150 Backyard Cookout Recipes

Maybe it's the fresh air or the smoky aroma. . . but we think just about everything tastes better when it's cooked outdoors! Is your family bored with plain old burgers and hot dogs? Jazz up the buns with sizzling herb burgers and camp-out chili dogs. . . or how about charcoal grilled pizza instead? Show off your cookout skills with lazy-day grilled ribs, grilled flank steak sandwich and ginger-lime grilled salmon. Or cook up an easy meal-in-one like bountiful hobo packs or kiddies' chicken packets.

To round out a delicious backyard meal, who could resist confetti corn salad, balsamic grilled tomatoes, bacon corn on the cob and smoky new potatoes? But save room for dessert, because there's grilled pineapple sundaes and melty chocolate burritos too! You'll find easy directions using familiar ingredients. So fire up the grill. . . let's cook out tonight!
