bbq: It is going to be my daughters first birthday. We are having a bbq/cookout thing with at least if not over 100 people. What kinds of food would be a good idea to serve? Recipes would be great too. I don't want to do the traditional hamburgers and hotdogs but I dont trust just any receipe from just a website. If someone happens to have a receipe they really like it would help out loads. Thank you for your time (:|||Pasta salad, Potatoe salad, Deviled Eggs,baked beans,corn on the cob, veggie platter, cheese and crackers, nachos/salsa/, chips, salad, chicken nuggets for the kids, baked mac and cheese, PIZZA, stuffed breads,cold cut platter with rolls, red watermelon! Can put soda, waters, and juice boxes in a beach cooler filled with ice! That's what I do when we have a party outside! Go to cotsco or Bj's wholesale club and buy in bulk! They have appetizers that are already made just cook in oven! They have alot of different stuff! I always buy the breaded shrimp, mini quiches, mozzarella sticks, chicken wings, mini hot dogs wraps, hor'doereves. Bj's has great decorated theme cakes! I always buy mine there! The chocolate mousse filling is so good! They also do-bring a picture of your child and they will put it on the cake! I did that for my kids and they loved it! They thaught it was so cool to have a picture of them on the cake! Can go to dollar store for decorations!And goody bag toys! You can also put animal crackers, goldfish, fruit snacks in goody bags instead of candy! Play dough is a idea! HAVE FUN!!!|||I would eat sloppy joes or something nobody is going to expect! Somthing that is bbqish but not traditional like you said! Also for a really easy bbq sauce for anything you might make you can mix ketchup, brown sugar and worchestire sauce. The main part is ketchup so mosty that and mabye a little under half part brown sugar and just a little worchestire sauce... it depends on how much of each you like. You can also add mustard if you want it sweet but I personaly only think it is good if you are putting it on something like pulled pork. Also, if you want kind of a smokey flavor to it you can add just a LITTLE bit of store bought bbq sauce but if you dont have that it is o.k because it is not that important......Hope This Helps!!! :)|||Chicken will be your cheapest bet. If not that flank steak or getting a 1/4 of a cow cut up at a butcher. If you have a sams in your area they have good meat at good prices. Ingredients 3 cloves garlic, minced 2 teaspoons butter 1 cup Heinz ketchup (a must for us) 1/4 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup chili sauce (Heinz is a good one) 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 1/2-3/4 tablespoon celery seed 1 tablespoon prepared mustard 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 dashes hot pepper sauce 8 large chicken breast halves, bone-in with skin (a large family pack will usually have about 7-8 breasts.) Directions 1In a saucepan, saute the garlic in butter until tender. 2Add the next 8 ingredients. 3Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. 4Remove from the heat and set aside. 5Grill the chicken, covered over medium heat for 30 minutes, turning occasionally. 6Baste with sauce. 7Grill 15 minutes longer or until juices run clear. 8Continue basting and turning during the last 15 minutes of cooking. 9Serve with any extra sauce you set aside for dipping. 10(The sauce is just that delicious!).|||Well, if you think about it, you can't sit at the grill all day for 100 people. Im thinking of BBQ beef or pork sandwiches Make the meat the day before then shred it and add bbq sauce to a chaffing tray I think you will need alot of chaffing trays Potato salad Macaroni salad BBQ beans Buns Corn on the cob (hot in chaffing trays ) this way, you wont have to do anything (cooking wise ) the day of the party Go to Costco for the meat, potato salad, macaroni salad, bbq sauce, buns, corn on the cobs, plates, forks, and the cake|||If I am tired of the same old bbq , me and my family will still have chicken, and burgers, but we also put tilapia on the grill take tilapia season with your favorite seasonings cut up green peppers and onions a dash of lemon juice and wrap individually and grill for about 15 mins also try chicken and shrimp skrewers on the grill you should still stick with some traditional stuff because everyone does not like seafood.... Good Luck and enjoy!!|||100 people will be very expensive. I would go with chicken legs, hamburgers, hotdogs , Pizza with macaroni salad a bit of each so that people have a variety to choose from. Large platter of cheese, cold cuts , fruits & dessert. This is the easy way out.|||MAC & CHEESE WOOD KNOK IT OUT ...
