A long, glorious grilling season is one of the great pleasures of living in SoCal. It’s deeply satisfying to grill food over an open fire, of course, but it’s also about lapping up the fresh air and sunshine. If we’re not working, we want to be hanging out on the patio in our shorts and flip-flops for as much of the day as possible, including mealtimes.

This collection is meant to get you out on the patio — and keep you there for the whole evening. It’s got everything you need from an appetizer of grilled shrimp and sweet, tangy romesco to a dessert of brown sugar grilled peaches. We’ve included plenty of protein options too.
