Leftovers!

We had an end of summer BBQ this past weekend, and unfortunately, we picked the day that Hanna decided to make her way through south jersey. We went back and forth on rescheduling all week, and finally decided that we should just go through with it. We both had studying to do and if we had the party on Sunday (which was a gorgeous day, btw), we wouldn't have gotten any of it done.
We woke up Saturday morning to a gray sky but no rain yet and I checked my e-mail every 20 minutes looking for a cancellation to my soccer game. Well, the game wasn't canceled, and the rain held out for the two games before ours. Than started just in time for the first whistle to blow and remained light but steady for ours. It got fairly heavy on the way home, then proceeded to drizzle for the remainder of the day. Not wholly unpleasant, however, not exactly BBQ weather.
So we moved the grill into the garage, set up ladder golf and south philly horseshoes in there as well, and counted ourselves lucky that we had, in fact, gotten the basement painted and put back together. It was a good time, we had plenty of room in the house and we played the lawn games in the garage as well as wii and DDR. There were still a good amount of people who did show up, and we had a lot of fun. Unfortunately, we were expecting around 50 and only half that showed, we had planned to feed that many, and only had to feed 25 or so...
Anyone have any good ideas on what two people can do with 20 burgers, 20 hotdogs, and 20 pieces of chicken that are now sitting in my freezer? I'm burnt out on having people over since I always have too much to do to get ready and not enough time to get it done in, and the clean-up is taking even longer, so I'm not sending another e-vite out, but I hate to see all that meat - and corresponding buns - go to waste. So, I welcome any and all ideas! Thanks!
