Summer Grilling Guide 2026

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen…and onto your patio or deck! It’s grilling season and, as you’ll see from the expanded recipe collection in this year’s guide, there’s no limit to what you can cook on a grill. For many, there’s nothing quite like the taste of a burger with just the right amount of char; for others, it’s a medley of seasonal vegetables that have been marinated in olive oil and herbs. And who doesn’t enjoy grilled fruit, especially over cake slices, ice cream, or both?
