Planning the perfect is easy. Just follow these fiveeasy steps towards creating a memorable barbeque.
1. Because good company is what makes or breaks a successfulbackyard make sure you organize your guests first. Sendout invitations or call as much in advance as you can toguarantee that the people you want to come will be able to come. 2. Choose a theme and decorate the backyard and your home tosuit that theme. Match tablecloths and napkins. Add candles andfresh flowers. A backyard needs a theme to induce a funmood amongst guests and to make it memorable. 3. Plan themenu. Check to see what your guests are bringing and cross thoseitems off your list. Make a list of what you need (don't forgetinsect repellent) and do all the shopping the day before so thatingredients are fresh and so that the morning of your backyardbarbeque can be dedicated to food preparation. Make sure youpurchase
the highest-quality meat products you can find. Andselect vegetables, such as corn, tomatoes, peppers andmushrooms. These vegetables are perfect accompaniments for abarbeque.
4. In the morning (or the night before) marinate the meat. Asimple marinade that includes soy sauce, sauce andgarlic is perfect. Stock your cooler with cold drinks.
5. By the time your guests arrive you should be dressed andready. Music should be playing to add ambience, salads and otherstarters should be laid out and ready, and the fire should bekindled.
