You have to love all of the declared “National Days” and “National Months” that involves food – especially when it comes to grilling and BBQ! As it turns out, May is loaded with tasty celebrations including it being both National BBQ Month and National Hamburger Month!

That means it is time for some grilling ideas to help you celebrate! Here are FOUR TASTY grilling and BBQ suggestions to help you celebrate!

First! Check out the BBQ Dragon Extra Large Combination Rib and Roast Chicken Rack!

The BBQ Dragon Extra Large Combination Rib and Roast Chicken Rack is perfect for ribs, or flip it for grilling whole chickens!

No. Four – Sour Cream Burger

You can add some bonus flavor to your hamburgers with the addition of spices, rubs, chopped onions, and more. But – you can also use sour cream! All you have to do is add a few spoonfuls of sour cream to your ground beef before forming your patties. The addition makes for an extra juicy burger! Some people add in some Italian seasoning as well for what could be considered a “traditional” sour cream burger.

No. Three – Add Wood Smoke to your Covered Grill

Charcoal is fantastic for grilling flavor but so smoke from wood chips. If you don’t have a smoker or a pellet grill then simply use the BBQ Dragon Smoke Box! It’s perfect for using with hickory chips – or the wood of your choice. And, you can also use it with pellets! It’s sturdy, works quickly, and can be used over and over again.

No. Two – Grill Something Different!

Hey, we love burgers, steak, seafood, bratwurst, pulled pork, and just about anything else you can toss on a grill. But… sometimes it’s fun to try something different! That includes the delicious prospect of slow grilling a whole roast! We took a recipe designed for the oven and turned it into a BBQ Fresh Sirloin Tip Roast grilling dish! Check out the complete recipe HERE.

No. One BBQ Dragon Tip – Enjoy!

Fire up the grill and enjoy! That’s probably the best tip we can offer. It does not matter what’s on the menu – enjoy the moment and take the time to relax with family and friends. You can also sit back while slow grilling that roast and think about the BBQ Dragon tools you want to add to your grilling toolbox!
