Spring BBQ Kickoff – Easy Ideas for Outdoor Hangouts

Spring in Maryland means longer days, warmer weather, and finally getting outside after months of cold. The sun’s showing up, everything’s turning green again, and it’s time to shake off winter and get back to what really matters—good food and time with friends.

And what better way to celebrate the change of season than with BBQ? Whether you’re catching up in the backyard, heading to the park, or out for a boat ride, it’s the perfect time to fire things up (or let us do it for you). Here are a few easy ways to bring BBQ into your spring plans.

Backyard BBQ Kickoff

Tailgate season might be months away, but there’s no reason to wait for football to get your BBQ fix. One of the easiest ways to enjoy the season is by throwing a laid-back BBQ right in your backyard.

Pull out the lawn chairs, give the patio a quick clean, and maybe freshen things up with a few new plants. Once the space is ready, just pick a day and invite your crew.

And when it comes to the food? No need to man the grill all afternoon. Call ahead and grab pulled pork, ribs, wings, and all the fixings from Chad’s BBQ. We’ll handle the cooking so you can actually enjoy the party.

Picnic at the Park

Not working with a backyard—or dealing with muddy spring ground? No problem. A local park is a great way to enjoy the outdoors without the cleanup.

Find a spot with picnic tables, maybe a playground for the kids, and you’re set. Pick up your BBQ on the way, get there early to claim a table, and enjoy a no-fuss spring get-together. No grill-hauling required.

Spring Planting Party

If your idea of spring fun involves getting your hands dirty, why not make an event out of it? Host a planting party and turn garden chores into a group hang.

Invite friends, family, or neighbors to help plant veggies, flowers, or whatever you’ve got planned for the season. Then feed your hardworking crew with pulled pork sandwiches, smoked chicken, and a few classic sides. It’s a win-win: you get help in the yard, and everyone gets fed.

A Day on the Water

Even if the water’s still chilly, boating season waits for no one. Whether you’re out for fishing, floating, or hitting a hidden beach, don’t forget the food.

Call ahead and pack your cooler with wings, sandwiches, cornbread, and coleslaw—easy to eat, totally satisfying, and way better than a soggy PB&J. Let Chad’s fuel your day out on the Bay.

Ready to Get the Spring BBQ Party Started?

Let’s face it—everyone’s spent enough time indoors. Spring is your chance to reconnect with people and shake off that cabin fever. Getting outside can boost your mood, ease stress, and help you unplug. Add BBQ to the mix and you’ve got a reason for everyone to show up. Good food, good weather, and good people—it doesn’t get much better than that.

Don’t let food prep and cleanup eat into your spring plans. Whether you’re hosting at home, picnicking at the park, or heading out on the water, Chad’s BBQ makes it easy to bring the flavor. With easy pick-up and catering options, you can get everything from slow-smoked ribs and pulled pork to wings, chicken, and all the sides. So go ahead—plan the hangout. We’ve got the food handled.
