5 BBQ ideas for your Halloween party
Halloween is a time when creativity is encouraged, and we are ready to help you get into the holiday spirit. Here are some scary food ideas for Halloween to make in gas grills, pellet grills and smokers.
Dead Man’s Chest
These slow-cooked ribs will surely be fun for your Halloween party, especially if you place a red pepper ‘heart’ in between them. Take a look at our maple smoked ribs recipe, or try a spicy version for Halloween.
Jack O’lantern Cheeseburgers
These Jack O’Lantern cheeseburgers are the perfect addition to the buffet table. The kids love the silly faces, and adding a little ‘blood’ (aka ketchup) makes these easy and delicious burgers fun for all. Grill your burgers and make your guests “design” their own cheddar cheese face.
Dead Man’s fingers
Here is another creative Halloween appetizer featuring lil’ smokies cut to look like fingers. The simplest way to transform sausages is to stand them right-side-up on the cutting board and, using a small, sharp knife slanted at a diagonal toward the sausage, shave about a 1/2″ worth of sausage away. This forms the fingernail. Then, lay the sausage flat and cut two slits directly under the nail and three slits on the opposite end from the fingernail. This creates the finger and knuckle creases.
Mozzarella and olive eyeballs
This is a 10-minute recipe that uses just four simple ingredients. Use green olives, black olives, tomato purée or barbecue sauce and mozzarella pearls. It’s perfect to serve as an appetizer and also ideal if you are grilling with your kids.
Mummy pizza
You don’t need a pizza oven to cook pizza! Do you know you can also cook pizza on a grill? For this creative BBQ recipe for Halloween, just assemble your pizzas by putting some tomato sauce on English muffins. You can sprinkle with dry oregano and simulate the mommy bandages with sliced mozzarella strips. For the eyes, use sliced black olives pitted. Grill until the cheese melts, and enjoy! You can also change the cheese for sliced grilled zucchini.
Is Halloween celebrated in Portugal?
First, Halloween wasn’t a holiday that was really celebrated in Portugal. These days, however, you’ll see posters across Lisbon, Porto, and other major cities advertising Halloween parties and special events for this holiday.
Depending on where you live in Portugal, you may even get a few trick-or-treaters knocking on your door as well.
Obviously, people in Portugal are simply copying what they see on television and in films and adopting those customs into Portuguese culture.
