It’s almost Autostraddle’s own Babe-B-Q weekend! We’ll be hanging out with each other August 15 and 16 to grill up a storm, and everyone’s invited! We’ll also be guiding you through the process of grilling up said storm and getting prepared for the big event all week. You can view all Babe-B-Q posts here.
It’s almost time, y’all! Pretty soon you’ll all be gathered ’round the flames of some variation of a grill situation chowing down on some veggie burgers and literally basking in the glow of one another’s faces, and I for one and psyched as fuck about it. In honor of the occasion, I have put together a playlist that spans genres but never stops screaming “BBQ, Y’ALL!” Which is key, I think.
