I always bring ambrosia. All you have to do is open a few cans and the crowd loves it. You can FM me for the recipe.

my patented cherry raspberry pie (with homemade crust and whipped cream)

I share a lot of my personal recipes on this site, but that pie recipe is sacred...Chat Icon

But, any homemade pie would be great at a BBQ.... Be forewarned, however, making pies is not for a beginning baker.... it takes a little practice before it comes out perfectly.

how about a key lime pie? Very easy!

Key Lime Pie

Ingredients

* 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
* 3 cups sweetened condensed milk
* 1/2 cup sour cream
* 3/4 cup key lime juice
* 1 tablespoon grated lime zest

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. In a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, and lime rind. Mix well and pour into graham cracker crust.

3. Bake in preheated oven for 5 to 8 minutes, until tiny pinhole bubbles burst on the surface of pie. DO NOT BROWN! Chill pie thoroughly before serving. Garnish with lime slices and whipped cream if desired.

** I could not find key lime juice anywhere so I bought the lime juice that is sold in the mixed drink section in the grocery store

Some stores do sell it! I know I've seen it but of course when I need it for something it's no where to be found.

I don't know exactly what it's called, but dm24angel made an amazing banana pudding/nilla wafer trifle for her son's bday party. Tasted sooooo good! I can't wait to make it myself.
