Instead of the traditional burgers and hot dogs, we decided to look up the founding fathers' favorite foods and cook that for 4th of July dinner.
We made smoked turkey breast for Ben Franklin, had green beans and pineapple for Jefferson, rolls for Madison, mini apple pie for Adams (and almost all of the others), cherry crumble for Washington, and ice cream for Hamilton. We also had mashed potatoes and smoked up some sausage and "shotgun" shells too. (Those are a manicotti noodle stuffed with a sausage/cream cheese/jalapeno mixture and wrapped with bacon).
We also had angel food with strawberries and blueberries for our red/white/blue dessert.
