Get out the grill! Welcome back BBQ season with lots of vegetarian options, burgers, chicken, and even dessert

Welcome back to BBQ season! In celebration of its return, and our desire to spend as much time as possible outside this summer — cooking and dining, included — we've compiled a list of our best recipes to take to the grill. Maybe you've got a public grill in a park nearby, or a portable one to take to picnics (check for rules and permit requirements!). Or maybe you're lifting the cover off your barbecuing beast in your backyard! In any case, you're probably ready and eager for a fresh season of searing and the promise of al fresco cooking after so much cooking and eating at home. 

We have techniques for grilling corn (don't bother boiling!) and other vegetables better, including lettuce.

And don't forget about whole fish like sea bass or branzino, here's how to clean and fillet a whole one at home. 

Below you'll find inspiration for all of those along with recipes for burgers, seafood, ribs, and even a sundae made better with the BBQ.
