Barbecues are a popular way to enjoy outdoor meals with family and friends. The side dishes complement the main course of grilled meat, fish or poultry and provide the necessary variety. Some great side dishes to serve at a barbecue include potato salad, potato salad, pasta salad, fruit salad, corn on the cob, and grilled garlic bread.
Grilled Garlic Bread is a quick and easy alternative to a baked potato. No need to worry about fussing with all kinds of potato toppings or even utensils. Grilled garlic bread is an excellent “finger food” that accompanies any type of meat or fish and most people appreciate it. However, be especially careful not to burn the bread when grilling it.
The salads are great side dishes and there are many types to choose from. Never leave potato salad, potato salad, pasta salad, and anything with mayonnaise at room temperature for too long or you could give everyone barbecue food poisoning. Fruit salads are a good alternative to mayonnaise-based salads if they contain only fruit and no yogurt or other perishable products. These salads taste wonderful without adding anything as long as you use at least four different fruits.
A classic salad of grated carrots, pineapple and raisins makes one of the most colorful side dishes to serve at a barbecue and contains no mayonnaise or perishables. Just mix raw grated carrots with canned pineapple chunks and the pineapple juice along with some raisins. Soak the raisins before using them, so they’re tender rather than chewy, by placing them in a bowl of water and then discarding the liquid.
Corn on the cob is one of the most popular barbecue side dishes, especially with barbecued steak. You could also serve corn on the cob with barbecued salmon or many other grilled dishes. It’s a very messy food to eat, so it’s a great side dish to enjoy outdoors.
