The weather in my part of the world promises to be perfect for fireworks, fourth of July festivities, and firing up the grill. This recipe roundup will help make your backyard barbecue the best in town. Think Coconut Caramelized Pineapple, Strawberry Shortcake Grilled Donuts and more. Enjoy your holiday with friends, family and good food! I'll be back in business after the fireworks.

Cheers to your holiday weekend. Beer is good, but a chic cocktail is always appreciated.

And this is my favorite recipe of the edit. Do click through. The images are beyond!
Half Baked Harvest
Pork and fruit are always a perfect pairing. Serve with smoky chipotle, lime, and honey for a fabulous flavor combination.
Sweet Pea and Saffron
I make Mexican corn all of the time, but never with an Aioli. This is a must try!
Minimalist Baker
If your guests are very very special, or you really have something to celebrate, serve this!
Saveur
This recipe is how you improve on classic Caprese. Grill the bread and tomatoes! Simple and so Summery.
Bon Appetit
If you haven't tried it, grilling fruit is fabulous way to bring out the natural sweet flavors. This is a light, easy but indulgent dessert.
House Beautiful
What a beautiful and fresh looking dish! It's full of Farmer's Market produce. Any grillable fish will do.
Feasting At Home
Homemade brioche doughnuts, grilled and then topped with the sweetest strawberries and whipped ricotta cream....I mean really!
Half Baked Harvest
Forget the dip sitting in the sun. Light the grill and fire up these pizzas for a crowd pleasing appetizer. Yes, please!
Williams-Sonoma
I just love lime with chicken. This recipe has plenty of it. The "ranch" is the icing on the cake!
How Sweet It Is
I may have presented this pretty potato dish before. It's back again because I want to make it this weekend! It has bacon in it, for those who love it. For my vegan friends, just omit the bacon. YUM!
Heather Christo
What's more American than Cherry pie? This is a crust lovers (like me) recipe! Beautiful, right?

If you haven't used a plank on the grill before, do try. You can get them at Sur La Table or Dean and Deluca. This recipe sounds divine.
What's Gabby Cooking
A hamburger bun is so not in my thought process. I just don't want the gluten or the carbs. This recipe is wrapped with style and collard leaves. Make it even healthier with ground turkey breast.
Anthropologie Blog
A hearty twist on the Summer staple, S'Mores. These are made with a chocolate studded biscuit. Oh My!
Food & Wine
If you have not made Chimichurri yet, start with this recipe. Another Heather Christo find on
Foodie Crush
With a brownie layer, a cookie dough layer and a marshmallow layer, I think I would sell myself for these!
