This cookout board for 2 includes burgers, hot dogs and all of the sides served at any summer get together, just scaled down.
The cookout board for 2 is a fun way to celebrate for empty nesters, young couples, or other small groups of people. My husband and I have a large family with 8 children, their spouses, and 15 grandchildren. Anytime we are all together, it is a big event, and involves lots of food. On some holidays, it is just my husband and I. We still try to celebrate the holidays as usual, so creating these food boards for 2 works out great.
There will still be some leftovers, but they will be eaten the next day. I am including the recipes for the sides on my cookout board for 2.
IDEAS FOR THE COOKOUT BOARD:
Start by fixing 2 hamburgers and 2 hot dogs. Add the cheese, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, and condiments. A spread that looks like this makes the holiday feel special.
Here is the recipe for our HOMEMADE HOT DOG SAUCE
I make the full recipe and freeze when we are not going to use. It freezes very well. Place it in containers that would be used on 4 hot dogs. If you have company, just thaw out more containers.
Prepare 2 eggs for BASIC DEVILED EGGS
My husband always like to have a few extra, so prepare the number you will need.
