I am having a BBQ next weekend for a couple…and I am planning to make seekh kabab, chicken tikka and bihari kababs..question is, what else should I add to the menu?
Also, would half a kg of meat for each item be enough for 4 adults?
Re: BBQ menu
BURGERS! Whats a BBQ without burgers?!
And I dont think 1/2 kg of meat is enough. Its better to make more than be embarrassed later. Specially for chicken, ppl tend to eat more chicken.
I'm saying this because I went to a BBQ last weekend and there wasn't enough food for the guests, I think the hosts assumed ppl will just eat 1 of each item, but u have to realize that BBQ's are for meat, so u cant control how much people will eat.
My brother came home angry because he arrived 30 mins later than everyone at the dawat, and he Literally didn't get any food :s
Re: BBQ menu
for 4 adults use one kilo meat for each of those items. You cannot stop anybody from having more of one item than the other.
Re: BBQ menu
You gotta have burgers! A mix of American and desi foods is good....
I went to a bbQ this weekend too....there were chicken thighs, pieces of steak, burger patties and hot dogs..also some grilled peaches, and pineapple/onion skewers....
everything was good but I loved the burger patties the most.
Definitely get much more food.....nothing worse than running out of something....if theres any left over you can always give away or keep as leftovers.
*Unless you know for sure that every single one of the people coming is not a heavy eater.

half a kg of meat should be enough...bas saath main ek chit laga dena ke "doosron ke bhi pait ka khayal karein, kaam khayein warna apnay ghar ja ke araam karein" :D
Re: BBQ menu
You can have cold pasta dishes, salads, rice, grilled fruit and veggies.
I think you should estimate more per person rather than less - leftovers can always be given away and recycled the next day. I love day-after-BBQ.
