Hosting Your First BBQ Like a Pro in Your New Home

Congratulations on your new home! Now it’s time to celebrate with a summer staple – a backyard BBQ. At Susan Brewer Service First Real Estate, we know making memories in your new space is special. Here are some tips to ensure your first BBQ is a sizzling success:

Guest List & Grill Prep:

• Consider Capacity: Be realistic about how many people your space can comfortably accommodate. Factor in seating and mingling areas.
• Grill Masterclass: Dust off your grill and brush up on your grilling skills. Practice your signature dish beforehand to avoid any last-minute mishaps.

Menu Magic:

• Crowd-Pleasing Classics: Opt for a mix of familiar favorites like burgers, hot dogs, and veggie kebabs. Consider dietary restrictions and offer vegetarian or vegan options.
• Delectable Sides: Delegate side dishes amongst guests to share the potluck love. This reduces prep work for you and ensures a variety of delicious offerings.
• Don’t Forget the Drinks: Stock up on a variety of beverages to cater to different preferences. Offer non-alcoholic options for all ages.

Setting the Stage for Fun:

• Outdoor Oasis: Spruce up your patio or backyard with festive decorations, comfy seating, and shade umbrellas. Outdoor games like cornhole or frisbees add a touch of entertainment.
• Ambiance is Key: Create a welcoming atmosphere with string lights and outdoor music (be mindful of noise levels).
• Indoor Comfort: Keep the inside of your home cool and inviting. Guests may want to use the bathroom or grab extra drinks.
