Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of summer and proves the perfect time to gather with friends. The goal is to spend as much time as possible outdoors. The food and drinks for the occasion should be easygoing. Especially for the cook.

Over the years, we’ve learned to be flexible, the weather might not always cooperate. If it’s sunny, fire up the grill and cook over an open flame to get that char and flavor. Storms on the menu? Employ a hot oven as a grill alternative.
