes matter most — this option delivers. Literally.
We’ve done the hard work (and taste testing) so you don’t have to. All you need to do is eat.
