July is the perfect month to hit the grill, and this menu offers up a bevy of recipes to get you started. A smoky starter of Grilled Corn Salsa is ideal for summer entertaining, paired with tortilla chips and Mexican beer.

My "Secret" Baby Backs are no longer a family secret, and the recipe will help you turn out perfect ribs without spending hours over the grill. Add sides of Chile Cheese Rice and Corny Coleslaw, you'll have a barbecue that just can't be beaten.

Finish the meal with some of summer's seasonal peaches, served up in quick Peaches Foster with easy Pecan Shortbread and store-bought vanilla ice cream.
