Cheese tray (various cubed cheese on toothpicks)
Pasta Salad
Steamed shrimp
Sweedish Meatballs
Wings (hot, lemon pepper, bbq)
Chicken Fingers
Nachos with cheese dip in a crock pot, guacamole, salsa, sour cream
Jalapeno poppers
Baby back ribs
Potato skins topped with cheese and bacon
Sandwiches cut into fourths
Cookies and brownies
One of my easiest and most popular parties was when I set up a taco station - Soft taco shells, hard taco shells, ground beef, grilled chicken, refried beans, rice, lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, jalapenos, shredded cheese, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and nachos with cheese
Get some shrimp and peel, devein, wash them up. Take some good cheese such as Monterey Jack (or your favorite) and place on the shrimp's curve, wrap it all up in uncooked bacon, put a toothpick in to hold it together and place on the grill. These are super easy to make and they will fly off the table.
buffalo wings, shrimp-kabob, and dad used to make these great teriyaki chicken things that were wrapped with bacon and grilled before he died.
How he made them:
Get chicken, cover in teriyaki sauce and let sit over night.
Next morning, wrap with bacon and put a toothpick threw it.
Grill to perfection!
