How To Throw An Impromtu 4th of July BBQ

Are you having a 4th of July party? Did you start planning weeks ago? If so, good for you! That is certainly the best course of action in order to have the best barbeque on the block! But, if you're like me, you really just started planning a party yesterday. I have some tips on how to throw a fabulous last minute barbeque that will have people thinking you spent weeks doing all the planning!

Great ideas for grilling/setting up a buffet menu - go for simple ideas with great quality! There is an abundance of fresh produce right now! Take advantage of it! Hit up a farmer's market, or just go to the produce section at the grocery store.

Or, have it be a potluck where each of your guests should be a dish to pass, whether it is for the grill, a side dish, dessert or beer and cocktails!

You don't have to go for all the expensive table accessories! Find patriotic themed items at your local grocery store, or a retail chain like Walmart or Target! Follow this guide to set up a table for cheap!

Make dessert yourself! Grab fresh fruit like blueberries and strawberries, and whipped cream and come up with something fabulous! Or follow this awesome trifle recipe!


Happy 4th of July, everyone! I hope you have a wonderful day spent with family and friends! Stay safe!
