There’s nothing that smells quite like summer more than a backyard barbecue. You know those grand barbecues – the one’s you can smell through the whole neighborhood. This feel-good summer fun is usually accompanied by some music and laughter. Backyard barbecues are a summer classic, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for a few new twists on the old tradition.
Keep It Small
There are 3-4 big barbecue occasions each summer: Labor Day, Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and maybe a couple graduation parties. You usually invite all of your friends and extended family for one big party. But who says a big crowd is necessary for a good time? Try having a barbecue for just your household with all of the same elements: a special playlist, tons of lawn games, and all of your favorite barbecue dishes. You’ll create special memories, get in some quality time, and maybe even form a new family tradition!
Elevate the Classics with a Smoker
You know when you walk outside and immediately know someone in your neighborhood is cooking something good? Blame a smoker! Maybe the twist you’re looking for is for your food. Try smoking your classic barbecue meats instead of grilling them this summer. Need a grill that can also smoke? Take the leap on a Kamado Joe grill and elevate your menu! Call us today to find your best fit.
Celebrate the Little Things
Holidays and milestone celebrations are an obvious fit for a backyard barbecue, but why not create the opportunity yourself? Celebrate the little things this summer. Did you complete a big project at work? Great! Celebrate with a barbecue. Your family made it through a really tough and stressful season in life? Celebrate! Every one of your kids cleaned their room this week? CELEBRATE. No matter how insignificant these moments may seem, use them to bring the family together and enjoy a backyard barbecue! Keep it simple or go all out with a theme and decorations. There’s no reason to limit your barbecues to special occasions only!
Summers are the perfect time to try new things and put a twist on classic memories! We’d love to help you achieve those moments. Give us a call today to explore our grill selection and make it a summer to remember!
