Sizzling Flavors on the Grill

What makes Thai BBQ stand out? It's all in the balance of sweet, salty, sour, and spicy. Fire up your grill and marinate skewers of chicken, shrimp, tofu, or veggies with SIAM’s signature sauces.

Try the Peanut Coconut Sauce for creamy richness or the Satay Seasoning for that irresistible smoky edge. Every bite becomes a flavor adventure when it’s kissed by Thai spices and a bit of charcoal heat.

Try brushing with Sweet Chili Sauce for a tangy glaze, or sprinkle Steak Seasoning for a bold savory finish. Don't forget vegetables like eggplant, bell peppers, and corn brushed with Wok Oil with Chillies and Soy Sauce for a rich, umami-packed char.

For a party-friendly menu, prepare ahead of time: marinate your proteins, soak skewers, and mix your sauces. On the day of the event, focus on grilling and plating. Let the grill be the center of attention—guests will love the smell and sizzle!


Wrap It, Dip It, Love It

Set up a DIY wrap station with fresh ingredients and dipping sauces. Provide rice paper, lettuce cups, grilled meats, tofu, vermicelli noodles, shredded mango, julienned carrots, and plenty of herbs like mint, coriander, and Thai basil.

Guests can roll their own fresh summer rolls and pair them with bowls of Sweet Chili Sauce and lime-soy vinaigrettes. It’s hands-on, fun, and refreshingly light for a hot summer day.

Don’t underestimate the joy of simple snacks. Thai Satay Skewers or Sweet Chilli Wings make excellent small bites while guests mingle and relax in the sun.

Fire up the grill, arrange your sauces and garnishes, and let the day unfold naturally. Add pool floats, fairy lights, and a playlist full of summer beats to set the scene.
Whether your guests are lounging, nibbling, or dancing barefoot on the patio—it’s the ambiance that brings it all together.
