Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day - they are all obvious choices for bbq picnics. If your climate cooperates, think outside the box and host a
Boo BQ this Halloween! Your friends and kids will love a Halloween BBQ and the smoke from the grill is a perfect spooky addition to any October bash. These tips will ensure that your Boo BQ rises above the typical ghostly or ghastly bobbing-for-apples costume party...
Halloween BBQ Tips for a Spooktacular Party
1. Gory BBQ Spread
Halloween BBQs are not for the squeamish. Fire up some ribs and sausages and then offer them up on a carnivorous spread, such as this one from

2. Pumpkin Cooler
This is a brilliant Halloween BBQ idea from
thekitchn.com: A pumpkin cooler for your Halloween BBQ. Fill it with root beer and orange soda to incorporate the drinks into your color theme.
3. Candlelight
Set up a table inside, in addition to your patio or
Angara grill table, so fancy and fragile people can get out of the nippy October air. Use clear bottles as candlestick holders for tall candles that lend an eerie feel to the place.
