Hostess Gifts To Bring To An Outdoor BBQ

Summer is a perfect time to host a backyard barbeque! We both love to entertain outdoors in the summer. Nature makes for a lovely backdrop for your barbecue and everyone wants to enjoy the outdoors while the weather is tolerable! We say this over and over but we cannot believe August is here already! How did that happen?? In the Midwest our summers are so fleeting and we want to take advantage of this time to entertain!

Many of us are attending backyard barbecues and often bringing an appetizer or dessert or whatever the hostess might need. In addition to bringing food and wine we may also want to bring a special gift. Wine and flowers are always a nice choice but if you want to bring something else besides the norm we have some great ideas for you!

Hostess Gifts To Bring To An Outdoor BBQ

Gifts For The Kitchen

The simplicity and clean lines of these William Sonoma Salt and Pepper Mills would be a welcome gift that many hostesses would love to receive. Throw in the salt and pepper to round out the gift!

Love these red Staub Baking Dishes. A great gift for the hostess that likes to cook. These baking dishes are available in other colors too if you don’t feel red would work for the hostess. Staub dishes go from freezer to oven to table and can be used to make lasagna, casseroles and even desserts. They are also microwave and dishwasher safe too!

This set would be an appropriate gift for an outdoor BBQ! Featuring ketchup, mustard, mayo and relish containers with little spoons perfect for an outdoor barbecue.

For the family that likes to grill this is the gift for them! The Mini Rubs are some of William Sonomas most popular rubs and will add so much flavor to your grilled food. Get ready for the compliments!!

A set of different flavored olive oils is another idea we feel your hostess will really appreciate. Basil, Truffle, Blood Orange and Garlic infused olive oils are included in this set from William Sonoma.

Salt is one of Bev’s favorites!!! This set would be put to good use in her kitchen and a hostess gift she would love!

Nuts are some of Val’s favorites and there is not a chance that she doesn’t have a variety of nuts available for guests to munch on at a party. The Assorted Nut Gift Box is perfect for an outdoor BBQ!

Gifts For The Bar

This Wine Cooler can be monogrammed to make it even more extra special. It is crafted from polished marble but what really caught our eye was the scalloped edge!

This is the perfect gift to bring the hostess of your next outdoor barbecue. An Acrylic Monogrammed Ice Bucket with four stemless wine glasses! The ice bucket and the wine glasses can all be monogrammed to add that personal touch. All dishwasher safe too!

More pricier than our other ideas this is one pretty Party Bucket! It is ceramic and has pretty bamboo handles. When not in use it would look pretty displayed in your bar area too.

Other Hostess Gift Ideas

We both like the Hester & Cook paper runners, paper placemats and napkins. The Bamboo Placemat and the Cabbage Placemat are perfect for summer outdoor entertaining. It is so fun to create a beautiful table with their papers. This summer Val created her 4th of July tablescape with Hester & Cook papers. Take a look at the post here.

A pretty candle is always a wonderful gift. After the candle is burnt the Michael Arams Candles are so pretty you can keep the container and use it for something else.

The Sonos Cinder Tabletop Bowl is another idea that is really unique and different. You can use this bowl indoors because it is smokeless. It is also on sale!

A pretty Friendship Platter lets your friend know how you feel!!

We have had our eyes on these Bee Cheese Knives for awhile. They add a touch of whimsy to any cheese board! Take a look at our post “How To Make A Simple Charcuterie Board” if you are bringing an appetizer to the barbecue!
