    Summer is almost here and that means grilling season has started. If you love grilled food and are ready to heat up that grill, check out our top grilling recipes that are super tasty and easy to make. 

    A collection of grilling recipes for summer.

    Have you been looking forward to spending your time in the backyard by the grill? If you're like me, you probably are feeling giddy and excited about the sunny weather and are planning your whole summer grilling situation. Well, let's not waste time and get to business! 

    Top summer grilling recipes

    When it comes to grilling recipes, the marinade which you use to flavor the meat is absolutely important. You can use so many different marinades and they can be store-bought or homemade. I personally always prefer homemade because you can control the amount of salt and sugar and make it with any flavors you like. 

    Grilling might seem intimidating but once you do it a few times, you will see how simple and easy it is. These summer grilling recipes will show you how to grill chicken, beef and veggies. All you need to do is marinade the meat for 2 to 8 hours (except for fish and shrimp) and grill them. It's simple, easy and amazingly tasty. 

    Gas or charcoal grill?

    This is definitely a matter of personal preference. While gas grill is definitely quicker and easier to prepare and heat, charcoal grill gives that nice smokey flavor to the meat that makes it exceptional. Make sure to always clean the grill before heating it up.
