There’s something about a backyard BBQ that just feels like summer. Burgers on the grill, kids running around, drinks getting warm way too fast, and a table slowly filling up with food as everyone arrives.
And while burgers and hot dogs usually get all the attention, I’m honestly there for the BBQ side dishes.
Give me potato salad, baked beans, pasta salad, corn on the cob, coleslaw and something sweet and fruity and I’m happy. Half the time, I think the sides are better than whatever is coming off the grill.
Whether you’re planning a Fourth of July cookout, Memorial Day BBQ, Labor Day party, family get-together or just grilling in the backyard on a random Saturday, there are so many easy sides you can serve.
I’ve rounded up a ton of BBQ side dish recipes, including the classics along with some different ideas for when you just cannot bring another bowl of regular potato salad.
What Are the Best Side Dishes for a BBQ?
The best cookout sides are usually the ones that are easy to make, easy to put on the table and easy for everyone to grab.
Some of the classics are classics for a reason:
- Potato salad
- Pasta salad
- Macaroni salad
- Coleslaw
- Baked beans
- Cornbread
- Corn on the cob
- Fruit salad
- Cucumber salad
- Mac and cheese
- Grilled vegetables
But you definitely don’t have to stick to the usual stuff.
Mexican street corn, fresh salsa, smashed potatoes, broccoli salad, couscous, cucumber salads and grilled vegetables are all really good with burgers, chicken, ribs, pulled pork and steak.
Easy BBQ Side Dishes for a Crowd
If I’m having people over, I don’t want to spend the whole BBQ in the kitchen.
And if someone else is hosting, I don’t want to show up with a recipe that needs six bowls, three sauces and 20 minutes of assembly once I get there.
Simple wins.
Pasta salad is always a good choice because it’s inexpensive, easy to double and there are about a million ways to make it. You can go with a traditional creamy pasta salad or make something a little different like dill pickle pasta salad, elote pasta salad, ranch pasta salad or a Mediterranean version.
Potato salad, baked beans, coleslaw and cornbread are also great when you’re feeding a lot of people without spending a fortune.

Make-Ahead BBQ Sides
Anything I can make before everyone shows up gets bonus points.
Pasta salad, potato salad, coleslaw, cucumber salad and a lot of fruit salads can be made ahead and kept cold until it’s time to eat.
Baked beans and casseroles can usually be prepped earlier too and warmed up right before serving.
One thing I have learned with summer parties is not to put every single thing out at once. If something has mayonnaise, dairy, meat or another ingredient that needs to stay cold, I’ll put out a smaller bowl and keep the rest in the refrigerator.
Then you can refill it as needed instead of letting a giant bowl sit outside baking in the Arizona sun.
👉For dessert, I’m also a huge fan of no-bake Fourth of July desserts because nobody wants to turn the oven on when it’s 110 degrees outside
BBQ Sides That Aren’t Potato Salad
I love potato salad. I really do.
But sometimes enough is enough.
If you want something different, try grilled zucchini, green beans, Mexican street corn, corn salad, salsa, broccoli salad, couscous salad, cucumber salad, smashed potatoes or a big crunchy chopped salad.
I especially like adding something fresh when everything else on the table is heavy.
If you’ve already got ribs, mac and cheese, baked beans and rolls, a fresh cucumber salad or corn salsa helps balance things out.
👉These sides would also be great with some of my favorite thick pork chop recipes, especially the grilled ones
What to Serve With Burgers and Hot Dogs
You really don’t need twelve side dishes for burgers and hot dogs.
Pick two or three and call it a day.
You could do pasta salad, baked beans and watermelon. Or potato salad, corn on the cob and coleslaw.
Add chips, pickles, sliced watermelon and burger toppings and you’ve got plenty of food without making yourself crazy.
What to Serve With BBQ Chicken
BBQ chicken is one of the easiest things to build a menu around because almost everything tastes good with it.
Cornbread, baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw, grilled corn, mac and cheese and fresh fruit are all easy choices.
If you want something lighter, add cucumber salad, grilled vegetables, corn salad or a simple green salad.
What to Serve With Ribs
With ribs, I usually want the classic cookout sides.
Think baked beans, mac and cheese, cornbread, potato salad, corn on the cob and pasta salad.
But ribs are rich and messy and saucy, so I also like having something cold and fresh on the table.
A crunchy slaw, fruit salad, cucumber salad or fresh corn salsa works really well.
How Many Side Dishes Do You Need for a BBQ?
For a small family BBQ, two or three sides are usually enough.
If you’re having a bigger cookout or potluck, you can add a few more because people tend to take a little of everything.
I like having some variety: something creamy, something fresh, something warm and maybe fruit.
And if someone asks, “What can I bring?”
Give them a side dish.
Seriously. Let people help.
