Celebrate with this Lumberjack Bash – the ultimate lumberjack party!
Get out your beards and flannel – it’s time for a Lumberjack Bash!
I am so excited to share this Rustic and Burly Lumberjack Party fit for all the little Lumberjacks and Jills! I used delicious food and adorable printables to create a fun twist on a classic Holiday party.
My favorite decoration in this party is the Lumberjack Bash sign. To make the lumberjack banner, I found a paper banner with a plaid pattern and added some adhesive burlap letters.
For the BASH sign, I used a piece of pallet wood for the base and found some 8 inch wood letters at the craft store. I painted the letters gold and found these adorable ornaments.
After finding the center of the wood base with a tape measure, I attached the letters and ornaments to the wood base starting in the center with hot glue.
The star of this party has got to be the food. We started with a delicious Sausage Cornbread Stuffing.
Made with sweet cornbread and savory sausage, this Sausage Cornbread Stuffing reminds me of the stuffing my family made growing up. 
It is perfect for a Holiday party because it so warm and comforting and perfect for a crowd. Here’s the recipe:
- 1 pkg. Jimmy Dean® Premium Pork Roll Sausage (Sage or Regular)
- 2 cups chopped celery
- 1 cup finely chopped onion
- 4 cups coarsely crumbled cornbread, toasted
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- ½ cup chopped pecans (optional)
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Cook sausage, celery and onion in large skillet over MEDIUM-HIGH heat 8-10 minutes or until sausage is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; drain. Spoon into large bowl.
- Add cornbread, parsley and seasoning; mix lightly. Add broth and egg; mix just until blended. Stir in pecans, if desired.
- Spoon into lightly greased 2-quart casserole or soufflé dish; cover.
- Bake 45 minutes or until thoroughly heated, uncovering after 35 minutes.
- For the 4 cups crumbled cornbread needed to prepare this recipe, bake 1 pkg. (8.5 ounces) corn muffin mix according to the package directions for the pan of cornbread. Cool, then coarsely crumble. To toast the crumbled cornbread, preheat oven to 400°F. Spread the cornbread onto bottom of large shallow baking pan. Bake 10 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring after 5 minutes.)
I love that this pulled pork recipe can be made ahead in the Crock Pot, so there’s one less thing to worry about when it’s time for the party.
For dessert I made S’mores on a Stick by attaching a marshmallow to a bamboo skewer, dipping it in melted Almond Bark, and rolling it in crushed graham cracker. They were so simple, but they were one of the biggest hits of the night. For drinks, I blended crushed ice with apple cider for a delicious Apple Cider Slush.
Of course, I also had to design some fun printables to go with the theme.

These food tags were so much fun to design with whimsical forest designs:
And of course you must have invitations or no one will know to come!
Here are a few other details that I just love:

Oh Megan, this party is so much fun! I love all the little details and recipes and printables. I can’t wait until my husband’s next birthday now so I can throw him a Lumberjack party! [client]
How darn cute are the little taxidermy animals!
OMG it is so lovely! I adore it! You’re so creative, and thanks for the recipes!
Yum this post made me super hungry! I love the themed decor as well
I love this! So cute and such a creative idea. I may have to do something similar for my little guys 3rd birthday (since I already have an idea for his 2nd….lol). Thanks!
This is such a cute idea!! I love this and have it pinned for when one of my boys agrees to let me do it for them! Thank you for sharing!
Hi, can you please share where you purchased your invite, or if you designed it yourself, if I could purchase your template please? Thank you!
Hi Kelly!
I’m so glad you liked them! I created the invitations and they are available with the printables in the post – just click on the pink box that says “Click here to download the Lumberjack Bash Printables”.
Hi! Where did you get the recipe for the BBQ sliders?
Hi Katie! These BBQ Pork Sliders are the easiest! I need to share a post with the recipe soon! To make the BBQ sliders, just cook a pork loin in the crock pot with a can of root beer for 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on high. Then drain the root beer and shred the pork with two forks. Then add a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce and put it back in the crock pot on low until you’re ready to serve. They are so simple! Let me know if you have any questions!
Hello! I’m throwing my son a “Lumberjack Bash” for his first birthday come October. Was wondering what size envelopes you purchased for the invites, seeing as how they’re half a page. Thanks in advance! 🙂
Hi Taylor! A9 envelopes should be perfect for these invitations. They are 5.75 X 8.75, giving you the perfect amount of room on each side of the invitation. Let me know if you have any other questions and come back and share all the details with us after his party!
