Smoky chimichurri steak with chilli crisp eggs

For a hearty breakfast, making steak and eggs on the Weber Genesis EX-325S is a game-changer. Start by seasoning your steak and preheating the grill; the three powerful burners ensure even heat distribution for that perfect sear. While the steak grills to medium-rare perfection, char some jalapeños on the grates to add a smoky kick. Once everything is nearly done, whip up a vibrant chimichurri sauce using the grilled jalapeños for extra depth of flavour. As the steak rests, crack a couple of fresh eggs into a cast-iron skillet on the side burner. With its spacious cooking area and precise temperature control, the Weber Genesis EX-325S makes it easy to create a delicious steak-and-eggs breakfast topped with smoky chimichurri that will impress your family and fuel your day ahead. Enjoy the smoky flavours and the satisfaction of grilling outdoors!

Fluffy flapjacks with braaied Melba fruit

For a breakfast that perfectly balances sweet and smoky flavours, making flapjacks and grilled stone fruit on the Weber Genesis EX-325S is a fantastic idea. Use a cast-iron skillet or griddle on the side burner for the flapjacks, ensuring even cooking and a lovely golden colour. While the flapjacks cook, slice up some fresh peaches and raspberries and toss them in a bit of butter and maple syrup. Once the flapjacks are nearly done, place the stone fruit directly onto the grill grates to caramelise and enhance its natural sweetness. The combination of fluffy, warm flapjacks and perfectly grilled stone fruit creates a breakfast that’s both satisfying and bursting with flavour. With the Weber Genesis EX-325S, you can effortlessly transform your morning routine into a gourmet experience, impressing family and friends with your outdoor cooking skills.
