There are so many fantastic vegan BBQ recipes on this list, but if I had to choose my ideal menu, this is what it would look like: To drink, I would most likely have a bottle of white wine or rosé. But for those don’t drink, I’d also include some blackberry lemonade. Because some guests are already hungry when they arrive, I like to prep some dips ahead of time. Homemade hummus is a fantastic option – it’s way better than the store bought stuff and my recipe makes a big batch. I like to have a carb-y side like pasta salad, and something meaty for the main course like these tofu skewers. And for dessert, brown butter peach cobbler is always a crowdpleaser. But if I’m busy, I might throw together an easy fruit salad, or maybe some pineapple skewers, if I’m short on time.

Drinks

Quality beverages are an essential part of a good vegan BBQ. While you could always serve beer, wine, or soda, I recommend making a big batch of one of these drinks. Trust me, your guests will thank you.

Appetizers

It can take a little while for a grill to preheat, so it pays to have some snacks for your guests to nibble on in the meantime. Most of these appetizers can be made ahead. And I also have a separate round-up of terrific vegan dips if you’re looking to put together more of a mezze platter for your guests.

Salads & Sides

Sides can sometime be the best part of a BBQ, and these are no exception. As with the appetizers, most of these can be made ahead.

Main Dishes

When it comes to a BBQ, main dishes are the stars of the show. Many of these recipes can be made on the grill or on the stovetop.

Desserts

No BBQ is complete without a great dessert. While fresh fruit is always a good option, if you want to throw a memorable BBQ, make one of these dishes. Your guests will be talking about your hosting skills all summer long. And as a bonus, here’s the vegan BBQ recipe I bring to every omnivore BBQ. It’s easy to make ahead and so delicious. Okay, that’s it for my favorite vegan BBQ recipes. If you made any of these, be sure to let me know in the comments. Happy grilling!
