Summer in Montana means firing up the grill, gathering your favorite people, and soaking up the sun with something cold in one hand and something tasty in the other. And if you’re looking to take your backyard BBQ to the next level, we’ve got you covered—with some seriously fun and flavorful cannabis cookout ideas.
At Stink Blossom, your go-to dispensary in Billings, we love helping our customers bring cannabis into everyday moments in creative, safe, and delicious ways. So grab your apron, cue up the playlist, and get ready for our favorite THC edible recipes and infused BBQ ideas that will have everyone coming back for seconds.
Just remember: infused doesn’t have to mean over-the-top—a little goes a long way, and responsible dosing is always the key ingredient.
- Infused BBQ Sauce
This is the secret weapon for next-level ribs, grilled chicken, or pulled jackfruit sliders. You can start with your favorite store-bought or homemade sauce and mix in a THC-infused tincture to give it a subtle but fun kick.
Quick Recipe:
- 1 cup of BBQ sauce (smoky or sweet—it’s your call)
- 1–2 full droppers of THC tincture (start with a low dose)
- Mix well and heat gently to blend
- Brush on meat or veggies during the last few minutes of grilling
Stink Blossom Recommends: Look for our unflavored THC tinctures with milligram markers for easy dosing. Ask our team for this month’s best edible-friendly picks!
- Cannabis-Infused Lemonade
Hot day? Chill out with a refreshing cannabis lemonade that delivers a little sunshine in every sip. You can make it from scratch or stir in an infused lemonade mix.
Quick Recipe:
- Fresh-squeezed lemonade (or your favorite mix)
- THC-infused tincture or pre-made beverage enhancer
- Optional: muddled mint or sliced strawberries for flavor
Serve in mason jars over ice with a lemon wedge. And always label infused drinks clearly to avoid any mix-ups.
Bonus Tip: Make a batch of non-infused lemonade for guests who prefer to sip without the high.
- THC Fruit Skewers
Infused fruit skewers are sweet, juicy, and perfect for a sunny cookout. Use a THC-infused glaze or sugar to coat slices of pineapple, watermelon, mango, or strawberries.
Quick Recipe:
- Mix THC tincture into honey or agave (1–2 droppers per cup)
- Brush lightly over fruit slices
- Thread fruit onto skewers and chill in the fridge
Serve as a light dessert or snack—great for poolside nibbling or post-burger bliss.
- Infused Butter for Corn on the Cob
Nothing says summer like buttery corn straight off the grill. Make a small batch of cannabis butter by melting unsalted butter and mixing it with a low-dose THC tincture or using a pre-made infused butter.
Brush it on fresh corn, sprinkle with herbs or chili lime seasoning, and enjoy a mellow, flavorful side dish.
Important: Safe Dosing is Everything
Cannabis cookouts are meant to be fun and relaxing—not overwhelming. Here are a few simple tips to keep it all good:
- Always clearly label infused foods and drinks
- Start with low doses (5mg THC or less per serving)
- Offer non-infused options for guests
- Let everyone know what they’re eating
- Avoid mixing alcohol and cannabis too heavily
- Never drive after consuming THC products
