Layer BBQ, sauce, slaw, baked beans, and potato salad in the mason jar, and enjoy! Feel free to add your favorite BBQ side to the mix - potato chips, pickles, etc. There are no wrong answers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-4th-of-july-foods#post-1712749 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 14:06:09 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1712749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hawaiian turkey burgers<br /> Grilled bbq smoked sausage<br /> potato salad<br /> Cobb corn<br /> veggie skewers<br /> Trifle- angel food cake, white chocolate pudding strawberry/ peaches/ blackberries </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-4th-of-july-foods#post-1712734 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 14:00:37 +0000 Starfish 1712734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always have a 4th BBQ at the family's house....the menu is usually the same....Brats with tortilla's (not buns), my Mom's potato salad, chips and dips, fruit &amp; veggy tray's....and some form of dessert like cake and what I made last year fruit &amp; brownie Kebabs (small piece of brownie, blueberry, strawberry and a marshmallow).

Burgers and hot dogs are always a good idea too!</p> <p>This is what I'd serve:<br /> -Burger/hot dog "bar" (just grill the patties/dogs, then let people assemble themselves)<br /> -Buffalo chicken dip with tortilla chips<br /> -Spinach dip in pumpernickel bread bowl with bread chunks for dipping<br /> -Potato chips (salt and vinegar, yum)<br /> -Pasta salad<br /> -Black bean &amp; corn salad<br /> -Cheesecake bites and apple pie</p> <p>And I'd buy the spinach dip mix, the pasta salad, and the desserts pre-made. Could make the dips the day before too. The easier, the better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-4th-of-july-foods#post-1712682 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 13:37:42 +0000 MsLipGloss 1712682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Brats (!)</p> <p>Cheeseburgers (maybe slider-style, so people can have a little of everything?)</p> <p>Potato salad</p> <p>A good dip or two (like a layer dip and/or a spinach dip)</p> <p>Brownies</p> <p>Cake/Pie</p> <p>ETA: Not everything needs to be homemade! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-4th-of-july-foods#post-1712661 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 13:32:25 +0000 Smurfette 1712661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: DH just did this a couple weeks ago when we had a cookout. It was so good! I am not sure he will have time on the 4th though cause he is running a race that morning. But we are having another get together the next day it would work for! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-4th-of-july-foods#post-1712559 Fri, 20 Jun 2014 12:59:28 +0000 plantains 1712559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pulled Pork.
