I would probably do something like a smoked Boston butt and then you can pull the pork ahead of time and just let people make their own sandwiches at party time.

@jhd: Jinx

@regberadaisy: just make it the day before. They reheat that day. DH does it all the time. Or he gets up at 3am to start it.

Greek pita bar. Cook up some ground beef, turkey, chicken, whatever, in garlic, oregano, salt and pepper, cumin, and paprika. Add some mint to the meat if you've got it too. Stick it in a crockpot to keep warm. The rest of the set up is basically like a taco bar - chopped lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, feta, olives, yogurt sauce, hot sauce, and hummus. And pita bread instead of tortillas.

On the side you can serve cold tabbouli salad, veggies to dip in hummus, pita chips, watermelon/feta/mint salad, and cake!

I was going to suggest pulled pork or pulled chicken. It's always a hit for us.

I don't have a grill and we don't go to many cook outs so I actually always love grilled hot dogs and burgers! I am also all for whatever is easiest. You could add sausages too, pretty much the same as hot dogs in terms of cooking.

I also always make pulled pork or chicken in the slow cooker but we don't have a smoker or anything like that.

Burgers (homemade patties) and Hot dog (with tons of toppings) sounds like a winner!

@gingerbebe: the pita bar sounds yummy too
