Oh heyyyy BBQ season. You just crept up on us from behind now didn’t ya?
That’s a lie. Anyone living in New England has either been grilling since March or just never put the grill away.
We’re so hardcore. Except me…I’m always cold. Ain’t no way I will be going outside to cook unless it’s at least 70′. That’s a fact.
So while I wait another week or two to get my grill going…and get my recipes shared…here is a quick round-up from some of my fellow food bloggers to get you ready. Because, clearly you can handle the crisp air. You are much tougher than I am. {Everyone is tougher than me, another fact.}
