We ended up doing rather a last minute thing, but it turned out well. DH had smoked a brisket a couple of days ago so we had a good start on the food:
Hickory smoked brisket
Link sausage
Chicken breasts - marinated in Baja Chipotle marinade
Baked potatoes
Baked beans
Garlic bread
Fruit salad
Apricot cobbler
We have a TON of food left over - I don't know what I'm going to do with it all!

We went to a friends house and did a modified surf and turf dinner. The surf was cooked shrimp and the turf was grilled steaks. We also had a salad, rolls, asparagus, and baked potato. We all were so stuffed that we did not even get a chance to enjoy the watermelon that was for desert. Everyone had a great time.

Didn't cook but we did end up at my SIL house for a cookout yesterday. Nothing special just burgers and hotdogs, fruit tray, baked beans, chip, dip, homemade ice cream

We were at my boyfriend's parents house and they grilled for us. I had a nice filet mignon and some grilled spinach naan. They all made homemade gyros from grilled sirloin, some yogurt concoction and grilled naan. I was quite full after lunch. : )

Yup....of COURSE we grilled out. I mean...it's almost as much of a tradition as watching fireworks. I really do enjoy getting together to spend time with friends and family to cook out.
