Throwback Thursday, Summer Grilling Recipes
I’m getting ready to head to the beach tomorrow
for the week of the 4th of July with my family
I have been thinking about our menu
and have rounded up a few Summer favorites
that are great for the grill
We rarely go out to dinner in the Summer,
the restaurants are just too crowded
we’d all rather relax at home and dine Al fresco
Let’s talk Shish Kebabs!
and it’s fun to create all kinds of unique combinations
You can use a combination of ingredients on each skewer
or you can put all the meat on skewers
and all the vegetables on skewers
Then after grilling, remove the skewers, put everything on a platter
and then people can choose what they want
when making their plates
Bourbon Glazed Brussels Sprouts & Bacon Kebabs
make a tasty side dish, they’re so good you’ll think it’s Christmas!
Honey Mustard Chicken and Vegetable Kebabs
are made on separate skewers
since the chicken and potatoes have a longer cooking time
than the mushrooms, zucchini and peppers
Grilled Rum Glazed Coconut Shrimp ~ rum, coconut and shrimp, yes please!
Hawaiian Chicken Kebabs with Smoked Sausage, Peaches & Apricots
are an unexpected combo and make a great summer dinner
Pineapple Teriyaki Chicken & Bacon Kebabs
are seasoned with lemon and blackened seasoning before grilling
Here are more kebab recipes I want to try this summer
Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bite Skewers for a fun appetizer
Grilled Lemon Garlic Potato Kabobs for a side
Steak, Potato & Asparagus Kebabs
Grilled Strawberry Shortcake Skewers with Blueberry Glaze for dessert!
You know the old saying-
“Everything tastes better on a stick!”

You have given us lots of yummy choices. Your sketches are wonderful.
Thanks so much Bernadette!
These look wonderful — I love the idea of multiple kinds of skewers so people can choose what they like.
Thanks Jeanie, shish kebabs make wonderful meals!
HOW DID YOU KNOW??? My husband just got a new grill for Father’s Day! Perfect timing. We’ll be by the pool for the 4th and this looks delicious and fun. Safe travels to you through the traffic and Happy Independence Day!
Kebabs are so versatile, and yes, turn the cooking over to your husband! Looking forward to getting to the coast, it’s so hot up here!
Summer grilling makes everything easy!
Love the mermaid!
Thank you Dorothy, we cook out almost every night in the summertime and kebabs have infinite possibilities!
Jenna, my order is rum glazed coconut shrimp. There are so many great grilling options on your roundup! Safe travels and enjoy your family time at the beach ♥️🇺🇸💙
Thanks so much Pam! I hope you and yours have a fabulous 4th!
Jenna, these recipes all look yummy and perfect for summer! The chicken teriyaki looks really good. Your alfresco tablescape is beautiful. The light blue color palette is so pretty. Have a wonderful time at the beach with your family, sweet friend!
thanks so much Shannon, we love kebabs, and it’s easy to make them kid friendly too!
Just give me the steak and meat :-))
haha!
HAHAHA – Everything DOES taste better on a stick! My son used to love going to the fair and getting everything in the world on a stick. He was trying to figure out a way to do soup-on-a-stick – I think bread bowls were his final idea! 🤣 These all look delightful Jenna! I’m starting with the Hawaiian Chicken and moving on from there. Thanks for all the fabulous recipes, and have a great 4th at the beach!
Thanks so much Barbara, soup on a stick would be tricky! I hope you have a wonderful 4th!
Enjoy your beach time Jenna! I have no doubt whatever you’re grilling will be tasty. 🙂 Safe travels. ♥
Thank you Mary, I am so looking forward to it!
I love the idea of all different kinds of skewers. The shrimp are calling my name. I enjoyed the tablescape with the cute mermaid!
Enjoy the beach house, and have a fabulous 4th of July!
Thanks so much Nancy! When you don’t know what to have for dinner, think kebabs!

Oh my gosh Jenna – these all look so good I wouldn’t know which one to start with first. I love kabobs, especially on the barbecue! Actually, I love pretty much anything on the barbecue lol. I’m just going to pin this page. Your painting are adorable and your table is so pretty set in all those beautiful blues. Who wouldn’t want to dine alfresco at your table. I hope you and your family have a wonderful July 4th!
Thanks so much Kim! You can never go wrong with kebabs!
So much better than eating out–especially when several pitch in to help!
I agree! Thanks Linda~
