Forget hamburgers and hot dogsthe U.S. Department of Agriculture is pushing people to grill up pineapple slices, peaches, nectarines and other fruit for their big July 4th feast.
Throw some grilled pineapple on the grill & get ready to enjoy natures candy, USDAs MyPlate website tweeted out this week. [ ]
If you must grill meat, USDA is suggesting things like a low-sodium & tasty recipe for grilled steak with Criolla sauce.

You can be sure Moochelle will be saying tomorrow, “Let’s Move to the grill and slam down some Wagyu burgers!”

Our prehistoric ancestors did not claw and bite their way up the food chain so one day would be found eating veggie burritos.
I just pulled 2 briskets off the smoker. Doing ribs tomorrow.
Might get some zucchini out of the garden, marinade it and grill that for a side.
I might throw on a USDA uniform to get in on that action. I hope I don’t get shot!
The deer hunter is the herds best friend. We only kill those that need be killed to maintain the best balance.
Bambi Burgers or Jerky are great.
Department of Redundancy Department, just like ‘hot water heater’...
Maybe they’re making a new Mexican-style dish: Regrilled Pineapple. (ala Refried Beans, for those of you who haven’t yet had your morning coffee...)
BTW, I like grilled pineapple, but may stop eating it it the gov’t starts pushing it on people.
Sorry, but I’m a traditionalist. The family is coming over and I’m grilling hamburgers and hot dogs. My sister and mom are bringing the salads and sides. The only fruit will be on the fruit pizza I’ll be making this morning and the big old watermelon sitting in the fridge.
Liberalism IS a mental disorder ... and I’ll grill what I damn well please.
