Uncommon BBQ side dishes Thread

[HeHateMe]

Okay so we have obvious side dishes like cole slaw, baked beans, mac and potato salad but what are some things you like to have at least halve of the time when you have made some delicious BBQ like 30 minute ribs, 45 minute brisket or crock pot pulled pork?

I serve elotes (off the cob in a bowl) at least 80% of the time when I'm throwing down a Q

Also, deviled eggs a close second at 65% of the time.

Roasted beet salad comes in just above 50%

Bonus: do you consider tacos to be BBQ or nah

when I get tempted to make cornbread for a bbq I do hushpuppies instead (40% of the time)

I make a salad of sweet corn, avocado, red onions, and a balsamic. It seems to be a hit.

Please stop bbq trolling

I make the BBQ meat, so I leave side dishes up to my guests.... does that make me an asshole of a host?

I try to make sure someone is bringing the common hits... corn bread and/or jalapeno corn bread.... mac n cheese

As of yet no one has brought anything way outside the norm.

I blame @HeHateMe for never coming to my BBQs

I tip my cap, because deviled eggs are a pain to make.

I make a crab salad to change things up.

They are, but so worth the effort.

Jalapeno cream corn usually does pretty well and clogs arteries. Here's what you need.

1 Jalapeno
1 brick of cream cheese
1 2lb bag of corn
Salt and Peps
lil butter

Get your pan going, throw in a lil butter. Make it nice and melted. Throw in diced up jalapeno. Let it sizzle for couple mins. Now throw in (figuratively) the corn for a few min and combine. Reduce heat to low. Chop up your brick of cream cheese and add. Cover and let it melt. Stir it around every once and awhile until melted. Salt and Peps to taste. Some people like to double cheese it and once the cream cheese is melted, they top the dish off with shredded cheese.

I know you have elotes listed already, but I wanted to share with you anyways.

Sounds like something @brett05's pastor would not let him eat.

Why doesn't your wife need a watch? Because there is a clock on the stove.

I like some form of a potato side dish

Also many pasta side dishes work well

Lately been making cauliflower rice for myself and will be trying broccoli rice soon. I’m probably going to try a bunch of these new cauliflower and broccoli contraptions to eat healthier

Stir fry medley of veggies are really good

I see lots of interesting side dishes on YouTube I’ve always wanted to try but too damn lazy lol

We get requests from the hosts of the BBQ, in this order.

1. My roast veggie pasta salad.
2, My roast veggie plate.
3. Wife's deviled eggs.
4. My guac.

Veggies I roast for salad and plate: Mushrooms (whatever kind looks good) asparagus, zucchini, eggplant, garlic, red bell peppers, everything except the last 2 get marinated in something.

The guy doing the BBQ is putting hours into it, the least everyone else can do is make an effort.

Different variations of roasted corn on the cobs

Hot German Potato Salad. Grill off taters. Make a spinach salad with red onion, feta, and bacon. Add taters and toss in a warm bacon vin.

Quinoa, grilled shrimp, and grilled japs. Dice up japs toss in with quinoa, shrimp, cilantro, and lime.
