Miami Beach’s new oceanfront lifestyle hotel, The Confidante (aka: Thompson Miami Beach), is launching its summertime Backyard BBQ monthly series with The Backyard Bayou Boil on Sunday, June 12 from 12 p.m. until 4 p.m. The pool party BBQ series will be hosted in the hotel’s colorful backyard area, inclusive of a lush tropical garden, colorful poolside cabanas and bungalows, and two heated pools. The series will run through September and is open to the public.

To kick off the BBQ series, The Backyard Bayou Boil will be $30 per person and inclusive of a classic low country boil bowl (prawn shrimp, Andouille sausage, corn and potatoes), decadent and zesty jalapeño cheddar cornbread, and one beer or a glass of Louisiana Rum Punch. To stay refreshed throughout the day, guests will enjoy beer bucket specials – 5 beers for $30 – and Louisiana Punch for $10. The June 12th event will also feature live New Orleans sounds by Bad Apples Brass Band.

The Confidante’s Backyard BBQ will always be free admission, with special pricing for eats + drinks.

Future Backyard BBQ themes include shellfish fests, lobster fests, tiki parties and more. Next month’s Backyard BBQ will be on Sunday, July 10th with Freaky Tiki Tropical Luau (think whole roasted pig, banana-leaf baked whole fish and more island favorites).
