As much as we enjoy burgers and dogs fresh off the grill, when it comes to summer barbecues, it’s the sides we really look forward to. There are so many fun ways to prepare fresh vegetables, and when else do we get to think of potatoes and pasta as “salads?”

Store-bought side dishes will work in a pinch, but in our experience, there are some dishes that are worth making from scratch. Preparing your own sides is also a great way to make sure that everyone’s dietary preferences are able to be met. As summer comes to an end and we get ready for the final cookouts of the season, these are the side dishes we’ll be making on repeat.

Horiatiki Pasta Salad

When most of us think of feta cheese, fresh veggies, and Kalamata olives, we refer to it as a Greek salad, but the “official” name for this combination is horiatiki. This pasta salad recipe is packed with Mediterranean flavors and is a certified crowd-pleaser at any summer gathering. 

Cucumber Salad With Fresh Herbs

Getting your greens in has never been so easy and delicious. This cucumber salad by Minimalist Baker incorporates fresh dill and mint and is ready to serve in just 15 minutes. It can be made with either regular or vegan feta and is naturally gluten-free. 

Roasted Radish & New Potato Salad

The prettiest salad we ever did see. This healthy take on classic potato salad features pink and purple radishes and bite-sized potatoes and is made without mayonnaise. Finish with some spring onion for even more color.

Sweet P’s is one of the best barbecue restaurants in the United States. Located in Knoxville, Tennessee, deep in the heart of BBQ country, this restaurant features a diverse menu of smoked meats and traditional side dishes that residents and visitors alike love.

Outside of the normal barbecue restaurant favorites that are featured on Sweet P’s menu, there’s another, more unique menu item that diners tend to love: a barbecue burrito. Served inside of a flour tortilla and stuffed with pulled pork, barbecue sauce, barbecue beans, and coleslaw, this menu item has become a favorite at Sweet P’s, and for good reason.

But, there’s another, more extreme option, if you’re looking for a truly huge meal at this restaurant. Sweet P’s also serves a bigger version of their normal burrito that clocks in at four pounds and is known as the “El Gigante Comida Burrito.”

Diners that can finish this huge burrito as well as half a pound of the restaurant’s famous macaroni cheese and banana pudding in under an hour win the challenge and eat their meal free, getting a t-shirt and a spot on the restaurant’s “Hall of Fame.”

Do you think you could finish this extreme burrito challenge?

If you were to pick one region of the United States that’s world-renowned for its contributions to gastronomy, it would have to be the South.

This region has produced a number of incredible dishes that are now recognized around the world for their fantastic taste. If you’re looking to take your Southern food game to the next level, here are four dishes from this region that you have to try.

Biscuits

The South’s bread par excellence has to be biscuits. These puffy, light, and airy bread rolls are usually made with buttermilk, which gives them a rich flavor that goes perfectly when slathered with jelly or butter.

Fried Chicken

The most famous food worldwide that comes from the South is probably fried chicken. Now available nearly everywhere, the juiciness and saltiness of this delicious dish is the centerpiece of many a-Southern meal.

Fried Green Tomatoes

Want to make a Southern brunch at home? Then you have to include FGTs, which are made with unripe tomatoes that are covered in batter and then fried. Sounds weird, but tastes incredible.

Regional Barbecue

The South is home of all kinds of regional barbecues, from vinegar-based Carolina barbecue to sweet and sticky Memphis barbecue. You can’t go wrong with any of them, as these delicious sauces bring out the best in all kinds of meat.

Grilling steak is not as easy as it looks. However, you don’t need to be an expert to get it done. Here are some mistakes to avoid when grilling steak:

Don’t cook the steak directly from the refrigerator

It is better to take the steak out of the fridge for up to an hour before making plans to cook it on the roasting rack. You should also use this time to season it with sea salt. It will have enough time to marinate and for a better taste.

Don’t use iodized salt

Sea salt is the best option for seasoning steak. Kosher salt is ideal and has medium sized grains that blend in perfectly when used for seasoning. Any other sea salt will do, but table salt or iodized salt should be avoided at all costs. They have more weight and can cause over seasoning.

Don’t season too early

If you season too early, you could pull the moisture out of the beef, and it will affect the outer appearance and taste of the steak.

Ensure that it is dry before grilling

Pat the meat down before grilling because it forms the best crust. It also makes it tastier.

Do not use charcoal briquettes

Avoid charcoal briquettes because they add a horrid kerosene flavor to the steak. Propane grills are a better option.

Grilling steak is not as easy as it looks. However, you don’t need to be an expert to get it done. Here are some mistakes to avoid when grilling steak:

It is better to take the steak out of the fridge for up to an hour before making plans to cook it on the roasting rack. You should also use this time to season it with sea salt. It will have enough time to marinate and for a better taste.
