### 12\. [Spatchcock piri-piri chicken](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/spatchcock-piri-piri-chicken)
Level-up your barbecue game with a crowd-pleasing spatchcock chicken, flavoured with a chilli pepper marinade. Butterfly a whole chicken by removing the backbone to keep it juicy during grilling. We recommend serving with [buttery corn on the cob](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/buttery-baked-corn-cob) and a [wild rice salad](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/wild-rice-salad) for a full feast.

### 11\. [Spiced halloumi & pineapple burger with zingy slaw](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/spiced-halloumi-pineapple-burger-zingy-slaw)
These stacked halloumi burgers have been a big hit with our audience, particularly its summery combination of chipotle-spiced halloumi and juicy caramelised pineapple. Layered with a zesty slaw inside toasted buns, they make a fine addition to any barbecue spread and who knows, it may even convert the staunchest of meat-eaters.
Serve with these [barbecue sesame sweet potatoes](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/barbecue-sesame-sweet-potatoes) to make a flavourful veggie meal.
### 10\. [Classic homemade coleslaw](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/classic-homemade-coleslaw)
Coleslaw is a side dish staple for a reason, thanks to its wonderfully tangy flavour and crunchy texture. Our homemade version proves that making your own is just as good β if not better β and it's perfect for dolloping alongside burgers, salads and sandwiches. See how our community members have adapted this recipe in the comment section.
See our knockout [barbecue sides](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/barbecue-sides-recipes) for more inspiration.
### 9\. [Korean chilli, sesame & honey chicken](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/korean-chilli-sesame-honey-chicken)
A kebab always goes down well at a BBQ, and this Korean chicken with sweet, spicy and sticky glaze is our new favourite. Chicken thighs are a great budget-friendly option, and you'll probably have most of the ingredients already to hand.
For more ways with chicken thighs, see our collection of [chicken thigh recipes](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/chicken-thigh-recipes) as well as these [chicken thigh traybake recipes](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/chicken-thigh-traybake-recipes).

Drumsticks make a brilliant and affordable option for midweek meals as well as barbecues β see more ideas with our [chicken drumstick collection](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/chicken-drumstick-recipes).
### 7\. [Classic potato salad](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/classic-potato-salad)
Many would argue a barbecue is not complete without a steady supply of potato salad and we'd be inclined to agree. The classic combo of potato, mayo and herbs remains a firm favourite with our audience β make sure to check out the comments to see how community members have adapted the recipe.
We have plenty more [barbecue side recipes](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/barbecue-sides-recipes) to level up your spread, with staples such as [tangy cabbage coleslaw](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/tangy-cabbage-slaw) and [barbecued corn on the cob](https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chilli-butter-barbecued-corn).
