Memorial Day Party Checklist

Memorial Day Party Checklist

If you’re like me, hosting parties is fun, but you get a little frazzled just beforehand.

Did I forget anyone? Did I forget anything? Do I have enough food?

All of these questions come tumbling down upon us if we don’t prepare well in advance.

And, well, I never seem to do that.

So here is a Memorial Day Party Checklist for those of us who need a little bit of help.

So many things to think of, but the beauty here is SOMEONE ELSE THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING!

I love it when that happens.

So whether you’re serving burgers or brisket or steaks or hot dogs, you can be sure your party is a success.

Check out that list here — and get checking!

With so many options, what’s a BBQ sauce lover to do?

Check out this guide to all things “sauce.” It’ll help put things into perspective.

I think not.

Happy Barbecue Month! And happy saucing!
