BBQ Weekend

Posted by pqcompass
May 23, 2012

Memorial Day Weekend means it’s BBQ time.  Whether you’re the host, the guest, the Grillmaster or the SweetiePie, here are just a few things to get at the farmers’ market (3pm-7pm, 8th St., b/w D and E, NW) tomorrow to add some extra flavor to this weekend’s feast.

Nibbles for those early guests:  A selection of cheeses from Everona Dairy  and Clear Spring Creamery with charcuterie from Red Apron Butchery.

The best-tasting, locally raised meats from Evensong Farm or Gunpowder Bison.  (Tip: top your Bison burgers with sautéed mushrooms from The Mushroom Stand)

Don’t forget some awesome pickles from Gordy’s Pickle Jar.

To finish it all off, fresh-picked, local, seasonal fruits like strawberries, blueberries and cherries from Black Rock Orchard  or Sand Hill Farm.  (Tip: My favorite Summer dessert is fresh berries with Angel Food Cake and whipped cream.  Yum!)

Be sure to say thanks to the hostess with a custom made bouquet of flowers from Wollam Gardens.

 

Have a fabulous and delicious weekend!
