Fire up the grills, get the family together, and use these meals as a way to treat Dad to something delicious on the day dedicated to honoring him! The meal ideas below are sure to be crowd pleasers and they are even simple to make. Simple doesn’t have to mean plain, so don’t worry. These meals will be as impressive as they are delicious.
Steak and Potato Kebabs
What’s better than juicy marinated steak, your choice of vegetables, and golden potatoes grilled to perfection? Cooking and eating them with your happy family. These kebabs only require minimal preparation, feed many, and don’t take long to make.
Pizza Ring
Picture flakey crescent rolls stuffed with your favorite meats, cheese, and pasta sauce. This dish tastes like baked perfection and looks much more complicated to make than it actually is. It feeds lots of hungry people and who can say no to pizza?
Italian Burgers
Burgers are always a safe option, but you can dress them up a bit to make them more special. Take your favorite burgers but add a thick slice of fresh mozzarella cheese, italian seasonings, and marinara instead of ketchup to polish it off. You’ll have an elevated and unique version of the same delicious burger you know and love.
Beer Can Chicken
It may take some time to cook this feast, but it’s well worth it. Choose Dad’s favorite beer and add it to the container the chicken sits on along with herbs and spices. Then simply wait for it to bake and you’ll have a flavorful chicken inside and out. Don’t worry, it’s still great for the whole family. The beer just adds flavor and no alcoholic content to the meat.
Grilled Chicken Thighs
Chicken thighs are the juiciest and most flavorful part of the chicken. Grill, air fry, or even throw them in the crock pot to have a simple, but fulfilling meal. Customize your meal with Dad’s favorite veggies, potatoes, macaroni and cheese, or any other side your family loves to enjoy together.
