Execute a potluck and make it look effortless when you choose a food genre in advance. This guides your dish choices, as well as adds a level of organization and order (in the best way) to your party.

Pick out the dish(es) that you know you want to provide to set the foundation for the meal. If there’s a main course, consider taking on the main meat or protein, pasta noodles, or pizza crust. This way if you know you want a certain flavor or seasoning to find its way into every meal, you get to make that happen.

Don’t overthink this one—in fact, maybe you have your potluck-ready crew set in your mind. Think about which of your friends would be a great mix to add in shared dishes and be reliable to bring what they are assigned. And excited about it too, of course. We love a cheerful cook contributor.

Since food sensitivities are common and vital to adhere to, be sure to set some guidelines for your guests bringing food (which ideally is everyone, in a potluck setting). Allergy notes are included in the Food Delegation Chart, so point those out to your guests.
If you have the place settings that you’ve been craving getting out for guests, no time like the potluck present! If you’d rather save the dishwashing and have your guests contribute to the supplying, make note of that as well.

Are you Host McClean yourself, or do you prefer to have your guests join in on this with you? This one isn’t imperative, since you can typically hope guests will organically assist with the clean-up post eating. Still, if you foresee a lot of set-up for a certain theme, some guests would prefer to offer their services rather than cooking and food prep time. So set-up and clean-up is a great replacement for food.

Potluck: The ultimate group bonding experience. Since gathering friends together is all about connection, we love how a potluck automatically weaves this into an atmosphere. Guests get to share what their secret tip was for making the best appetizer dip ever, how they got the supreme crunch in their salad, or what family tradition they used to make theirs happen. Potlucks are here to stay, and we’re happy with that.
