There’s nothing quite like a summer BBQ. The smell of burgers on the grill, the sound of laughter as friends catches up over cold drinks, and the feel of the warm sun on your skin. But if you’re not prepared, hosting a BBQ theme party can quickly turn into a stressful ordeal. Here are some tips on how to throw a last-minute BBQ without breaking a sweat:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan Ahead  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What’s a better way to enjoy Summer than hosting a BBQ? Embrace the maximum- the more, the merrier! The best way not to get stressed out during the last-minute BBQ parties is to have supplies on hand. Keep your freezer and pantry stocked at all times with anything you might need, from cups, napkins, and plates to drinks, hot dogs, and more ingredients.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If making last-minute arrangements stresses you out, pick the finest date for your backyard celebration. Would a weekday or a weekend be preferable? The best day to have your BBQ depends on when your visitors will be available, other errands you may have on that day, and the summer activities your kids are engaged in. Plan your food when you’ve decided on the date. In this way, you may purchase everything you need in advance and even prepare some items, such as cold salads and desserts, a day or two beforehand.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose Your Menu Wisely  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Make no more than three objects entirely from scratch; more can be too much. Store-bought food may not always be terrible, particularly if your favorite bakery or specialized shop is close by. Run to the shop and choose from a broad selection of organic or healthy dishes if you’re short on time. To save time and effort, stick to your tried-and-true recipes that will be a hit with your visitors.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider fast dishes and lite sides to avoid giving your guests a heaviness in the summertime. Burgers, hot dogs, and brats are classic barbecue fares that go well with salads and finger snacks. And end the BBQ with delicious desserts<\/a> such as popsicles or ice-creams to beat the Summer heat.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, one can add food stations such as beverage stations or burger bars with all the condiments or a hotdog spread and s’mores bar. Set up things so your guests can make their own BBQ foods; that saves you a lot of time.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delegate Chores  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Enlist help and assign duties to your buddies so you do not have to stress about completing everything yourself. For example, have your brother scrub the deck, or your friend clean the grill. The kids can wipe down the outdoor furniture or do some light weeding. Also, don’t be afraid to ask your visitors for help. They can contribute too! Ask your guests to bring dessert and wine that goes well with BBQ food<\/a>. Plus, you can even put someone in charge of games and entertainment.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep It Simple  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There’s no need to go overboard, especially when you’re throwing BBQ last minute. Do not mess yourself with lighting or decorating. Just keep in mind that as a guest, you’re thrilled to be invited to your home and are grateful for the wonderful time you will have with your buddies. Decorations and fussy food are not necessary for a memorable BBQ.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the outdoor BBQ ideas that will help you in planning a last-minute BBQ. To make your task even easier, here are some last-minute BBQ food recipes that will help you save a lot of time.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
