what to bring to a BBQ?

this is what people are already bringing:

hamburgers, hot dogs, buns, sausage, kielbasa, baked beans, beer
all paper goods, etc..

potato salad, smores bars, beer

fruit platter, beer

cookies

tri-colored pasta salad and spinach dip


what should I bring? Any suggestions?

eta: not feeling mac salad or cole slaw - so is there anything else that's neat (as in fun)?

eta again: someone suggested something to me last year - booze-soaked watermelon or something? Anyone have that recipe?

Take the watermelon and make a hole. Tunnel a little into it and start pouring in coconut rum or vodka. Do it slowly - let it settle and soak and pour more in. You will probably get about 2 cups in. Let it soak.. that's about all she wrote!

You can also soak Maraschino cherries in Everclear for a few days.. that's DELICIOUS.

As to other things - Buffalo Chicken Dip is usually a pretty big hit. Stromboli goes over pretty big if you have an oven to heat it in once you are there. Sometimes I will just ORDER a big platter of fried chicken from S&S and bring that. It's like $50 for a ton of chicken and it's really good!

Good luck!
