Fire Up For Grilling Season
(NAPSA) - Firing up the grill is a great way to get outside and enjoy the weather with family, friends and, of course, delicious food. And while the classic cookout spread of hamburgers and hot dogs will always be on the menu, this year you may see more nontraditional foods and flavors gracing grills. Grilling expert and host of "Barbecue America" on PBS, Rick Browne, has noticed a trend in home cooks trying new grilling ingredients to create unique dishes and encourages everyone to take the leap.
"There is no limit to the various tastes and flavors that can be used in outdoor cooking," Browne says. "Grilling is about exploring new seasonings and marinades to create an overall unique and delicious taste."
Partnering with Bush's Baked Beans, Browne created a series of recipes that combine fresh flavors with hearty entrees. The recipes, along with cookout tips, party-planning ideas and ingredient checklists, are featured in the online "What to Grill Guide," available free at www.bushbeans.com/ grillingguide. Here is a sneak peak at one of the new recipes.
