UP IN SMOKE
GET YOUR MENU FOR THE 4TH OF JULY
June 29th, 2012

Dear Friends of the Grill,

I know I don’t have to ask my readers what they’ll be doing on the 4th—it’s not a question of whether you’ll be grilling, but of what. As for me, after two and a half months on the road, I’m taking a vacation. My stepson, chef Jake, will be manning the grill. I hear talk of lobster, clams, swordfish, and corn on the grill—a New England grill-top clambake.

Blueberry Crumble
For those of you who haven’t yet settled on a menu, I hereby present my take on a 4th of July feast. It’s colorful, it’s satisfyingly patriotic, and it’s grilled all the way through. Stand up for your right to cook food over an open flame—it’s the American way.

The Menu

Green Lightning (aka Spicy Shrimp Skewers)
Lone Star Beef Ribs with Bare Bones Barbecue Sauce
Cole Slaw the Joe’s Stone Crab Way
Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad
Blueberry Crumble

Yours in righteous grilling,
Steven Raichlen, Grill Master and Editor-in-Chief
