Mexican Street Corn Salad
My first taste of Elote corn was love at first bite, and now I look forward to it every summer. The smoky, tangy, salty combination of grilled corn with lime and cotija is....perfect. And it gets even better in the form of Mexican street corn salad because eliminating the cob made it easier to get more into ones mouth! This delicious and versatile dish has become a summer menu staple. With a hint of our Cuban Spice for depth of flavor, and plenty of cilantro to add a bright layer you can serve this alongside just about anything coming off the grill. This recipe is made without mayonnaise or crema - so it can sit out or travel to a picnic worry free. Enjoy!

Grilled Chicken and Pineapple with Ayam Peanut Sauce
Ayam peanut chicken has been on my summer menu for years, and this updated version is the best one yet. Our Indonesian Ayam spice lends the peanut sauce a special flavor to peanut sauce that puts it over the top. The spicing is notable but not overpowering and paired with peanut and citrus makes a versatile sauce that complements grilled chicken and pineapple perfectly.Looking for more grill season recipes?

Compound Butter with Seasoning Salt
I love the flavor trinity of corn + butter + salt, so this recipe for compound butter immediately popped to mind. It is an easy way to take a good thing and make it even better with the addition of spice. Grilled corn is amazing, butter makes it better and the seasoning salt is like the icing on the cake. And by creating a compound butter with the seasoning salt you ensure that the flavors stay in place for every bite.We debuted these compound butters with grilled corn at our seasonal grilling kick off party at Sutter Home & Hearth, and everyone loved them! Speaking for myself and a few others we enjoyed all three. The Provencal Salt butter was bright and herby, the Svaneti Salt butter featured caraway and coriander and the Voodoo was simply magical. Also delicious using Tuscan Rosemary Salt and America's Seasoned Salt, too! The flavor fun doesn't stop with corn, though, use these compound butters on steak, seafood, baked potatoes, scrambled eggs and more. They keep in the refrigerator for a nice long time so make a big batch!

Everything is easy to prep and the sliders pop on and off the grill in just a few minutes. Sit back and enjoy the flavors!

Hands up if you've made a barbecue turkey? I've been cooking our holiday bird on the grill for years now and its finally time to share it!

That's the way traditions are made, and this one is worth keeping.Fin & Feather is a delightful BBQ blend formulated for fish and poultry. It is bright and flavorful, with onion, marjoram and sage topping off the standard pepper, mild chiles and paprika. It makes the perfect centerpiece for a Thanksgiving feast, so bring on the sides.......The first step in this preparation is brining the bird, and be sure to allow yourself plenty of time and space for that. Then once the bird is ready to cook, just fire up the grill. You can cook on a gas grill or over charcoal, but either way your oven is now free for all the other wonderful Thanksgiving fare without a traffic jam. Make an extra pie!
