When the weather warms up, there’s nothing quite like firing up the grill for a delicious outdoor meal. But did you know that Aldi, the budget-friendly supermarket, is a treasure trove of grilling essentials? From meat to veggies, seasonings to sauces, this store has everything you need to turn your backyard into a culinary paradise. Here are 15 Aldi grilling finds that I always make sure to stock up on.
Aldi’s 85% lean ground beef is a staple for any grilling aficionado. It’s flavorful and just the right amount of lean for juicy, delicious hamburgers. You can also use it for making stuffed peppers or meatballs for a kebab. The quality is comparable to higher-end grocery stores, but at a much more affordable price.
Chicken drumsticks from Aldi are perfect for grilling. They’re meaty, juicy, and a great value. Whether you prefer your drumsticks simply seasoned or slathered in barbecue sauce, these are sure to be a hit at any cookout. Plus, they’re versatile enough to be used in a variety of recipes.
These brats are a must-have for any grill master. They come in a variety of flavors, including original, beer, and cheddar, and they always grill up perfectly. Pair them with Aldi’s brioche buns and some sauerkraut for a classic bratwurst sandwich, or slice them up to add a savory punch to a grilled pizza.
If you’re looking to add some variety to your grilling repertoire, give Aldi’s fresh Atlantic salmon a try. It’s high-quality, flavorful, and perfect for grilling. Serve it with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a side of grilled asparagus for a lighter, healthier barbecue option.
No cookout is complete without coleslaw, and Park Street Deli’s version is some of the best you’ll find at any supermarket. It’s creamy, tangy, and the perfect complement to any grilled meat. Plus, it saves you the time and hassle of having to make your own from scratch.
These brioche buns are a step above your typical hamburger bun. They’re soft, buttery, and slightly sweet, which makes them the perfect vessel for a juicy burger or brat. They also hold up well under a variety of toppings, so feel free to pile them high.
Aldi’s Simply Nature line of organic products is a great find, and their ketchup is no exception. It’s made with simple, natural ingredients and has a rich, tangy flavor that’s perfect for your grilled burgers and hot dogs. Plus, it’s free from high-fructose corn syrup, which is a win in my book.
Yellow mustard is a classic condiment for any barbecue, and Burman’s version is top-notch. It has a tangy, vinegar-based flavor that complements a variety of grilled meats. Plus, at Aldi’s prices, you can afford to stock up.
Don’t forget the seasonings! Aldi’s Stonemill line offers a variety of grill seasonings, including a stellar Montreal Steak Spice. These seasonings are made with high-quality ingredients and can take your grilling game to the next level.
Clancy’s Kettle Chips are the perfect crunchy side for your grilled feast. They’re thick, crispy, and come in a variety of flavors. I personally love the Salt & Vinegar ones – they add a tangy punch that pairs well with any grilled meat.
These baked beans are a classic barbecue side, and Park Street Deli’s version is one of the best. They’re sweet, tangy, and have a nice hint of smokiness that pairs well with grilled meats. Plus, they’re ready to serve, saving you time in the kitchen.
Don’t forget the greens! A fresh salad is a great complement to any barbecue, and Aldi’s Tuscan Garden salad dressings are a tasty way to dress it up. They offer a variety of flavors, from classic Ranch to tangy Italian, so you’re sure to find one that suits your palate.
Aldi’s Winking Owl line of wines is a great, budget-friendly option for your cookout. Whether you prefer a crisp white to pair with your grilled fish, or a robust red for your steak, they’ve got you covered. Plus, at under $5 a bottle, you can afford to stock up.
What’s a barbecue without dessert? Belmont ice cream is creamy, flavorful, and the perfect sweet treat to end your meal. They offer a variety of flavors, so there’s something for everyone.
Last but not least, don’t forget the marshmallows for toasting! Whether you’re making s’mores or just enjoying them on their own, Baker’s Corner Marshmallows are a must-have. They’re soft, sweet, and melt perfectly over the grill. Plus, they’re made without high-fructose corn syrup, so you can feel good about indulging.
