We do quite a few cook outs every year. Ok, I may have underestimated that just a tad. We cook out pretty often, whether it be at my house or another person’s house. Sometimes we’ll just all get together at the spur of the moment and have a big feast. Summertime is definitely a busy time of the year around here!
Fourth of July is one of our biggest celebrations. A huge group of family, friends and all of their family and friends get together at a local park and make a whole day of it. We fire up the grill and cook all day as people come and go. It’s always such a great time and this year will be no exception. I can’t wait!
Sam’s Club has you covered for your Fourth of July celebration and I was able to have a preview party thanks to them. Of course, mine was a little bit scaled down compared to normal, but there was no way I could fit all those people in my yard! I chose the Traditional Fourth Celebration and it couldn’t have worked out better for us. But hey everyone’s parties differ, so check out the Gourmet, Kid Friendly, On the Go and Big Party Fourth Celebrations to see which one would fit your party style.
Sam’s Club sent me everything I needed to make my party a success including food, plates, napkins and even Croquet! It was so great because I didn’t have to cook anything but the beans since the Man does all the grilling around here! We went tubing the day of the party, so it got started a bit late the way it was. I was so glad that everything was already prepared and I just had to slice up a watermelon.
As you can see, it was already dark by the time we started eating. That sure didn’t matter much though. Everyone loved the food and for once I couldn’t really accept the compliment for making it. The potato salad was especially good and a heck of a lot cheaper than buying it from the grocer’s deli.
Those hamburger patties you see down there were just frozen patties, but with a little bit of salt, pepper and seasoning salt they turned out awesome and everyone loved them!
Our party was a huge hit and honestly the best part of it for me was not having to make much. We had plenty of leftovers too! Check out www3.samsclub.com/summer for party and menu ideas of of course some tasty recipes!
