Beachside BBQs Are the Best!

If you like to BBQ one of the best things about Melbourne, Florida is that you can BBQ nearly the whole year ‘round. The weather is perfect and even if it’s cold, it’s only cold by Florida standards, not by anyone’s up north. You can still BBQ. And nothing beats a BBQ if you’re in a beachside community like this. Something about the ocean air and the beautiful weather makes it just the perfect environment for a relaxing day eating great food.

When you walk out of the sea air and into Charlie and Jake’s restaurant you will instantly be hit with the smells coming from our kitchen. When you smoke meat for hours the delicious smell permeates the air. You can’t even smell the saltwater over the tangy BBQ scent floating in from the kitchen. Not to mention the scrumptious aromas emanating from the plates of our customers. [Read more…] about Beachside BBQs Are the Best!

It does not matter where you grew up, you must have attended bonfires and BBQ parties throughout your childhood and teenage years. Let us just accept the fact that BBQ night outs have been one of the best times of our lives, and on that note, let us fire up the grill.

Why Should You Hire A Caterer?
Do you prefer a hands-on approach when it comes to BBQs? Or do you like to hire someone to do it?

You might be excellent at grilling, but when it is about making an event memorable and successful, its best that you hire a specialist catering company. Hosts usually have a lot of things at hand at the time of the event, including managing the invitees’ lists, greeting guests, and looking after the décor. With so many other things to take care of, you will probably never get the time to sit and enjoy with your guests if you do not seek catering help. Furthermore, it is a tiring job to buy the meat, marinate it, grill it, and serve it on your own.

Many catering companies provide BBQ catering services. However, you should consider choosing the one that offers an Alabama style of Barbeque to add an element of fun along with good taste. Better yet, choose your venue near the beach for it stimulates enthusiasm that naturally brings people closer.

Choosing the Menu
When you have so many options available, it is often difficult to make up your mind on the kind of menu that should be served. While options are many in this type of food, you must consider the environment, audiences, and the kind of event. In order to make it an unforgettable experience, do not pick out usual suspects when deciding on the food items.

Being the simplest form of BBQ, chicken is the most common and ordinary choice. Do you want to add more variety to your plate? Opt for the delicious pulled pork, juicy Turkey, or spicy sliced Beef. You can also choose sidelines such as BBQ baked beans, sweet potato chips, coleslaw, mustard potato salad, Turnip Greens, and Baked Potato for it complements the smoked food perfectly. With this type of menu, you are sure to be praised by your guests for your food selection.

Customize the Menu
If you are looking for an extraordinary set of food choices, have a meeting with a representative of the catering company. Due to their experience in the event organizing field, they will be able to give you detailed ideas that are beyond your expectations. Let the professionals do what they do best, and you can simply have the time of your life!
