Easter Grilling Menu

When it comes to the holidays, the stress and the mess of cooking for a large group of friends and family can be too much to handle. The kitchen, a natural gathering point for guests and virtually any function, quickly becomes unmanageable as the oven and burners quickly become overloaded and the counters are covered with countless dishes in progress.
