What's for Dinner?
Let's Have a Cookout! By Allison Huller McAlister
People all over America are firing up their outdoor grills, getting ready for backyard cookouts. Whether it's hot dogs or steak, there's just something about that wonderful smell associated with outdoor grilling that keeps us coming back for more. Grilling out is a relaxing and happy way to cook, giving us a chance to unwind and spend some well-deserved time with our families. And, really, who wants to be cooped up inside slaving over a hot stove?
Here's a menu that's sure to be a hit at your next cookout, featuring tasty Southwestern Blue Cheese Burgers, Mac's Roasted Corn with Herb Butter, Ellie's Baked Beans and Good Ol' Southern Banana Pudding for dessert. Hungry yet?
Honey, go light the grill!
The kids will probably want to stick with the plain old cheeseburgers; however, an adventurous few may enjoy this burger as much as the adults. (I know when I was a kid I wouldn't eat anything that had bleu cheese in it!)
