the best sides to pair with great bbq

A great BBQ meal is about more than just what comes off the pit. The right side dish can completely change the plate, balance out smoky and savory flavors, and turn a simple meal into something you really look forward to.

At Bozo’s Hot Pit Bar-B-Q, we know everybody has their favorite combination, which is why we offer plenty of side options to help you build your meal exactly the way you like it.

Classic BBQ Sides That Never Miss

Some pairings just make sense.

Our baked beans are a natural fit with BBQ, bringing a little sweetness and heartiness to the plate. Sweet slaw adds a cool, crisp contrast to smoky meat, while potato salad is one of those classic BBQ sides that always feels right beside a sandwich, ribs, or a plate of pulled pork.

For something warm and comforting, mashed potatoes and green beans are both great choices, especially if you want your BBQ meal to feel a little more like a full Southern supper.

For the Fry Lovers

If you believe BBQ and fries belong together, we have you covered.

Choose from our classic French fries, flavorful seasoned fries, or go all in with a basket of onion rings. These are especially good alongside BBQ sandwiches, burgers, or chicken tenders when you want something crispy on the side.

Hearty Options for a Bigger Appetite

Sometimes a regular side just is not enough.

A baked potato is a great way to make your meal more filling, while our BBQ potato takes things even further and turns the potato into part of the main event.

We also offer chili and seasonal soups, which can be especially good when the weather cools down and you want something warm and satisfying to go with your meal.

A Few Different Options, Too

Not every side has to be traditional BBQ fare.

Cottage cheese is a lighter, cool option that pairs surprisingly well with a hearty plate, and chicken tenders are always a favorite for anyone who wants a little variety at the table or has a family member who may not be in the mood for BBQ.

That is one of the best things about eating at Bozo’s: everybody at the table can put together a meal they are happy with.

Don’t Forget Dessert

Of course, no BBQ meal is truly complete without something sweet at the end.

Bozo’s offers a variety of house-made desserts that make the perfect finish to a great meal. Whether you are stopping in for lunch, bringing the family for dinner, or making Bozo’s part of a weekend tradition, save a little room for dessert.

Build Your Perfect Plate

There is no one right way to enjoy BBQ.

Maybe your perfect plate is BBQ with baked beans and slaw. Maybe it is a sandwich with seasoned fries and onion rings. Maybe you want mashed potatoes, green beans, and dessert afterward.

However you like it, we have plenty of sides to help make your meal complete.

Come see us at Bozo’s Hot Pit Bar-B-Q and build your perfect plate with your favorite BBQ, sides, and a little something sweet to finish it off.
