As soon as school lets out, the grills start firing up, am I right? If there's one thing that goes well with summer time fun, it's backyard barbecues!
To help you plan your next summertime grill out, I thought I'd share a few of my favorite summer BBQ recipes by some of my blogging friends!

This Beer Can Chicken Recipe by Camille looks delicious, doesn't it?
I've heard of using beer in cooking but never like this! It's so easy, I think we'll try this the next time we have a BBQ!

BBQ Cola Chicken Recipe
Now, I've heard of using beer before, but never soda...until I ran across this BBQ Cola Chicken by Melanie!
Doesn't it look amazing?!
Melanie's BBQ Cola Chicken recipe makes for great leftovers, she's even included ideas for how to use the leftover chicken in other recipes! You can find more recipes from Melanie at Our Family World.

While this Apple Bourbon BBQ Ribs Recipe by Ronnie is a little more detailed than the previous two, the results are worth the extra steps!

The beer can chicken is amazing, be sure to season the outside of the chicken really well. Also a dark cola works really well, you can also do the chicken in the oven to it's just as good. YUMMY
