For this menu, we’ve stayed true to the time-honored fare of the mid-summer holiday: burgers, dogs, potato salad, and all the fixins’. A spectacular red, white, and blue dessert adds just the right festive end to the meal. To drink? We think iced tea and lemonade pair perfectly with this no-frills picnic, as does beer for the adults in the group.

At Picnic-Basket.com you’ll find everything you need for a great celebration, including BBQ Tool Sets and portable BBQ Grills.
