[My Perfect BBQ: Written By Marissa]

When it’s steamy out, you’re covered in bug spray, your best friends are sipping beers on your deck, the grill flame is getting high and that plate of hot dogs is looking mighty delicious - the only other element you can add to the equation to create perfection is a great playlist. I don’t know about you, but for me, summer music is all about classic hits that remind me of driving to the beach when I was little. (Summer is not the time to be listening to obscure, deeply lyrical indie rock. Just saying.) So here’s my perfect  BBQ, complete with menu and playlist. Now get that grill going!
