I'm doing the ole standard. Grilled ribs, hamburgers, and hot dogs. I used a rub that I found on here. I'm also making a Dragon Blood Sangria with strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple.
 
Lol, we will probably be eating out somewhere since we are out of town
 
I am having a fish fry. A friend caught a 56 lb. catfish and shared with my daughter. She brought it to me so I am frying fish today and everyone else is bringing a dish. I made a large blueberry cobbler from berries I picked from my patch. I am now over 5 gallons from 6 bushes. It's a really good year for the berries.

Serving grilled brats (bratwurst) and onions on grain rolls, with 3-bean salad and iced tea. Also might enjoy a glass of Dragon Blood with a garnish of frozen whole strawberries.
 
Letsee...


Thursday, made pan fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravey.
Friday, I made ribs, sausage, and London broil,
Sunday, I made a simple meat sauce.

I will post pictures on the "what's for dinner" thread.
 
We did an easy quick dinner. Grilled up 2 different kinds of Brats. One was Cheddar and Bacon Brat the other was a Costco Brat with chicken, artichoke, garlic and mozzarella that was delicious. Also prepared a new (recipe) potato salad that was basically a warm potato salad that was cooked on the grill (tented in aluminum foil). New potatoes, cubed onion, thyme, french tarragon. The dressing was dijon mustard, EVOO, red wine vinegar.

The only thing I do on the fourth is Hamburgers and Hotdogs. This year I did Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs and I have found my new love in life, so from now on that will be it.

That is funny! When I was growing up, a bacon-wrapped dog was called a "Texas Tommy." I always assumed this was, as the name suggested, a Texas thing (and therefore you would have known about it). Turns out that this was a phenomenon specific to the Philadelphia area in the post-WWII period: http://www.seriouseats.com/2009/10/hot-dog-of-the-week-texas-tommy-philadelphia-philly-pa.html

Wow!

I'd never had one, then I saw a chart on the world's hotdogs and how they eat them. I don't remember where it was, but they wrap them in bacon and put them in a roll. My thought was "Perfect food right there.".

Thanks for the link. I love food history. I focus in American Fare. I think as far as international cuisines go we are underrated.
 
I saw an episode of Triple "D" awhile back and they wrapped bacon around a hot dog and then deep fried it! :hug
