Throw the Best BBQ Party This Summer: The Ultimate Guide

You've spent all winter cooped up inside of your house. So now that it's finally starting to heat up outside, why not start planning that BBQ party you've been dreaming about since last September?

You can invite your family members, your friends, your neighbors, your coworkers, and more to your backyard BBQ party and make the most of the warm weather. You can also chow down on some delicious food and throw back a few cold drinks while you're doing it.

Here is your ultimate guide to throwing the best BBQ party this summer.

Plan Out a Menu

When people show up at your house for your BBQ party, they're going to come hungry. It's your job to fill their bellies with all of the best BBQ foods from the moment they set foot in your backyard.

Once you decide on a date for your barbecue party and write it down on your calendar, start planning out a menu for it. Plan to serve:

  • Hot dogs
  • Hamburgers
  • Steaks
  • Ribs
  • Chicken breasts
  • Sausages

Make sure you've got plenty of sides ready to go, too. These sides should include everything from French fries and baked beans to potato salad and cole slaw.

If you think you might have vegetarian/vegan guests in attendance, add things to your menu for them as well. You want everyone to be 100 percent satisfied with the foods you serve.

Invest in a Great Grill

Are you still using the same old grill that you've been using since you moved into your house 10 years ago? Invest in a new one for your BBQ party.

You should also consider taking your BBQ to the next level by purchasing the best pellet smoker you can find. Pellet smokers make it easy to cook up mouth-watering BBQ meals.

Grab Drinks for Everyone

There is nothing quite like sipping on an ice-cold adult beverage at a BBQ party. It's the highlight of summer for some people.

Keep a cooler stocked with all kinds of different adult beverages. From beer to wine to hard alcohol for mixed drinks, you should have everything on hand for your guests.

You should also bring out other coolers filled with soft drinks, juices, and waters for the younger crowd. It'll help everyone beat the heat and stay hydrated throughout the course of your barbecue party.

Set Up Fun Games

Do you have a pool in your backyard? If so, that will be more than enough to keep your BBQ party guests occupied.

If you don't, no worries. There are dozens of fun BBQ games that you can set up for your guests to play. Some good games for a barbecue party are:

  • Cornhole
  • Bocce
  • Badminton
  • Water balloon toss
  • Inflatable bowling

All the eating and playing that your guests do at your BBQ party will send them home happy at the end of the day.

Start Planning Your First BBQ Party of the Season

Set the right tone for this summer by mapping out your first BBQ party now. And don't let it be your last barbecue party of the season, either!

Soak up every bit of the summertime by holding regular BBQ parties. Your family members, friends, neighbors, and coworkers will have a blast coming to your house several times throughout the summer to party.
