Decorations

Go with the season and put out some seasonal décor. This doesn’t have to be anything to extravagant. Some fun tablecloths and some small pumpkins and gourds can make for some fun decorations.

Hang String Lights

If your party will run into the evening hours, some string lights can keep the party alive. String lights can also set a cozy environment, so grab some blankets and get comfortable after getting your belly full.

Fire Pit

If the evening gets to chilly, have the fire pit ready. This is a great place for your guests to hang out and strike up a good conversation after the sun goes down.

Bring out the Bar Cart

Nothing goes better with some bbq meats than some cocktails. Preparing a rolling cart with your favorite drinks is a great way to keep the party outside. If you have beer or other drinks you need to keep cold, us a trough or wheelbarrow to keep the fall rustic theme.

The Main Course

Now that you have the stage prepared its time to get the menu planned. With your guests bringing the side dishes and desserts, wow them with some fantastic bbq. Below are a few easy bbq ideas for you.

• Burgers and Hotdogs – A backyard is wouldn’t be complete without some burgers and dogs. These are great for the young ones and the young at heart.
