We asked three VFC dad's what their secrets were to the perfect summertime meal. Here's what they said:
Matt's Favorites
My family has simple tastes: a little salt and pepper in ground beef burger patties goes a long way. Sometimes we give it an extra kick with Niman Ranch's Applewood Smoked Uncured Bacon. It's tasty and has zero sugar. Add a slice of cheddar or Muenster cheese on top and it's a win-win-win!
Jonah's Hot Tips
Oil your grill grates before cooking to avoid food sticking to the grill. I like a high heat oil like avocado oil.
Use an Instant-Read Thermometer to check for doneness. Set it and go.
Rest your meat after cooking for 5-10 minutes. That way it will stay tender and juicy.
