Picnic and Cookout Recipes

Picnics and cookouts provide an opportunity to impress your friends with these simple potluck recipe ideas. Having a collection of easily portable dishes is a must-have for summer fun.

Southern potato salad is a classic picnic food, and easy lemon bars are the ideal take-along dessert. If you’re firing up the grill, baby back ribs are perfect. And pulled pork sandwiches are always a winner.
