By  Dr. Joy Lasseter

It is easy to create a party atmosphere. Try these tips for your BBQ gathering!

Plan to have your event outdoors in your yard, or on your deck or patio.

Arrange the seating close to small side tables for holding a drink or plate.

Set up small, half circle groupings for conversation.

Go western with red checkered tablecloths and napkins.

Create table bouquets with daisies, sunflowers or wildflowers in mason jars or old pitchers.

String small bulb, white lights up around your patio to create ambiance.

Ask your guests to dress in Western attire.

Have western music playing in the background.

 

Menu Suggestions:

BBQ chicken, beef or pork

Grilled vegetables

Corn on the cob

Baked potatoes

Cornbread or sourdough biscuits

Cowboy bean chili (crockpot)

Iced tea and beer

2 gallon or larger water dispenser with sliced cukes and crushed mint

Enjoy this delicious summer treat!
