Im having a cook-out and I want to make sure that I have a good variety of cook-out grub. Other than burgers, hotdogs, potato salad, deviled eggs... what else do ya think?


Answers:
At my house it's not a BBQ without all of the above plus coleslaw, beer, pasta salad, beer, baked beans, beer, chips & dip, beer......Don't mayo, mustard, ketchup & the other "fixins" so everyone can create their own taste...Above all else - Don't forget the beer!!

Can't go wrong with chips and cole slaw.

cookies...u can never go wrong with those :)

where Im from you better have potato salad, baked beans, garlic bread, roasted corn and a tub of iced beer

Baked beans, rice salad, or a green leafy salad? Bruschetta? Cheese platters? Shrimp? Grilled fish? Crusty bread? Something with a dip? Like hummus and chips? A pasta-pesto salad?

Shake it up a bit and don't go all traditional!

Ribs, coleslaw, ambrosia, pineapple chicken, corn on the cob.

hamburger
hotdogs
pickles
& all tht stuff
shishcabobs r good 2

BEER!!! Not a real cookout with it. And try some more grown-up food like steak, chicken, sausages. Chips/salsa are always a quick and cheap appetizer. Oh and roasted corn on the cob...yum.

chicken, grilled veggies, grilled fruit when is it so i can be there!baked beans, salad,maybe a steak or two.

Sloppy Joes, watermelon, corn on the cob, brownies, potato salad, lemonade, baked beans, potato chips, taco salad, jello salad, fruit salad...

No cook-out is complete without fried potatoes and onions off the grill and corn on the cob.

Ice cold beer like a Coronoa or iced drinks like margaritas.

Another good thing is non-grilled food. Fried fish or chicken are great at a cook out.

peas salad tuna fish fruit chips drink

veggies and dip. Personally I love all the foods that you listed. Nachos and cheese dip. Cupcakes. Chex Mix. Olives and pickles.

Vegetarian Pasta Salad?

We always have the regular burgers & hot-dogs, and also either steak or lamb chops, and sausages like Italian or toulouse. Veggies & dip and one or 2 kinds of chips before hand, then a green salad, potato salad and if there's really a lot of eople then maybe a broccoli salad, or tabouli, or pasta salad. Grilled corn on the cob will never go to waste either!
Very important: Beer, wine, and soda (not everybody drinks alcohol!)
Then for dessert, brownies & ice cream, or strawberry shortcake, or grilled fruits on ice cream with a cinnamon-spice syrup. (pineapple slices, peach halves, etc)
Mmm, hungry now, and it's getting too cold out for a good BBQ!
Have a great time!

baked beans.....some type of green salad for veggies......chips and dip...just to snack on dont want anything to filling to spoil bbq...... some kind of rolls for your meats...buns.....desserts something light .....fruit salad jello ....cake..holds up well outside....relish tray is ok but i would not go out of my way to have one they usually get wasted......that is enough as it is usually just a lot of mingling...

Fresh and Smoked Sausage, Rice Dressing, Baked Beans, BEER!, Garlic Bread, Ribs, Chicken in a Blanket (Boneless Chicken seasoned well and wrapped with Bacon), Bratwursts, Stuffed Mushrooms, Corn on the Cob, and Macaroni Salad.

HOTDOGS HAMBURGER MEAT LETTUCE TOMATO A ONION CHICKEN A SLAB OF RIBS SAUSAGE SOME FISH ETC

Grilled fresh pineapple has an excellent taste and is something different.

Sausage Peppers and Onions, Cucumber salad with sour cream and onions, Scallops wrapped with bacon, Lemonade
