When summertime finally rolls around, nothing is more fun than the combo of good food, good music, and good company.

"One of my favorite dishes to eat at a BBQ would have to be the BBQ ribs of course," says Narf. "I feel like that's one of the main things that attracts me to going to a BBQ initially because ribs from straight off the grill, grilled by one of your friends and/or family members is something that you don't come by often."
All of this would be soundtracked by Montell Jordan's "This Is How We Do It," Narf's recommended BBQ beat. "I would even put that on at a BBQ today because it just reminds me of being at a family BBQ when I was little, and it's still a good fun song that pretty much everyone knows," she adds.
