Simple Memorial Day BBQ Ideas
Heading into the Holiday Weekend, here are some Memorial Day BBQ pairings and ideas.
Everyone loves a good Memorial Day BBQ. It’s a perfect time to get your friends, family, and neighbors together for a cookout. And, as always, BBQ tastes best when shared with good people.
Let The Grilled Jawn Family help you plan your menu with the recipes posted on our site from the last year. It’s time to lookout for the cookout.
BBQ Starters
Jalapeno Poppers
There’s nothing better than the taste of cheese filled bacon wrapped smoked jalapenos. This popper recipes is always a winner
Pollo Fundido Poblanos
I love, love, love Pollo Fundido. It’s such a throwback to my time in the Southwest and a crowd favorite.
Pig Shots
Pig shots are great for all occasions, but especially perfect for large get togethers and parties.
BBQ Sides
Cowboy Beans
Growing up baked beans were at every family BBQ and cookout. I love the Grilled Jawn spin on our family’s recipe. Check it out and make it your own.
Smoked Cauliflower & Cheese
Adding vegetables to the Memorial Day BBQ does not need to be boring. This pan of cheesy deliciousness is amazing with the perfect hint of smoke.
Mexican Street Corn
Elote, more commonly known as Mexican Street Corn is a great take on corn on the cob. When making Elote make sure you don’t skimp on the crema. It’s all about the crema! (TIP: Dust final product with Taco Uppercut for a knock out.)
Memorial Day BBQ Mains
Beef Ribs
I am finally coming around to the notion that Beef Ribs are the King Main of BBQ. Get a rack or two of Plate Ribs (Beef Short Ribs) and follow our directions for something so memorable people will keep requesting them.
3-2-1 Ribs
Everyone loves racks on racks on racks of ribs. We adopted Harry Soo’s 321 Rib Method and never looked back. Give it go!
Grilled Seafood
A full aluminum tin of Grilled Seafood, Potatoes, Corn and Sausage never let anyone down. This is a cook that is sure to impress anyone who comes to the house.
This is really just a start to the Memorial Day BBQ fun! There are countless combos of food you can make for your BBQ. For a complete archive of all the Grilled Jawn Recipes check out our Smoking & Grilling recipe section. Trust us, there is something there for everyone.
