DS's birthday is in June, and we are doing a casual, fishing themed birthday party.
Since we live in Memphis and our BBQ is famous, we're just going to do catered BBQ - pulled pork, pulled chicken, baked beans, slaw, etc. I'll add some things our vegan friends can eat. Banana pudding and birthday cake for dessert.
Is that something you would like as a guest, or should we look at other ideas?

I might be biased b/c I am not from the south.... HECK YEAH I would love some bbq at a birthday party! I think a lot of times people think you don't eat well at kids' parties, so I think your guests will be delighted!

Um I'm from the Midwest where BBQ isn't a "big" deal, and this sounds amazing to me! I would love some yummy BBQ!

@BakerBee: Rendezvous, I believe DH and I can never agree whose BBQ is best. He's a Central kinda guy.

@grizz: I love both. I also love the Bar-B-Que Shop, but it's not a popular choice.

I had BBQ at my wedding, so I'm not an impartial voice, but... sounds great to me!

@BakerBee: Now I want Texas toast and BBQ spaghetti. I love the Shop! That's another good option for us

I think it looks great, but I might add something fresh and cold to the menu, like veggies or a green salad or a fruit salad.

That sounds amazing! I am a pretty darn picky eater, but I would eat nearly all of that and find it to be delicious.

I'm not a huge BBQ fan personally but I know most people are so it's a great choice! My husband would love it! I agree with a pp that some fresh fruit on the side would be a nice touch.

@MaisyMay: Yes, I was thinking I'd do platters of fruit and veggies as well.

@grizz: Central BBQ all the way!
We did BBQ at our wedding, much to the disdain of DH's cousin/our wedding coordinator. She said it would be too messy, and that people don't like to eat stuff like that in front of others. I said that was silly and went about ordering the goods.

Everything on your menu except for the banana pudding is what I would gladly eat. Yum Yum
