BBQ Recipes for a Pool Party

Finding the best BBQ recipes for a pool party can be as exciting as it is challenging. Indeed, no matter how much we love barbeque pulled pork, there are only so many times we will be excited to see it at a barbeque. That said, the following is a list of unique barbecue recipes that are great for a pool party.

Skillet Spinach-Artichoke Dip With Fire-Roasted Bread

When you think of barbecue, odds are, spinach-artichoke dip is the last thing you think about. Nevertheless, this recipe is one that is bound to impress your guests. Using your favorite spinach-artichoke recipe, you simply combine the ingredients, transfer them to a cast-iron skillet and cover it with aluminum foil. You will then place the skillet in indirect heat and cook for 10 minutes. You will then remove the foil, rotate the skillet, and cook in indirect heat for another 18 to 20 minutes. From there, you will grab a loaf of country bread, drizzle pieces with olive oil, and cook them for 20 to 30 seconds. This will make a great appetizer for your barbecue!

Shrimp Barbecue Grilled Skewers

Another great recipe is the grilled skewer. These can be made with any type of meat and/or vegetables you wish. For instance, grilled tequila-lime shrimp skewers are a fun recipe. To create these, you simply add one pound of shrimp, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 2 tablespoons of tequila, 1/4 cup of olive oil, and season with ground cumin, garlic salt, ground black pepper, and refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours before grilling. From there, you will discard the excess marinade and place 5-6 shrimp on each skewer (remember to soak them in water to prevent them from burning). Lastly, you will lightly oil the grill grate and place it around 4 inches from the heat source. Lastly, you need to simply grill them on medium/high heat and cook them for 5 to 7 minutes.

Sweet Tea Barbecue Chicken

Since barbecue chicken is such as barbecue staple, you may not want to exclude this beloved dish. However, it would be best to try a different type of recipe to make your barbecue chicken the talk of the town. For instance, sweet tea barbecue chicken is a fun twist on this classic food. To create it, you simply make the sauce out of unsweetened apple juice, water, chicken broth, barbecue sauce, sweet tea, seafood seasoning, paprika, coarsely ground pepper, and garlic powder. From there, you simply rub the sauce over the chicken and cook it in the oven or cook the chicken on the grill and add the sauce once it is close to being cooked.

Overall, there are plenty of barbecue recipes that you have likely not even considered. Nevertheless, this list is a great starting point if you are looking to get a tad more adventurous as it pertains to your barbecuing. Either way, to have a fun barbecue or pool party, all you need is good food, some fun pool accessories, unique, festive decorations, and some great people. Hopefully, this shortlist will get you thinking out of the box for your menu and it will help you continue to experiment with new recipes for many years to come.
