Just a few ideas if you’re stumped for a new thing to make for Memorial Day this year. Why not swap the old hot dog and burgers for one of these?

All delicious options but that deconstructed lamb tagine is to die for! Have a great Memorial weekend.
I’m getting hungry for tomorrow. We’re having ribs, corn on the cob and watermelon, but I’d love a Merguez sausage! I wonder where I could get those in Milwaukee?
Cheers and a great holiday weekend,

That merguez looks killer. It all does, but I really love merguez and haven’t had it in a while.
Who could forget your bandeja? But I was wondering why I didn’t remember that merguez sandwich so I traced it back and see it was before I started blogging. I’m glad you reprised it! Love it with the crispy leeks. Enjoy the long weekend.
Delicious meal for the Memorial day. Hmmm, love the cassava chip on the first photo.
Wow you were doin major grillin this weekend–looks great– but just had a boring burger–yikes
that was torture
not nice
Today we’re going for easy-peasy because I’ve spent the weekend moving my mother – I just need to collapse!
But these are GREAT ideas for when I have my life back. And you two are just the best food photogs ever!
Happy Memorial Day and Jonny – when are you done with school?
unless you are coming out to ohio to make all of these for me, it is very cruel to tease a pregnant woman. very cruel indeed.
Wow chicos!!!! I would go for all!!! Your pictures are awesome! Great post :D. Have a great celebration whatever you decide to grill.
sounds good – lets do it!
This really makes me wish I HAD a grill!
Great (mostly) selection of options. I did a Beef short ribs ragu from an otherwise fabulous book and never want to look another short rib in the eye again. All in all, there’s just too much bone and gristle for the amount of actual meat. It was your last selection that inspired this. Am I crazy, or what?
hmmmm… i’m wondering if you cooked your ragu long enough? i agree w/ you about the short rib – it is too much gristle and bone. that’s why it really does need to be cooked long enough that the meat is falling off the bone (so you don’t have to do much to get it off!). the beauty of the tira de asado (bottom pic) is that it does actually have enough meat to feel like it’s worth the effort, at least to us and a whole country that eats it too. i’d say give the ole short rib another try – maybe the recipe you tried wasn’t the best? but wait until the fall/winter b/c it makes a short rib ragu worth the wait!! thanks for the comment (and no, you’re not nuts!).
Wow – now that’s a REAL hot dog! I need that at least once a week.
Unfortunately, I went to a Memorial Day party and they catered that sticky sweet BBQ goop that covered ribs, chicken, etc. Nothing like your beautiful Argentine Beef Ribs……..
All those dishes look amazing! But the Bandeja Paisa is the best….. Bandeja Paisa is my favorite food.
Gorgeous Opulent Plates
At first I was drawn to the Bandeja Paisa but
your deconstructed Lamb Tagine is giving me a heady case of the wants.
No grill here. Your post only reminds me of what I can’t have. ;-(
Hope you had an awesome holiday weekend.
They all look great but I think I’d do the lamb.
I’m coming to your house next year!
As some girlie singer wailed – Torn – is what i am
tangine or the bandeja
maybe I could have both
been in london town eating too much – my oh my you can eat well in london at present, i was really proud.
…….made up my mind..tangine
It was cooked over three hours and tender. The problem was using it for a ragu – i.e. picking out all the bone and gristle. I think that cut lends itself better to BBQ. Then each eater can do the work 🙂 Yours looks very good.
I have died and gone to food heaven.
