Warmer weather has finally arrived which means only one thing. Grilling season is here! During the summer, steaks, burgers, sides, and even desserts are just so much better when they’re made on the grill. Stock up on propane or grab a bag of charcoal and make one of these 16 recipes to kick off grilling season.
Dale’s Dazzling Grilled Shrimp
“This is a recipe that my husband gave me that he got from some family friends growing up in St.Pete. Leaving the shells on the shrimp while grilling makes the shrimp nice and moist.” – Melissa
Marinated Flank Steak & Mushrooms
“This adds lots of flavor to an inexpensive cut. Be sure to slice it across the grain when serving.” – Pamela
Grilled Coconut Chicken
“So this is a twist I took from a deep-fried coconut breaded recipe. I wanted a healthier style of chicken and this is what I came up with. It is so moist and delish!!” – Ashley
Grilled Chicken Thighs and Drumstick
“A very simple, delicious, and moist grilled chicken.” – Chacha
David’s BBQ Pork Ribs
“This recipe is one I came up with one day when wanting something different for my BBQ ribs other than BBQ sauce. This recipe gives ribs an incredible flavor that you just need to try. All of my family and friends that have tried this recipe, ask for it every time I BBQ.” – David
Lemon and Feta Grilled Asparagus
“Smoky grilled asparagus in a light and fresh lemon and feta vinaigrette.” – Kevin
BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger w/Chipotle Mayo
“I love the flavor of smoky-sweet BBQ on my burger. I made this recipe trying to find a nice BBQ burger that tastes great without all of the normal burger fixings. I feel that this is my best burger. My siblings agree with me.” – Tara
Marinated Grilled Pork Tenderloin
“I wow people all the time with this pork tenderloin. People come back, not for seconds, but for thirds and fourths. It is just so savory, tender, and juicy. I frequently grill these loins for large parties, such as my Mom’s retirement party or large family gatherings.” – Gina
Grilled Corn – The Sweetest Corn Ever (2 ing.)
“For the longest time every time I had a get-together or function of any kind that involved grilling, the first question I was always asked was if I was going to make my grilled corn on the cob? Couldn’t figure out what was so darn special about my corn utnil my friends and family told me it was seasoned just right. Sweet enough, with a hint of salt and then we spread on the butter…” – Didi
Balsamic Grilled Vegetables
“Veggies marinated in balsamic vinegar and soy sauce and cooked in a grill basket until smoky, slightly charred, and tender-crisp. A healthy and tasty side dish! Try it with whatever veggies you prefer – asparagus, eggplant, green beans, etc!” – Susan
Grilled Steak and Veggies Tacos
“Flat iron steak has become my favorite versatile cut of beef. It cooks quickly and has the rich flavor of more expensive steaks. The grilled vegetables and cheese make this taco irresistible! We rarely have any leftovers, which is a shame because the filling makes for an amazing omelet.” – Joann
Grilled Squash With Balsamic Drizzle
“I love all types of squash and I love to grill. The balsamic reduction adds just the right tanginess.” – Sherri
Drunken Grilled Peaches
“These drunken grilled peaches are finger-licking good.” – Lorna

Grilled Peach & Arugula Salad
“Perfectly ripe yet firm peaches paired with spicy baby arugula, homemade peach vinaigrette, and toasted Georgia pecans make for an unforgettable flavor combination.” – Shika
