neighborhood cookout

Local grilling gathering

A neighborhood cookout is an informal outdoor gathering where residents of a local area come together to grill food and socialize.

These events typically happen in someone's backyard, a park, or a shared community space during warm weather.

The cookout serves as much for building community connections as for the food itself: The block association hosts a neighborhood cookout every Fourth of July.
