Mother's Day is a time to celebrate and honor our moms for all they've done for us, for their unwavering love, sacrifices, and endless support. It's a day to reflect on the countless ways they've shaped our lives, imparting wisdom, strength, and compassion. It's also a moment to gather around the table and savor the flavors of love that our moms have tirelessly cooked up for us throughout the years, filling our lives with warmth and deliciousness. We're grateful for every meal she's made; each bite is not just a taste of home but a memory of love and a testament to the special bond we share. 

What better way to return the favor and show Mom how much you care than by treating her to an unforgettable Mother's Day meal? Whether you prepare it yourself, have it catered, or treat her to her favorite local restaurant, here are five ways to show Mom how much you appreciate her on her special day. 

A BBQ Celebration for Mom

Does mom love good BBQ? Treat her to an irresistible platter of the best BBQ dishes – smokey pulled pork, succulent brisket, delicious baby back ribs, juicy smoked chicken, or andouille sausage. Pair your BBQ with traditional sides like potato salad, mac and cheese, or baked beans. Or grab some buns and cole slaw and make the perfect pulled pork sandwich. No time to labor over the grill all day? Order a la carte catering from BRQ Seafood and BBQ, and let us cook for you! 

The Perfect Charcuterie Board for Mother's Day

Simple and sophisticated, a charcuterie board is a great way to celebrate mom with small bites of all her favorites. These days, just about anything goes for curating charcuterie boards. You can go traditional with your favorite cured meats, flavorful cheeses, crackers, and fresh fruits. Get creative and whip up a board with breakfast favorites, like pancakes and waffles, or create a taco board complete with mom's favorite toppings, like beans, cheese, and salsa. A decadent dessert board filled with small samples of mom's most loved sweet treats could be a great way to round out your meal. Don't have time to make a beautifully arranged charcuterie board yourself? Let Bacon and Fig Events help you create a stunning display for mom's big day.

A South Louisiana Seafood Feast Just for Mom

We love our seafood in South Louisiana, so why not delight Mom with the best seafood our coastal waters offer? Grill redfish filets on the "half shell" with a rich BBQ butter sauce and fresh vegetables. Shuck fresh oysters and pop them on the grill for a delicious smokey twist. Fry up some catfish, shrimp, and oysters for the ultimate fried seafood platter, with hush puppies and French fries, of course. Or Boil up a batch of crawfish, shrimp, and crabs, complete with potatoes, corn, and garlic. Don't have a great outdoor space or pot to boil your own seafood? Host your private boil in the backyard at BRQ!

A Flavor-Packed Burger Feast for Mom

Who doesn't love a mouth-watering burger hot off the grill? A burger bar is a quick, easy, and delicious way to cater to everyone's tastes. Grill up burgers in a variety of ground meats—you can use beef, turkey, or pork—or try something a little more opulent, like wagyu beef, to really make Mom's mouth water. Include a variety of burger toppings, like cheese, onion, tomato, lettuce, bacon, and avocado, for a colorful and flavorful spread for your mom to enjoy. Don't forget the buns!
