Ed. note: This post was originally published in June of 2019, but since COVID-19 hit, we have been cooking at home more than ever — we wanted to bring it out of the archives in hopes that it helps give you some inspiration for your grilling nights at home with your family ( and because sides are the best thing about cooking barbecue, right?!) Stay safe, everybody!
Here in Austin, “barbecue season” is a definite thing. However as a vegetarian, I’m usually left to fend for myself at poolside gatherings, either bringing my own veggie burgers or subsisting on coleslaw, fruit salad, and other barbecue sides.
I’m here to tell you that having some variety on the table will take your barbecue game to the next level, making all your guests extremely happy (not just us vegetarians, promise!)
From a charred broccoli salad, to grilled avocados, to a few elevated classics, your burgers are about to get a major run for their money as “most talked about food” at the party. Read on for all the barbecue sides we can’t wait to whip up this summer.

Found this link on pinterest for a roasted corn salad so I clicked on it. It leads to this website where I can’t even access the recipe. Pretty disappointed because it looked good.
