If you’re craving some of your favourite burgers and steaks from various restaurants around the city, it’s now possible to recreate the magic at home. Here are some establishments offering DIY burger and barbecue kits in the UAE.

Salt

You can now whip up and sink your teeth into home-grown brand Salt's famous sliders without stepping outside the house. The popular burger spot has introduced home kits offering everything you could possibly need.

The mini kit, with 10 wagyu beef patties, buns, lettuce, cheese, jalapenos, pickles, chopped onions, tomato slices, salt, pepper and three sauces (original, fire and barbecue sriracha) is priced at Dh210, and there’s a large version with 20 patties and buns priced at Dh375.

Salt customers are more used to the UAE burger chain's food trucks.

The UAE’s first delivery service for organic beef patties is here to help you whip up professional burgers in your kitchen (or garden).

Those interested can place orders for boxes of six, 12 or 18 raw burgers, priced at Dh205, Dh310 and Dh415 respectively, before choosing their sauce (ketchup and mayo are great, but how about giving the special "messy" or "fire" sauces a try?). The burgers will be delivered along with buns, cheddar, pickles, onions, lettuce and tomatoes, within insulated cooler bags.

Have a sweet tooth? The brand has recently included a Yam’ah Box with two tubs of home-made ice cream, and a selection of crunchy toppings and drizzle sauces, plus speciality coffee, cups and spoons for six, priced at Dh320.

The service delivers across the UAE, but orders have to be made through the website a day in advance.
