Fire Up the Grill! Amazing 50 Labor Day Grilling Recipes
Summer’s not over yet! Let’s celebrate with a delicious Labor Day barbecue. I have 50 Labor Day Grilling Recipes to help you get your menu planned.
Labor Day is the un-official end of Summer. But don’t despair, the weather is still good (I hope it is for you) and the good news is there’s still more time for grilling, 3 days of it.
I’ve recently updated this list from 30 to 50 amazing recipes. I’m comin’ in hot (see what I did there?) with all the classics like Hot Dogs, Burgers and Ribs, as well as grilled side dishes like Grilled Corn on the Cob, and some exciting Grilled Seafood.
Labor Day: the official excuse to eat grilled food all day.
