A few weeks ago we celebrated my wife’s birthday with a backyard celebration with friends. We planned the whole menu around making smash burgers and hot dogs on our blackstone griddle.

The menu:

  • Pitcher of margaritas

  • Salt and vinegar hummus and veggies

  • Big charcuterie board

  • Smash burgers and hot dogs with homemade burger sauce

  • Summer corn salad - recipe here

  • Simple caesar salad with homemade croutons

  • Potato chips and sweet potato chips

  • Fresh cut fruit

  • Yellow cake with chocolate frosting - recipe here

All other recipes are written below for paid subscribers.

Pitcher of Margaritas

Serve with ice, cut limes and a plate of salt for guests to salt their own rim.
