Labor Day BBQ party Tips

Grilling BBQ

Party Rentals Miami likes to enjoy holidays like most businesses, for example, by having a Labor Day BBQ party with our employees. Don’t worry, we’re still open, but Labor Day seems to be a fun and sad holiday. Why? It’s the last summer holiday until you start preparing for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s.

So, it’s fun because you spend the day with family and friends enjoying a safe cookout. If you wish to have a barbecue party with your family, safety should be your priority. Consider these party rentals in Miami for hosting a fun and safe summer BBQ celebration.

Rent Chairs and Tables for a Labor Day BBQ Party

Renting tables and chairs is a party necessity; you’ll find them in every size, shape, and style imaginable. Also, you’ll be able to work out placements for your tables and chairs and help get the most out of your area. Usually, unless your party site is your backyard or inside, you’ll need delivery, but that’s simple for most party rental companies.

Now, party rentals can easily transport 30 chairs and 4 plastic tables with you to the picnic, as the items don’t take up too much space. During Labor Day weekend, remember to count your things before leaving, especially when your party is not at home. People are having fun socializing and might leave some items behind as you vacate.

Plan on the Amount of Meat you’ll need and Marinate It

Focusing on how much meat you will need is essential. A hamburger, a sausage, and a chicken leg for every person is a high starting point. The leftovers result in a great memory for your guest. Especially for someone tired of cereal for breakfast.

Now, burger meat and fish can spoil if left out, so keep that in mind before taking them out of the fridge, although chicken, steak, and chops do well in humidity. Handheld buns for sausages and burgers are a terrific idea for children. So cut the meats so that the children can consume little bites.

Prepare the meat well in advance. By injecting the food, you add some flavor to your cookout. Marinating keeps the food delicious and ready to go. Shake off the excess soaking before the meat hits the grill, mostly if it includes oils and any excess sauce. The meat is much more inclined to burn or flare, causing that bitter flavor that people don’t like.

What is The Timing of Cold Meat?

Taking fish or meat from the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes allows it to reduce its chill and return the meat to room temperature. Unless it’s in the top fridge, you’ll need more time, as it’s practical, like a rock.

If the cold meat strikes the grill, it won’t cook well, especially inside. It is significant with sausages, poultry, and some pork. Usually, ensure your meat is well-cooked, as it’s not a good idea to serve rare beef unless asked.

Do not leave food outside for too long, as it may spoil without your noticing and make people sick.

Selecting your Charcoal for a Labor Day Party

The charcoal option is essential if you’re cooking a vast selection of meat. Lump charcoal is light and fast (cooking time of about one hour). Briquettes, on the other hand, could burn at a constant temperature for about 3 hours, making them suitable for grilling joints.

Also, unique tastes can be infused with the charcoal you use.  For instance, charcoal made from oak can release subtle, smoky caramel tones. In contrast, orange wood gives a deep marmalade flavor that goes well on duck, chicken, turkey, and practically all poultry.

Labor Day BBQ Party Safety Tips

Many fire-extinguishers for Labor Day BBQ safety

  • Use charcoal or gas grills outside.
  • Don’t put your barbecue near the deck rail, house, or beneath hanging tree branches; put your grill away from things that may catch fire.
  • Have a bucket of water close by or an extinguisher.
  • Educate your kids on grill safety. Telling them not to run mainly around or close to a grill and instructing them not to touch a hot grill.
  • Never leave your BBQ grill unattended. A responsible adult should stay close to the rack while it is on.
  • Let somebody who knows how to use the grid use it, especially propane gas.
  • Don’t leave the meat outside for a long time, as it might spoil and get someone sick.

Bounce House Rentals are Perfect for Labor Day BBQ Parties

If you expect many children, consider renting a water slide or bounce house to entertain them. Kids like jumping, but it’s best to do it safely inside a bouncer. You can rent a small bounce house for $100 or a bouncer combo with a slide for $250 or more for a significant get-together.

If you are low on cash, party rental packages can help because they bring all the items you need to throw your outdoor BBQ, like a tent, chairs, tables, bouncers, and even a propane grill.
