The Ulimate Great Outdoor BBQs

by Dave Valsunkski

When we think of great outdoor bbqs we think of a social function where we have friends and family gather. It’s not just about the sizzling sausages, or the burgers and the fish dishes or side dishes that compliment our grilled food. Like heck it’s not. It’s all the above and lots more. Planning and some fore thought before the great outdoor bbqs will ensure that it will be successful.

Why do we strive or look forward to great outdoor bbqs so much? I guess it has to do with the winter weather and being stuck inside. It feels just awesome to get out into the garden and enjoy the outdoors. And lets not forget eating outside adds that something special to the evening.

Why does food taste better when cooked outside on the barbeque? Well I think we all agree it does taste better cooked under the grill. We are all more adventurous when trying new and different food or dishes when it comes to the great outdoor bbqs. Diets are generally put aside and forgotten for the day.

We add the meat then pile up our plate full of salad. Why is this? It’s not through being guilty, more likely the food is colorful and enticing. I guess it’s the way the light from the sun brings out the colors that make the food appetizing.

When grilling your famous burgers don’t forget to add the buns. Make sure the buns are fresh. You should also consider fresh, crusty bread like the French stick. The French stick is certainly a favorite at the great outdoor bbqs table. Wrap the French stick in a towel and place in the middle of the table on a long dish. Place some covered butter on the table as well. Now we don’t want bugs and flies hovering around our great outdoor bbqs!

A day before our great outdoor bbqs we should be thinking about a quick and easy recipe and the homemade potato salad comes to mind. The potato salad can be placed on the table chilled from the fridge. Prepare the potato salad the night before by cutting new potatoes into quarters (cooked), next add some mayonnaise and chopped chives. Just remember that freeze dried chives are stronger in flavor than fresh chives.

At any great outdoor bbqs, providing or adding accompaniments isn’t all that difficult. Some thought and preparation before hand goes along way. You will be remembered and envied.
