What are your top three non-negotiables for a successful barbecue? For me, it's simple: There's gotta be a ton of food, good company and yard games. Adam Minter is partial to cornhole: See his latest column on the summer's it-sport — but bocce, badminton or ladder golf are fun, too. For the menu, nothing beats beer can chicken — I've been meaning to try this Michelada-style one from Sara Tane that looks unreal — but any grilled meat will do.
