I'm in the process of planning DS first birthday party. It will be on a Sunday afternoon so I was originally planning on having sandwiches and such. I've also toyed w the idea of island/jungle themed tailgating type foods (sweet and sour meatballs w pineapple, teriyaki chicken wings...). I just found out that DH is being given half a cow as a thank you gift - we live in beef country - so now I'm thinking I should use that. I was thinking either steak skewers w pineapple and veggies -or- a steak fajita buffet. Husb thinks just steaks, but w the others they can be cooked an hour or two before and keep better than steaks.
Which do would you enjoy at a party more:
Steak skewers Steak Fajita Buffet Steaks (more work making to order) Hamburgers

I like the skewers or fajita options. For a party I prefer things that are easily balanced on a plate in my hand or lap, and steaks don't seem like they would fit the bill. Skewers or fajitas give your guests the ability to choose what they like too.
