32 The Courier sun • father’s day • JUNE 5, 2014 for breaking news visit www.couriersun.com f a ther’s day ▶ There are four distinct seasons in the United States: the holiday season, road construction season, hunting season, and what some argue is the best season of all, grilling season. What was once a special event for summer holidays has turned into a regular activity for millions of Americans. Yes - it’s time to coax those smoky succulent flavors from your favorite meats and relax with friends and family. Peak grilling season starts with Memorial Day and goes through the football season, according to a survey from the Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association (HPBA) The Fourth of July tops the list of favorite grilling holidays at 77 percent, with Memorial Day and Labor Day close behind (around 60 percent). Father’s Day is also a big day for grilling. Why is grilling so popular? Food flavors are uniquely enhanced when grilled. It’s become even more popular since Food Network stars like Bobby Flay have elevated grilling to new heights, providing great options for getting the most flavor out of every kind of meat. There are many grilling guides and grilling apps to help you maximize flavors and get the most out of your meats at www.kansascitysteaks.com. Grilling is also easy. You need food and fire, plus a few essential utensils. You don’t necessarily need fancy equipment to get great grilling flavors. Just let the flames do the work. Grilling can also be healthier because it reduces the amount of saturated fat you consume. Throw in spices, marinades and rubs to enhance flavors. Of course, it’s always important to use great cuts of meat for the best results. HPBA says that burgers, steaks and hot dogs are still at the top (at more than 80 percent each), but chicken is fourth among the most popular foods for the grill. Premium steaks, burgers and hot dogs are some of the best-selling items during peak grilling season at the Kansas City Steak Company. From wet-aged filet mignon to USDA prime ribeyes and Kansas City strip steaks cut from premium, hand-trimmed, perfectly marbled beef are perfect for grilling. Whether you’re preparing for a big family gathering, like Father’s Day, or a quick and easy evening meal, it’s always a good idea to have a few go-to items in the freezer. Other popular items to have on hand for any grilling occasion are steak burgers and all beef hot dogs. More flavorful than traditional hamburgers and hot dogs, they’re favorites every year - learn more at www.kansascitysteaks. com. So, as grilling season goes into high gear this summer, get ready to grill with flair. Fire up the grill, invite a few friends over and let your grilling style shine.
