Memorial Day BBQ Ideas

BRIGHTON, Mich.- It's been coined the unofficial start of summer, and one popular way to celebrate the holiday is to host or attend a barbecue. With our unpredictable Michigan weather, we never know if we're going to be able to spend the day outdoors, but that doesn't mean we can't still whip up some festive treats. Spice up your weekend celebration with our Memorial Day BBQ Ideas!

You can't go wrong when you stick with red, white, and blue. Add some festive flair to your Memorial Day celebration by incorporating these signature colors into your decor, snacks, and dessert.

There are so many fresh red and blue fruits available this time of year, and you can make them easy for guests to enjoy by serving them in white cone. Plus, this doubles as a healthy refreshing treat that everyone will love!

For a snack with a little more crunch, chocolate covered pretzels are a festive and tasty option. All you need are pretzels, white chocolate, and your choice of sprinkles! Serving them up in a tall glass makes for a fun centerpiece too!
