Memorial Day Menu with Southern Charm
Grilling season arrives early below the Mason-Dixon line. For Memorial day weekend, it involves pesto catfish, grilled beef, asparagus-ham bundles and rosemary biscuits—perfect for a holiday with friends.
Grilling season begins earlier and continues later in the south. Folks get really creative with their outdoor cooking, tossing all manner of meats, fish, vegetables and even fruits on the grill. To honor the first days of summer, here is a menu that offers something different, yet still familiar. Corn gets dressed up with chipotle butter, biscuits with fresh rosemary, and catfish with pesto. So if you're tired of burgers and dogs, strike up the grill for a menu that's just a little bit country.
