Do you prefer to host the cookout or be the guest of someone else?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byI love to host the cookouts myself!
kiwisoutback says:
I'd like to think I make the best burger for me, so I'd say I like hosting it, though it's good to not have to worry about the mess to clean up.
Posted April 28, 2009
Susan52 says:
Actually, either way is good. Potluck is always a good idea for a big BBQ, but I don't mind hosting.
Posted April 23, 2009
I prefer to attend other cookouts
JaguarJulie says:
If you asked my hubby, he'd say host while we have a BBQing friend Todd Sander that can't be beat -- so I'd rather attend HIS cookout! I tried to get him to take a position as the Lowe's backyard grilling guy in the Southeast.
