For this Fourth of July menu we rounded up some old and new favorites. The menu is relatively low-effort, as far as big holiday meals go. The potato salad and bars can be made the day before, leaving just the burgers, corn and salad for the day of.
Independence Day menu:
- Smash Burgers
- Almost Classic Creamy Potato Salad
- Boiled Corn With Chile-Lime Salt
- Sesame-Garlic Spinach Salad
- Red, White and Blue Bars
Smash burgers are having a moment and with their frilled, crispy edges and perfectly seared tops and bottoms it's easy to understand why. In addition to their excellent flavor, they cook quickly and the smash technique reduces shrinkage so no one will be channeling a certain little old lady from the 1980s asking "Where's the beef?" If you want to make these on a grill, you'll need a flattop or a skillet to prevent the meat from getting stuck in the grate.
