Summertime Grub at its Finest ? Bitehunter's Blog

Summer is upon us and I?m looking forward to it!? That means fun outdoor activities involving food, including grilling and BBQ?ing.? Whether you cookout in the comforts of your patio and/or backyard or at your local park, it?s always fun to cook some food, knock back a few cold ones with friends, and generally have a good time.? I like cooking over some hot coals, usually hamburgers and or steaks.? Both of these I prefer medium rare, by the way.? Smack some cheese on top of the burgers, Worcester sauce and/or maybe dry rub on the steak, and throw on a cob of corn or two on the side while sipping on some Samuel Adams Summer Ale and I AM SET.

A succulent piece of steak.

If you want to go a bit healthier on your summer foods pasta salads might be the way to go.? Mix a batch of pasta with vinaigrette, fresh tomatoes, basil, broccoli, and some other herbs and spices and you have yourself a nice meal.? Though considered more of a spring/summer dish it can be eaten year-round.? Other ingredients I recommend are baby corn, carrots, and peppers.? And I think it goes without saying ? but I?ll say it anyway ? pasta salads are best prepared within the confines of your kitchen.

Pasta salads: the healthy choice for summer meals.

If you?re of legal drinking you should try out the Sam Adams Summer Ale I mentioned earlier while feasting.? It has a refreshing citrus flavor that I enjoy.? Also, you can?t go wrong with Yuengling,? the oldest beer brewed in the U.S.? It?s a fine beer to have on any occasion.? My personal favorite for foreign beer is the Belgian wheat beer, Hoegaarden.? A smooth taste from the top all the way down to the very bottom of the glass: I absolutely love it.

The Belgians KNOW how to brew beer.
