Way to go Neil and Amy, WINNER WINNER SERVE WITH ANY DINNER !!! Or just anytime you feel like it. You brought the North and South back together on the potato salad and toned down the heat on the baked beans and nailed the Spinach Mareia . Keep up the great recipes and prep procedures, we enjoy watching and listening to you folks. Stay safe and God Bless America !!! OLD DAWG DREAMING Fred.
That is absolutely correct ...we actually took the leftovers and made a spinach and artichoke dip...I made french baguettes with butter olive oil and garlic....at toast bites...
You did it again, Neil. You blew my mind! That potato salad looked awesome. And I could have taken that pan of spinach maria home with me and eaten it for days. Normally, I'm not a big fan of baked beans, but smoked baked beans with ground beef, onions, green peppers, and bacon? Come on! Who's not going to eat that? Wow, Neil, you outdid yourself. What's the next holiday, Labor Day? I'm coming down there!
Thanks for another terrific video. I had just put my beans for the 4th on the smoker when I saw you add bacon to the top. Just added that to my beans. To my beans I added some onion, 4 pieces of bacon that were smoked and a chunk of ham that was also smoked. There is about a cup of molasses and half cup of brown sugar. I let them smoke for about 90 minutes then turn up the heat to finish.
Dude I’m so glad I found your channel. Just got a griddle. 73.2x26.4 and the seasoning process was beating me. Think I got it seasoned good now. Thanks for the tips. Really enjoying your videos. Thanks Brother!
All 3 look so awesome! Love the spinach dip, I do one but so basic compared to yours... I'll now be upgrading! Have a safe Independence Day, and everyone better have 10 fingers on Wednesday!
As usual looks good guys!!!! We are grilling rib eyes, shrimp and scallops. My go to sides are my nearly famous beans, smoked Mac and cheese and my version of coleslaw.
Mmmmmmmm, Oh wow Neil you knocked it out of the park with those side dishes. They all looked so delicious. Hope you two have a Happy and safe 4th of July.
Great side dishes Neal. They look amazing. Really enjoyed your video. Today was my Birthday. Tomorrow the 4th of July have a wonderful day with your family.
Nice looking recipes brother! I'm a huge fan of potato salads. Yours looks great. I like the idea of cheese for a loaded salad. Nice shredded potato technique too. I've been making Japanese style potato salad lately. It's your basic tater salad with hard boiled eggs and a couple of tweaks. It uses Kewpie mayo. I go 50/50 kewpie and best foods (Hellmann's). Also it has julienned ham and julienned red and green apples. Also lots of onion. Every time I eat it, it helps me remember my mom and all her foods she instilled in us. Miss you mom... Another great video Neal. You guys are killing it and I'm so glad to see it
Looks awesome once again! Love the shirt. I'm making Turkey Smashed Burgers, Dairy Free Provolone stuffed Italian Sausage, Potato salad and Cole Slaw. Happy Independence Day!
Those beans sure looked good. And everyone likes a potato salad for a side as well. For a BBQ though for the sides, I always think of having a good homemade coleslaw and maybe some Mac salad.
I have this baked bean recipe! My Aunt Joanne gave it to me years ago, and she got it from someone else years before that! (To clue you in to how old it is, I’m 69. My Aunt Joanne is 90.) When I got it, it was on a card titled “Nonna Carson’s Baked Beans”, “nonna” meaning grandmother, so, I dunno; the ‘40s maybe? Anyhow, it isn’t EXACTLY the same, but that’s mostly proportions and riffs, and Nonna Carson wasn’t smoking hers. Here are the ingredients: 1 lb ground beef 1/2 cup chopped green pepper 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped celery 1 clove garlic, finely minced 32 oz of canned baked beans 1 8oz can tomato sauce 1 tsp vinegar ( I used apple cider vinegar) 1 tsp dry mustard 1 small pinch thyme 1 Tbsp brown sugar And OF COURSE I always add bacon!
Great recipes Neal - Gonna try the spinach for sure , and I did like the grated potato trick ! Happy 4th to you , Amy and the girls ! We are smoking a shoulder all night tonight with tater salad and coleslaw
All of these look great. I’m not sold on the carrots in potato salad and where were the onions? I’ve never seen a potato salad with out onions. I saw the garnish of what appear to be scallions/green onions but that’s a little light for my tastes. That spinach looks righteous!!! Very rich, but righteous.
Happy Birthday America! I’ll be doing the ole midwestern bbq standard, pork steaks with a twist cooking them on the Blackstone. Side more than likely be potato salad & baked beans. No smoker so I can’t do Auntie’s baked beans. Everybody have a safe & happy 4th
They all look great, but that spinach would be the end of me. Set that pan in front of me with a bag of scoops and I'd prolly need another bag! Happy 4th to you and the whole family.
For today we took leftovers and added artichoke heats, garlic, Parmesan, cream cheese and a few other things to makes a baked dip with garlic flat croutons .
Hey Neal and Amy, all of the stuff you put together today looks great. I may try the spinach and cheese sometime. Story time and this isn't aimed at you or any of the others who do such a wonderful and time-consuming job putting out videos. I get such a kick out of people who associate a dish with a holiday like that is the only day of the year that the food cops allow it to be prepared. I think the one that sticks in my mind the most id macaroni and cheese that people have on Thanksgiving. I chuckle when a commenter says they are going to make a dish on the next specific holiday. The way their comments come through and register in my pea brain is Thanksgiving is the only day they can have macaroni and cheese. Maybe they could make it this weekend. I hope they have it on February 12th or April 27yth too. My ex-wife was and still is a great cook and we always had macaroni or potato salad in the fridge year-round like we always had milk in there too. We also may eat beef stew in August. I also believe that white shoes can be worn before Memorial Day and after Labor Day. I hope there are others out there who feel the same way I do on this subject. I also understand traditions too. I know people who put out certain dishes on certain holidays because their mother or grandmother did it that way even though no one likes or eats it now, I brings back old memories of their mother or grandmother. I look forward to many more of your videos.
All that brings me to one comment I tell people all the time...Who in the world is the oven police....Why 350...why not 347...363....413....something like that...why 275 for pork...how about 261...hahhahaha some thing
Neal and Amy, thank you for reading my comment. I really do laugh when people make a comment and a holiday. I also yell at the commentor to open their mind and try it on a different day, it may be good on that day too. Keep up the good work and thanks for letting an old guy from the beautiful rock-bound coast of Maine to make a simple one-line comment into a volume collection.
Nah, these aren’t sides, that’s the meal! Who needs meat with those dishes?! They all look delicious! I can almost smell the beans from California! Happy 4th!! 🇺🇸
Thanks a lot, now Im really frigging hungry, your such an arse haha. Just kidding man, it all looks extremely amazing. I might change out the spinach for some aldente' broccoli though

The spinach maria is great to eat on a piece of toasted baguette (cut on a bias), garliced if you wish.
That is absolutely correct ...we actually took the leftovers and made a spinach and artichoke dip...I made french baguettes with butter olive oil and garlic....at toast bites...

1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup chopped green pepper

1 clove garlic, finely minced
32 oz of canned baked beans
1 8oz can tomato sauce
1 tsp vinegar ( I used apple cider vinegar)
1 tsp dry mustard
1 small pinch thyme
1 Tbsp brown sugar
And OF COURSE I always add bacon!
Absolutely love that...recipes handed down from Gen to gen..cheers
Have a great 4th you two thanks for all your efforts ! Tim Nj.
Thanks Tim
Looks amazing. Do you have the recipes posted?
No...we are extremely behind...but I tried to verbalize the amounts in case
Next time try pork n beans. That's how my sister-in-law does it and that stuff is incredible!
Nobody can pull off that shirt like you.. Thank you for your service and GRILL KINGS Nation!!!
ahhahaha I appreciate that....
If I could eat ANY summer meal that consisted of nothing but those three dishes, I would be the happiest man in the world!!!
You aint wrong....
Those potatoes look amazing!
Also, I knew a girl named Spinach Maria once. She was cheesy too.
hahahahah name of a band...ahhahaha

Hey I appreciate that...cheers
Where did you get the clips that you use to fill the grab handle cutout on your Traeger grill?
Dollar Tree....just a cheap metal dough cutter
You guys are awsome😊
Thank you...
All of these look great. I’m not sold on the carrots in potato salad and where were the onions? I’ve never seen a potato salad with out onions. I saw the garnish of what appear to be scallions/green onions but that’s a little light for my tastes. That spinach looks righteous!!! Very rich, but righteous.
Hey thats what its all about..different things for different people...try it out...
What are your thoughts on the 22 inch portable Blackstone?
I have not used one yet....
I love beans, so I would put a dent in them beans lol
Those all look amazing. Went to your website and it can’t find the spinach Maria.
We dont make all recipes on the website...just not enough time...we voiced the recipe in this video...sorry about that...
Oh my gursh cuz. I put some smoked pulled pork in them beans too and my mouth just exploded with flavor. Happy 4th.
heck yeah...sounds good to me..
They all look good enough to eat. LOL
