Is there a certain way you should give your bearded dragons it's food? I usually feed in a separate bin but is there different ways I could do it? I usually feed him Dubia roaches. can I put them in a dish and see if he eats them from there or just stick with feeding in a separate bin.
If you have a non particle substrate(reptile carpet,paper towel, blank newsheet, tile, etc), you can just dump the Dubia in the tank, with crickets you can't.

They can but unless they get under a Repti carpet or climb up something that the beardy can't, he should be able to track them down. If they stop moving to avoid attention, just poke them and your beardy should notice them.

I'm pretty sure you can just leave them in as they don't usually bite like a cricket would. Plus, I don't think they like the attention(based on their statue-like behavior when a beardy is seen). If you are truly worried but don't want to have to take them out, you might consider leaving a carrot or something that they can eat and drink from.
It could be OK to leave them in there... I've never dealt with roaches before, however I do use crickets more often than not and it is bad for them to be left in there because when your beardie is no longer hungry he will simply stop eating and when the roaches see s/he is not attacking anymore they will calm down and usually even go all around him, essentially taunting him. And since bearded dragons tend to like to be dominant it stresses them out.
