Memphis Wood Pellet Grills: Convenient Cooking for Your Crowd
If you love to entertain, you are intimately familiar with the need for a lot of cooking space. Feeding a crowd is an undertaking that requires space for preparation, cooking, and serving. Whether you’re inviting your closest friends over for a birthday celebration or the entire block for a Super Bowl party, a versatile and robust Memphis Grill is the perfect companion.
When cooking for a crowd, you need space to cook appetizers, sear mouth-watering steaks, roast all the fixings and more. A grill is one of the most convenient tools to have when it comes to cooking food in large volumes. A Memphis Grill takes it to a whole new level, however, as it can smoke, sear, bake, and roast, eliminating the need for multiple appliances and cooking surfaces. Throw in our optional grilling grates to provide even more cooking space.
3 Quick Tips for Preparing Food for Large Groups
Here are a few other tips you can use to make the most of your prep time when entertaining large groups.
- Go buffet-style: Serving individual plates is time- and space-consuming. Serve your guests buffet-style instead. Buffets are simpler to prepare and even easier to clean up.
- Choose menu items geared for the masses: Burgers and brats are favorites, then add casseroles and other sides you can prepare in bulk for easy serving.
- Prepare dishes ahead of time: Some dishes such as appetizers and cold salads can be prepared ahead of time. Preparing them the day before will alleviate some of the stress of prepping the day of your gathering.
