Perfect timing for summer cookouts! Costco’s BBQ Platter in the deli is one of those convenient solutions that can save you serious time when you’re feeding a crowd this holiday weekend and beyond.
This is a prepared meat platter sold by the pound, featuring an assortment of BBQ favorites ready to heat and serve. You’re looking at a mix of items like ribs, chicken, potato salad and corn. They even through in some pickles and pickled onions. The meats come already cooked and sauced, so you’re basically just reheating.
The value here is all about convenience versus quality. Yes, you could smoke your own meats for hours and get better results, but let’s be real – not everyone has the time or equipment for that. For last-minute gatherings or when you just don’t feel like firing up the smoker or grill, this does the job.

- Current Price: $5.49 per lb

Bottom Line: If you need to feed people without the fuss, this BBQ platter delivers solid convenience at a reasonable per-pound cost. Just manage your expectations – it’s decent crowd-pleasing food, not competition-level BBQ.
