I'm hoping you've noticed our month-long message about National Barbecue Month! I've been trying to entice you to cook something on the grill, and so far we've featured grilled chicken and fish, grilled pizza, and vegetables on the grill. But now we're heading into a big holiday grilling weekend for the U.S. and nothing says summer holidays like burgers on the grill.
Besides the obvious appeal of food you can eat with your hands, maybe one reason burgers are so popular is that there's a burger variation for every type of eating preference! Whether you'd like beef, fancy burgers with unusual additions, other meats, turkey, portobello or vegetarian burger options, we've got you covered. Which one of these burger recipes looks like something that would be right at home on your barbecue grill?
