Make Ahead Labor Day Feast

Dilled Coleslaw

Dilled Coleslaw

Linda Larsen
All of the recipes in this menu can be made ahead of time; in fact, they will taste best if you do make them ahead of time. I love the ribs in this menu; because they are completely cooked before they are grilled, they are tender and juicy. They're grilled just long enough to heat them through, caramelize the barbecue glaze, and give them great smoky flavor.

Make Ahead Labor Day Grill Menu

  • Make Ahead Grilled Ribs
    Ribs are delicious and tender with the perfect caramelized crust. Yum.
  • Dilled Coleslaw
    This salad looks simple, but it's so much more than the sum of its parts. It's cool and flavorful.
  • Fresh Corn Salad
    Best made with fresh corn cut off the cob, this salad is so good, but in a pinch frozen corn will do. At any rate, it's delicious!
  • Brown Sugar Meringue Bars
    These bars are easy to make and will be gone in a flash because they're so good.
