Backyard BBQ Essentials

The backyard is always ready for a summer party, especially with a grand table that fits up to 10 guests. Pottery Barn has numerous extendable dining sets that seat six when closed, but then expand seat up to 10 guests. Many of our tables are crafted of FSC–certified, moisture–resistant eucalyptus and stained with long–wearing polyurethane that keeps them beautiful and allows you to host parties for years to come.

To top the table, we have accessories and dishware designed for beer flights and sausage grilling. Mini beer mugs are perfect for a few sips of new brews. Vintage wood pairs beautifully with natural, unpolished dining accessories to fit all your serving needs. Rustic wood platters, trays, bowls and condiment sets bring hardy cowboy style to picnics and barbecues. Complement the ensemble with a beer tasting flight set with four small glasses, a wood tray with metal labels, a snack area and a discard bowl.

For eating, forget flimsy paper plates and simply bring out the everyday white dinnerware from your kitchen cupboards. Generously-sized pieces made of high–quality porcelain can give even casual parties a sense of elegance. Don’t forget to add color to the whites and woods of the table with pure cotton flag linens in sun–washed hues and star linens in red and blue.
