Frosé Ice Pops

There's no better way to celebrate warm, sunny days than by sharing these fruity rosé wine ice pops with friends.

The Barbecue Burger

Here’s a way to infuse the evocative spice and smoke flavors of true barbecue into a conventional fast-cooking burger. It uses a smoke-scented barbecue rub. I call it The Barbecue Burger; you might call it smoky nirvana.

Rhubarb Turnovers

These simple spring hand-pies are packed to the brim with tangy sweetened rhubarb. Pack them along, cooled, for a picnic or serve them warm with equally tangy buttermilk-lemon granita.

Mini Frozen Key Lime Pies

Beer-Can Cabbage

Beer-Can Chicken, step aside. Cabbage becomes the star of any backyard barbecue with this awesome beer-steaming-plus-grilling technique. It's a smoky, sweet vegetarian play on pulled pork for Beer-Can Cabbage Sandwiches, but the chopped cabbage can also be served as a side dish.

Barbecue Brisket with Pickled Fennel

You’ve probably never thought of throwing some brisket on the barbie, but this recipe will totally convert you. It’s all about giving this underrated cut the attention it deserves – let the dry marinade flavors penetrate and tenderize the brisket and I promise once it hits the barbecue, the aroma will blow your mind! And the pickled fennel? You won’t believe how good it tastes either.

Drink pink!

Grilled Split Lobster

Splitting lobsters in half makes them easier to grill—and eat.

Ranch Burger

This decadent, delicious burger, featuring a 6-ounce patty, clothbound cheddar cheese, and the requisite "special sauce," comes from Ralph Lauren's restaurant (yes, that Ralph Lauren) in Chicago.

Potato Salad with 7-Minute Eggs and Mustard Vinaigrette

Egg salad and potato salad: Unite! We like how the still-soft yolks dress the salad, but you can cook the eggs a minute or two longer if you like them more set.

Apricot, Cherry, and Graham Cracker Crumble

You've been blessed with the year's best stone fruit. Don't complicate things! Just roast it with a sprinkling of our crunchy topping.

Grilled Maple-Butter Apricots with Vanilla Ice Cream

Step aside pancakes; butter and maple syrup is a combination worthy of the ripest grilled summer fruits. Can't find apricots? Try this recipe with peaches or plums for a fantastic ice cream topping.

Garlic and Herb Spatchcock Grilled Chicken

Spatchcocking (or splitting and flattening) this Italian-flavored chicken before grilling helps it cook more quickly and evenly.

Sonoran Hot Dogs

Bacon-wrapped franks, pinto beans, avocado, and mayo are balanced by pickled jalapeños and salsa in this summertime favorite.

Lamb-Bacon Burgers with Spicy Aioli

At Rioja, half of the bacon is replaced with ground fatback, a step that makes this excellent burger even better.
