Hearty Mains

  1. 1

    Prepare the Burgers

    Form the ground beef into patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Burgers

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the beef patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

    Cook the Hot Dogs

    Place hot dog sausages on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through and grill marks appear.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    Lightly toast the burger and hot dog buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.

Tasty Sides

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potato Salad

    In a large bowl, combine pre-made potato salad with diced onions, celery, and hard-boiled eggs. Mix well and refrigerate until serving.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Coleslaw

    In another bowl, mix coleslaw mix with dressing until well combined. Refrigerate until serving.

  3. 7

    Arrange Chips and Dips

    Open the bags of tortilla and potato chips. Serve with salsa and guacamole in small bowls.
