The season of popsicles, swimming, sunscreen, the outdoors, and BBQs. Everyone has at least one BBQ over the summer. These are the best foods to have at a BBQ. The Top Ten 1. ## Burgers > I love backyard burgers, my dad's burgers, and my mom's burgers. I also love Five Guys burgers and even Burger King. You can put lots of stuff on a burger, like fries, cheese, and more. > Oh yeah! Burgers taste like heaven on a bun when grilled. There are lots of things to put on a burger, from lettuce to coleslaw to mustard to fries\! > Nothing like a hamburger on the grill. 2. ## Ribs > I notice that propane guy, Hank Hill, cooks the best ribs ever! Actually, that's just a cartoon, but it makes me hungry whoever cooks these ribs\! > Awesome BBQ food that cooks relatively quickly compared to bigger meats. > Ribs are great and filling, but again, they're not common. 3. ## Steak > Steak has to be the best. So juicy and tender (my favorite is medium-well). Right now, I can't stop drooling. > Steak is the second-best meat, but it's just not too common at a BBQ. 4. ## Hot Dogs  A hot dog is a cooked sausage that is usually grilled or steamed and served in a sliced bun. It is commonly enjoyed as a casual food item in the United States and many other countries. Typical toppings include mustard, ketchup, onions, relish, and sauerkraut. > Hot dogs are like the explanation for burgers, but they're not number one because they're less filling. > It looks so nice. My sister and I loved to eat barbecued hot dogs. 5. ## Coleslaw > Coleslaw actually makes cold vegetables taste good. Plus, it's one of the few times I like mayo. 6. ## Baked Beans > Baked beans are a classic side to a burger or hot dog. They're lower on the list because they give you gas. 7. ## Chips > Whether it's Doritos, Pringles, Lay's, or more, chips are a salty and great experience at an old-fashioned barbecue. 8. ## Sausages 9. ## Corn on the Cob  10. ## Chicken  The chicken is a type of domesticated fowl and a subspecies of the red junglefowl. It is one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, with a global population of more than 19 billion as of 2011. Chickens are kept primarily for their meat and eggs and are found in nearly every part of the world... *read more* 11. *?* ## Grilled Shrimp 12. *?* ## Pork Ribs 13. ## Kebabs 14. ## Fruit Salad > Seriously, this stuff rocks! Apples, whipped cream, Snickers, and a few other things make the best sweet mix ever\! 15. ## Pork Chops  16. ## Pulled Pork > Pulled pork and BBQ sauce are heaven. But again (sorry), they're not common. 17. ## French Fries  French fries are served hot, either soft or crispy, and are commonly eaten as part of lunch or dinner or as a snack on their own. They frequently appear on fast food menus around the world. In the United States, fries are usually salted and served with ketchup. In other countries, they are often... *read more* > French fries taste awesome with burgers. But like steak, they're not common. 18. ## Potato 19. ## Brisket > Central Texas style is my favorite. Keep it simple: salt and pepper, low and slow. Wrap in butcher paper at the thermal stall. It's like butter. > Some of the items on this list aren't BBQ. This is truly an iconic Texas dish. It just needs salt, pepper, and 12+ hours of low and slow oak action. > If you're ever in Texas and you like meat\! 20. ## Potato Salad 21. ## Pineapple 22. ## BBQ Chocolate Dips > This is the newest BBQ food item on the market, and it tastes fantastic. We had them at a BBQ recently, and the kids loved them. This product should be a definite must-have for any BBQ\! 23. ## Strawberries  24. ## Smoked Meat  25. ## Salads 26. ## Hot Links *P*Search List Featured Popular Latest [Top 10 Best New Year's Resolutions](https://www.thetoptens.com/lifestyle/new-years-resolutions/)[Top 10 Best Movies of 2025](https://www.thetoptens.com/movies/movies-2025/)[Top 10 Best Assignment Help Websites](https://www.thetoptens.com/assignment-help-websites/) [Best Cell Phone Services](https://www.thetoptens.com/best-cell-phone-services/) [Best Digital Camera Brands](https://www.thetoptens.com/best-digital-camera-brands/) [Best Home Workout Programs](https://www.thetoptens.com/exercise/best-home-workout-programs/) [Best Mountain Bike Brands](https://www.thetoptens.com/best-brands-mountain-bikes/) [Best Car Tire Brands](https://www.thetoptens.com/best-car-tire-brands/) ### More Food and Drink Lists [Top 10 Favorite Foods](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/favourite-foods/)[Top 10 Countries with the Best Food](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/countries-with-the-best-food/)[Top 10 Best Fruits of All Time](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/favorite-fruits/)[Top 10 Best Ice Cream Flavors](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/ice-cream-flavors/)[Top 10 Favorite Breakfast Cereals](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/cereals/)[Top 10 Best Chocolate Bars](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/greatest-chocolate-bars/)[Top 10 Best Pizza Toppings](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/favorite-pizza-toppings/)[Top 10 Best Types of Cheese](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-cheeses/)[Top 10 Best Vegetables](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-vegetables/)[Top 10 Best Pies](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-pies/)[Top 10 Best Chefs of All Time](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-chefs/)[Top 10 Best Soft Drinks (Soda Pops)](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-soda-flavors/)[Top 10 Countries with Best Chefs](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/countries-with-best-chefs/)[Top 10 Best Monster Energy Drink Flavors](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/best-monster-energy-drink-flavors/)[Top 10 Nuts](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/nuts/)[Top 10 Best Powerade Flavors](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/flavors-powerade/)[Top 10 Best Sandwiches From Subway](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/sandwiches-from-subway/)[Top 10 Best Pepsi Brand Sodas](https://www.thetoptens.com/food/pepsi-brand-sodas/) [Terms](https://www.thetoptens.com/terms) \| [Privacy](https://www.thetoptens.com/privacy) \| [Copyright](https://www.thetoptens.com/copyright) \| [FAQ](https://www.thetoptens.com/faq) ©2005-2026 TheTopTens® All rights reserved.
