Quick tips for summer grilling:
- Crisco No-Stick Cooking Spray makes clean up a breeze! Simply spray the cold grill (never spray a hot grill) for non-stick grilling all summer long!
- Use long handled tongs — not a meat fork — to turn meats on the grill. Forks can pierce the meat, releasing the juices (and flavor!) from your food.
- Always let grilled meats rest 10-15 minutes before slicing or serving for the juiciest results.
What's the first thing to go at any get-together? The shrimp! Our Grilled Shrimp Bruschetta will be the hit of any summer party! Featuring another summer favorite, tomatoes, this recipe highlights seasonal cooking at its best. Try tossing the shrimp and tomato mixture with pasta for a quick and easy summer supper.
Your family will think you're an angel when you make them our nicely spiced Grilled Deviled Chicken! Try the deviled barbecue sauce over your favorite meatloaf recipe, too!
Summer is the time to enjoy corn at every opportunity! How do you pick the very best corn? Look for bright green tightly fitting husks and fresh looking silk. Corn is best cooked the day it's purchased. Our Corn Relish Salad has the taste of sauerkraut, pimentos, peppers and onions — a combination that works well with most any meat from the grill.
Why not make an entire meal from the grill? Our Grilled Garlic Chicken Salad features a medley of grilled vegetables and chicken- even grilled croutons — tossed with crisp summer greens. It's a hearty one-dish meal- from the grill!
Our Grilled Tomato and Basil Bruschetta is right at home on the grill. After all, Bruschetta gets its name from the Italian word bruscare, meaning "to roast over coals". Choose your favorite toppings and enjoy Grilled Bruschetta all summer long.
For a change of pace from burgers or steaks, try our Grilled Beef and Vegetable Kabobs. Avoid flare-ups on the grill by soaking wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before threading on the beef.
Give your family an earful! Our Sweet and Spicy Grilled Corn is a summer favorite. For best results, select corn that's still in its bright green husk with fresh looking silk. Wait to remove the husks until just before cooking. You can store corn in the refrigerator for a day or two, but it's best cooked the same day it's purchased.
Dessert from the grill? You bet! Our All-American Grilled Pound Cake tastes great after a light toasting on the grill. Whether you make pound cake from scratch or use our speedy variation, your family will request this simple dessert again and again!
