The Labor Day cookout mistakes hosts keep making, and the one fix more people are catching onto
Labor Day cookouts often make hosts feel like short-order cooks due to the effort involved.
A survey by grocery app Flashfood found that 53% of Americans worry about the rising cost of hosting summer gatherings, with 85% expecting these cookouts to be more expensive than last year.
To ease the burden, 34% of hosts now ask guests to bring a dish instead of preparing all the food themselves.
Hosts commonly buy extra food for unexpected guests, but a recommended solution is to ask guests to bring their own drinks, similar to how desserts are often handled.
