Fire Up the Grill: Meats & BBQ Favorites
Premium Grill Cuts
Whether you’re cooking for two or twenty, premium meats from the Pig will make your grill the star of the show:
- Fresh Lean Ground Chuck
Nothing says backyard BBQ like the sizzle of burgers on the grill. Our fresh, lean ground chuck is ideal for juicy, flavorful hamburgers that hold their shape and taste amazing with every bite. Whether you’re stacking them high with classic fixings or going gourmet with local toppings, ground beef from The Pig is your go-to for a crowd-pleasing cookout.
It’s a natural match for your grill’s high heat — try it with Pit Boss Competition Blend pellets to build a perfect char. Stack it high with a toasted bun, fresh lettuce, and a swipe of Milo’s Hamburger Sauce.
- Large Gulf Shrimp
There’s nothing like shrimp caught close to home. These large Gulf shrimp are plump, juicy, and made for the grill. Toss them in a citrus marinade or brush them with Full Moon BBQ Sauce for a caramelized, Southern finish that pops with every bite.
They’re ideal for kabobs, skewered with peppers and onions, or seared in a grill basket with Wenzel Hot Sauce for a spicy twist.
- Baby Back Ribs
Bring bold, Southern flavor to your Memorial Day grill with fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs — a timeless classic that’s made to be savored low and slow. Smoke them to perfection with Pit Boss Hickory pellets or brush on a generous layer of Saw’s BBQ Sauce for that signature smoky, rich finish. Whether you’re going for stacked BBQ sandwiches or serving them as the star of the spread, these ribs are tender, mouthwatering, and sure to steal the show.
Southern Classics
- Conecuh Sausage (Evergreen, AL)
Alabama’s legendary sausage brings bold, hickory-smoked flavor straight to your grill — a true Southern staple.
