Charred Romaine Salad
Hardy lettuces like romaine, escarole, endive, radicchio, and even kale can handle the heat on the grill beautifully. The charred leaves add a surprising level of smokiness to side dishes and summer salads alike.

Grilled Flatbread with Summer Squash
Summer squash is relatively mild when raw, but once grilled it becomes smoky, slightly sweet, and super tender, making it a top-notch flatbread topper.

Baba Ganoush with Grilled Eggplant
Hummus gets much of the dip spotlight, but we’re also big fans of its smoky, tahini-spiked cousin, baba ganoush. This eggplant dip works just as well with toasted pita, cut veggies, or as a flavorful sandwich spread.

Grilled Lemon-Cilantro Punch
Next time you’re standing over a hot grill, might we suggest throwing some lemons on for a super refreshing, large-format cocktail? The heat helps release their juices, making ’em well-suited to salad dressings or drinks. To mix up a mocktail, just leave out the liquor or choose a non-alcoholic spirit.

Grilled Seafood Boil
An all-out seafood boil doesn’t require fancy equipment. All you really need is a couple pieces of foil and a grill. The key to a truly delicious rendition is making sure every bit of our buttery Old Bay spice mixture gets rubbed into your seafood, sausage, and veggies before the packets hit the flames.
