Our meat mantra? A grilled steak is only as good as its marinade. That’s why we created the perfect sweet and savory steak baste with a dose of mayonnaise to keep everything moist.

5. Mexican-Style Corn
A Mexican street food staple, Elote (grilled corn) is also the ultimate summer side. Our Mexican-Style Corn recipe uses traditional ingredients like chili pepper, cotija cheese and fresh lime for a bright mix of flavors and mayonnaise and sour cream for a delightfully creamy coating. This flavorful dish may be considered a side, but it will certainly steal the spotlight at your next BBQ.
