Whatever happened to hot dogs and hamburgers?
Ribs. But no picnic and no BBQ. It’s gonna be 106. July 4th is an indoor holiday in the desert.
Tofu and kale quiche. Jk.
Lamb chops.
Most likely hotdogs and baked beans’ special recipe. Yum!
Probably watching Wimbledon if here’s a good match on. Rooting for Djokovic.
Tacos and Burritos. Chow mein and egg fu yung. Ramen noodles and spring rolls. Borscht. Polish sausages and sauerkraut. Turnips. Roasted goat.
Probably Salmon burgers and fries.
Brisket on the Recteq pellet grill!
At my home in Alabama we will be munching down on possum innards, armadillo soup, and buzzard pie for desert.
I just bought one of these last week, the Sopito Professional Stainless Potato Cutter. I'm still figuring out how to get the best French fries out of it, using my Breville Smart Oven Air on the air-fry setting.
I will be making my own chili using ground 80/20 chuck steak... I am cooking the meat various spices will be added in including paprika, chili powder, Cayenne pepper, etc..
You should try this ground beef chili recipe from America's Test Kitchen. You make your own chili powder from dried Ancho chilis, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, coriander, thyme, and crushed tortilla chips as the thickener.

Chili dogs and onion rings.
Not going out to grill anything or the cats will get outside and be scared with the fireworks. This is day 2 of their confinement. I hate holidays due to moronic tourists.
I’ll tell you what I wish I was cooking...
Deep State’s goose.
I’ve gotten into the tradition of the Big Kahuna Burger for Independence Day.
A mainstay of Quentin Tarantino movies, someone actually developed an improbable, but very taste recipe for a Hawaiian themed hamburger. Optimally, they are best on “King’s Hawaiian” brand buns, but they are not always available, so either plain or seeded buns work fine.
2lbs hamburger
4 Tbsp Hawaiian-style Teriyaki marinade/sauce
6 pineapple slices
6 slices of provolone cheese
1 pkg large buns
Optional:
lettuce, purple onion, tomato, sliced jalapeno,
peperoncini or banana pepper. Small bowl of spicy pineapple salsa on the side.
Big Kahuna Secret Sauce
Equal parts ketchup and brown sugar + 1 tbs Dijon mustard
Simmer all ingredients until sugar is melted and fully blended.
Marinate hamburger in Teriyaki sauce for at least 20 min.
BBQ grill both burgers and pineapple slices then melt cheese over burger before serving.
Goes good with fries, a frosty beverage either soft drink or Mai Tais for adults, and plenty of patriotism.
“You will cook crickets and grubs and like it, or not.”
Piranha steak? No thanks. Oh, what’s that? Picanha? Never mind...
Well, my wife es good deals on pork tender loin....... so
To nite we are having one of my favorites, Penang Sate cooked on the grill with peanut sauce. My best memory of sate is from the veranda of the Penang hotel. Also, coconut milk rice cakes, sauteed snow peas and Thai cucumber salad
Then on the fourth, I’m grilling a whole tenderloin soaked in a fantastic marinade taught to us by a now deceased college buddy.
Burgers, potato salad and baked beans for us.
