Idaho’s signature late sunsets are one of the best parts of summer in the state. They mean that just about anytime is the right time for firing up the grill and inviting friends over for a cookout.
At one point, my husband was a LEGEND at our old apartment complex. When we invited friends over to swim, he always went BIG at the grill. We’re talking about grilling up not just enough food for our friends, but enough to feed pretty much any neighbor who wandered down to the pool deck while we were there. If it looked like we were running low, he’d make a trip across the street to Albertsons to make sure everyone left with a full stomach.
It wasn’t just the amount of food he served that made him a legend, it was what he was serving too. I can’t remember what inspired him to do it for the first time, but his signature dish became bacon wrapped hotdogs and the neighbors figured it out rather quickly…
