Get your summer off to a great start with our Memorial Day grilling recipes!
Lamb Burger With Brie & Spicy Sriracha Mayo
If you're going to go with burgers, leave the beef for the steaks and go with lamb. Hearty and very flavorful, these lamb burgers are perfect to give your backyard bash a sophisticated touch.
Grilled Boneless Ribeye With Chimichurri Sauce
A meaty boneless ribeye is a thing of beauty, especially grilled to perfection on a hot summer's day. We smeared ours with a zesty chimichurri sauce, an Argentina garlic and herbs sauce that brings out the flavor of the meat just beautifully.
Grilled Salmon Skewers With Mango Salsa
These salmon skewers combine a fresh salmon with seasonal veggies, and you can replace the zucchinis and mushrooms with whatever you have on hand (cherries tomatoes and baby onions would work great). It's a great lighter option to serve if you're not feeling weighing down pre-ocean-dip with a heavy meat meal.
Grilled Seafood With Spiced Citrus Sauce
Who said the grill is the domain of the meat? Bring out all your favorite seafood - shrimps, octopus, squid, and clam, and give them their day in the sun and grill. The wonderfully smokiness of grilling is a great contrast to the freshness of seafood. A zesty citrus sauce makes it all shine even brighter.
Grilled Vegetables With Pineapple Creole Sauce<
For the vegetarian and vegan guests that still want to enjoy that flavor of the grill, an assortment of filling vegetables paired with a sweet creole sauce featuring pineapple is colorful and flavorful. It also serves as a great partner for the meat, so this is a great BBQ recipe for your Memorial Day bash.
Grilled Pork Skirt Steak With Grilled Avocado And Pico De Gallo
Succulent iberico pork skirt steak is matched to a zesty pico de gallo sauce and paired with meaty grilled avocados. The perfect summer grilling dish, this is definitely one to try this weekend.
Grilled Sesame Pork Chops
American with an Asian twist, this is what America is all about! These rilled pork chops are meaty, juicy, flavorful and utterly delicious. Glazed with a teriyaki sauce and paired with a fresh apple slaw salad, it's the perfect dish for an outdoorsy meal.
Grilled Dates Stuffed With Goat Cheese and Wrapped in Serrano Ham
While your grill those steaks and burgers to perfection, serve your guests this easy and delicious appetizer. Sweet dates are stuffed with creamy goat cheese, wrapped in buttery Prosciutto or Serrano ham, then grilled for a minute until the cheese melts.
