Classic American Summer Dishes

Best Summer Dishes to Celebrate the Season.

Summer is officially here and it Is time for the best of the season! Here are 8 of the tastiest classic summer dishes to enjoy over these next months:

 

1. Burgers

Nothing says summer more than a heart burger! Burgers, fries, and a cold drink under the sun is the perfect way to celebrate the season.
 

2. Fried Chicken

Fried chicken is delicious all year round, but there’s something about it that’s extra tasty when the days are warm. Every region and country has its versions of fried chicken – which is your favorite?
 

3. Ribs

Ribs! Ribs from the smoker, ribs off the grill, ribs from the oven. They are all fantastic on a hot summer day or a cool summer night.
 

4. Shrimp Boil

A shrimp boil may not be a meal for large gatherings right now. But for an intimate family dinner, there’s nothing like a hands-on meal to relax with at the end of the day.
 

5. Fish Tacos

Fish tacos are tasty at any time, and they are even tastier during summer months especially when you’re by the beach or just simply under the sun.
 

6. Chili

A hot bowl is chili (with beans!) is another classic summer dish. This is a perfect meal for family dinners or for a gathering with friends as a pot of chili can satisfy everyone.
 

7. Mac n’ Cheese

Some consider mac n’ cheese as the main dish while others consider it a side dish. Whichever the case, it is a classic comfort dish that’s so fun to eat during summer months (and let’s face it, all year round, too).
