It feels like the summer holidays keep rolling along, with Memorial Day already being 3 weeks in the rearview. Now that Father’s Day has passed, we shift our focus to the celebration of America, the 4th of July. We’re going to show you how to make sure you do it right!

Omaha Steaks: Burgers & Franks

Don’t let the name fool you–Omaha Steaks offers a lot more than just their delicious red meat. Chicken, pork, seafood, you name it. Today we’re going to focus in on the burgers & franks section, for obvious reasons.

They offer some great packages on their site. The one I would recommend is the 32 burgers and 32 dogs for only $159.99 with free shipping. Usually $440, this is a massive discount. Take a look for yourself on their site!

Raymour & Flanigan Outdoor Furniture

The great thing about Raymour & Flanigan is that they have something for everyone. Whether you’re in the market for a few comfy chairs or an entire outdoor dining table set, you can find all sorts of styles and prices for what you need.

The importance of outdoor furniture cannot be overstated. Sometimes I leave an outdoor gathering and I try to think of what made it so great. A lot of times you don’t even realize how significant the difference is between a plain old folding chair and a genuinely comfortable outdoor sofa.

BBQ Gear from HexClad

HexClad has recently expanded their offering for the summer, including a new 8-piece BBQ tool set for $99. People underestimate the value of high-quality tools until they’re left without them. A good set is an investment that pays itself back within one summer.

I also wanted to mention their apron, as well as some of the other apparel products on their site including hats, oven mitts & more. It’s not always about the beautiful cookware sets, HexClad also handles the little details.

Celebrate the USA however you see fit, whatever that means to you & your loved ones. Weather permitting, it’s always a happy day to be spent outside eating good food, swimming and whatever else you love to do. As always, happy cooking!
