As the weather turns warm, homeowners across America start preparing for summertime fun: dragging the grill out of storage, cleaning off the lawn furniture, opening the pool, and visiting the hardware store for everything from lawnmowers to bug zappers.

From Memorial Day through Labor Day, Americans love to cook for family and friends – whether it’s a backyard barbecue, a company picnic, a clambake on the beach, or marshmallows around the campfire. Whatever the occasion, we love to get together and enjoy good company and good food.
