Bratwursts, hot dogs and hamburgers. With baked beans, grilled corn on the cob and marinated asparagus, taco salad, veggies and dip, spaghetti salad and cake. Yay leftovers!

Hot dogs AND hamburgers, with baked beans, green salad, pasta salad, and homemade vanilla ice cream for dessert with a choice of toppings (I had butterscotch).

God bless America! Happy 234th!

Bad poll; can only vote for one item.

I made hamburgers and hot dogs, and my partner made some kind of macrobiotic yak barf that most people took but didn’t eat. I gave some to the cats, who pawed at it like they were burying shit.

My wife found awesome steak on sale for $4.67 / lb., and my daughter sent me steak rub and steak seasoning for Father’s Day. Put them on the grill, and it turned out great. (Just finished dinner.) Now, we’re making beignets at the request of my daughter and her friends.
