Here’s how to host a “no fail” barbecue! I throw an annual “Babs BBQ” and these are the tricks I use to make it EASY! #Ad #SaucySpoon

~ Make a “hot box”. Line a cooler with newspaper or brown paper bags. Get some bricks at your local big box store, wrap them in foil, and put them on the grill. Take your bricks hot off the grill and place them in the cooler, put foil wrapped grilled burgers or hot dogs on top, close the cooler. The food will stay warm for hours. 

~ Turn the traditional baked bean side into a crave-worthy appetizer! 
I’m partnering with @saucyspoonbeans for this recipe and using the Jalapeño and Bourbon flavor,  it’ll take this dip over the top!  

✨Babs Baked Bean Dip ✨Take a cast iron skillet, spread 8 oz softened cream cheese on the bottom, take one can of  Saucy Spoon baked beans (28 oz) , pour that on top, then add  shredded cheese (I used a mix of cheddar and Monterey Jack) at least 2 cups and pop in the over 350 degrees until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Top with scallions and serve with tortilla chips! People will rave!

~ Finally, don’t make your guests fiddle with jars and bottles. Put all your condiments in a muffin tin - it saves space on the table and guests can spoon or spread whatever condiment they like onto their burgers and hot dogs so easily.
It never fails! #bbq
