Think Outside the Bun: 4 HoneyBaked Alternatives to Burgers & Dogs for July 4th

Independence Day is right around the corner... Are you ready to go out with a bang?!

Rather than serving up traditional burgers & hot dogs for July 4th this year, think outside the bun for a change (and by that we mean, with your favorite picnic staples from HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville )!

Since there's no actual written rule that says you absolutely must have burgers, hot dogs, chicken or sausage links when you fire up that grill this holiday... this is a great time for you to try something different on the "barbie." 

Here are a few of our favorite items we think would be perfect for your patriotic gathering: 

1. Complete Mini Ham Brunch. This all-inclusive meal package is specially made for the holidays and comes with the sweet, tantalizing aroma for FREE! Includes our classic HoneyBaked Ham, thick-cut peppered bacon and golden brown pancakes to draw everyone to the table for a delicious 4th of July mid-morning feast.

2. HoneyBaked Ham Trio. This 3-item gourmet combo is ideal for foodies as well as those who may not have time to cook before your get-together. Trio includes a sweet & succulent spread of HoneyBaked Ham and two of our signature sides-- Sweet Potato Soufflé and Green Bean Casserole.

3. Barbecue Pork Ribs.They're an old fashioned favorite! Our fully-cooked Barbecue Pork Ribs are tangy and fall-off-the-bone tender... Be sure to have plenty of napkins handy for this entree!

4. Rack of Pork Loin Chops. Our subtly smoked, juicy portions of Pork Loin Chops are a uniquely delicious centerpiece to add flair to your red, white & blue-themed affair. Did we mention they're hassle-free too? All you do is heat, serve & enjoy!
