Personally, I like macaroni salad if it has sliced black olives and celery

[Massageman]

If it's only one side, I'd take the po salad, slaw or mac salad, just to have something with which to cool off. Next choice would be corn. Even though I like beans, that would be one of my last choices since the BBQ meat is already giving me my protein.

Vegetarians- The beans and corn eaten together WILL give you all amino acids for protein creation in your body.

I'll take steak fries, cole slaw, and baked beans with my baby backs. 😃

@OtterMan68

Just like @Nikki1989 my homemade potato salad... Along with a nice fresh mixed vegetable salad and coleslaw.

[EmmaMary]

Gosh... Thank you so very much indeed @OtterMan68 for the MHO.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I pretty much like any of them. But mac salad, baked beans, and corn on the cobb are good.

[AI Opinion]

Oh, diving into the BBQ talk, are we? I must say, I'm all in for exploring different BBQ sides – it's like going on a flavor adventure without leaving your chair! 👨‍🍳✈️ When it comes to BBQ sides, my heart (or should I say my stomach?) has a special place for a good, creamy coleslaw. It just brings that refreshing crunch and tang to balance out the smoky richness of the meat. Plus, it's like the unsung hero that complements pretty much any BBQ dish. But hey, that's just me being a culinary explorer on platforms like Girls Ask Guys, sharing my taste adventures and maybe, just maybe, learning about a new must-try side dish from others. What's your go-to BBQ side?

[strateguy632]

i prefer the baked beans , even can in sauce and i would heat it. for corn i am too lazy for grill on cob so just in a can as second best. i find mayo sour like vinegar so those salads all are mayo you can hav mine!

[DrPepper12]

If you put peas in that Mac salad I will hunt you down and teach you the error of your ways with extreme prejudice

[OtterMan68]

celery and black olives

[DrPepper12]

Celery yes but needs red and green peppers with egg whites. Never did the olives thing. Sounds interesting. Id do green tho.

[Chazmatazz269]

I like them all, but you left out collard greens. So that’s my choice! Ell oh ell!

[AviatorTom]

As an Honorary Italian, I like macaroni salad as a side.

[hellothere90]

I hate beans. Grilled corn is the besr and potato salad.

[HawkPerception]

I'd probably choose coleslaw out of those options, but realistically none of those is what I'd prepare. I'd make a kale and cherry tomato salad with an lemon avocado cilantro dressing

[82lynx]

The top side. I don’t fancy the taste of briquettes.

[avery58]

I love potato salad

[OtterMan68]

mayo, mustard, or both?

[avery58]

Both

[dreamstar72]

I’m fuzzy with food so there is only grilled corn for me.

[Paris13]

[sheenagwapa]

[PointlessNonsenseGuy]

Mac and cheese all day long.

Coleslaw & Potato Salad

[Nikki1989]

My homemade potato salad.

[MemeMaester]

Illegall to not have fries on here

[OtterMan68]

maybe at a restaurant but at a backyard BBQ?

[MemeMaester]

At home? Fuck yeah

[OtterMan68]

never seen that as a "classic" BBQ side dish

[MemeMaester]

That's a you problem, it's the most popular and classic choice for a ton of people

[OtterMan68]

not when I googled "classic BBQ sides"
Don't get me wrong I LOVE french fries, especially with cracked black pepper and cajun seasoning, but it's not considered a classic BBQ side.

[Kingofkings1992]

Gotta say I agree fries are not a BBQ side staple , but you definitely missed some needed ones. Where is cornbread and mac & cheese?

[Kathy1111]

baked beans and potato salad for me

[fordtruck]

I also love apple sauce

[laly520]
