We're doing BBQ ribs with no smoker or grill required, baked beans which we'll actually be baking, quick collard greens and even a delicious drink with a splash of color. Kiva Williams, better known as influencer The Fun Foodie Mama, joined us to share a selection of items ideal for an indoor cookout.
