Where I come from, summer means food. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, you’ll be hard pressed to find a weekend when I’m not moving my chair with a layer full of pasta salad to a friend’s house or another. Maybe it’s a Midwestern thing, but summertime cooking is serious business, and showing up empty-handed is definitely a cardinal sin. So you better believe that I have an arsenal of summer BBQ recipes ready to scream at a time announced for these times.
From classic burgers on the grill to hearty meals and salads filled with fresh ingredients, outdoor meals are one of my favorite parts of summer. There’s nothing like hanging out in the backyard with friends and family, a plate of freshly cooked food in one hand and a cold beer in the other. So, whether you’re preparing your own meals, cooking at a friend’s house, or doing your best to recreate the experience at home, these 40 recipes are easy and Enjoying summer will help you embrace the best this season has to offer. .
