Lamb shoulder: not just for braising! For this grilled lamb recipe, separating the shoulder into a few smaller-size pieces before marinating makes it less unwieldy on the grill and allows you to monitor the internal temperature more easily.

While you can use any green you like, a mix of tender and sturdy ones—some bitter and some hot—gives the best balance to the final dish.

It may seem like blasphemy to toss brisket onto a hot grill; but this method for thinly sliced, marinated meat results in flavorful, juicy steak strips for everyone.

If you've ever had kalbi at a Korean barbecue restaurant, you've had grilled flanken-style short ribs. Look for them prepackaged in the meat case, or ask your butcher. This concentrated, aromatic, spicy-sweet chile paste seasons the ribs robustly in as little as 15 minutes.

Firm, thick swordfish steaks can handle being cooked over medium-high heat like a steak. An even higher temp chars the leeks so that they're smoky outside and sweet and juicy inside.

Grilling a whole fish doesn’t have to be daunting, especially if you use this turning method to minimize the risk of tearing the skin. Lay the fish horizontally across the grill grate with the top fins toward you and cook.

Take your cast-iron pan to the grill for this classically flavored crispy fish sandwich recipe (or, if you don’t have a grill, fire up the stove—the breeze won’t be the same, but the sandwich will still be delicious).

Cooking the beans with all the dried spices leaves you with an intensely flavorful broth that’s just as delicious as the beans themselves. Keep the beans submerged in the broth in the refrigerator so they won’t dry out; plus, they’ll continue to soak up all that flavor.

The secret to this pasta salad? Dress it twice. The pasta absorbs the first round of sauce completely, while the second dose keeps it glossy and bold. Walnuts and breadcrumbs add the perfect crunch.

Toss a few extra cobs on the grill at your next cookout and stash them to make this smoky corn salad later in the week.

An oil-and-vinegar dressing keeps this slaw from feeling heavy and greasy, and the spiciness is a good counterpart to sweet notes in barbecue sauces and glazes.

This puréed charred-tomato salsa gets a silky texture from the tomatoes and is as good with chips as it is splashed over tacos.

Let this recipe be the excuse you need to dip all your farm-fresh foods into garlicky mayonnaise.

When the farmers' market delivers you fresh, tender, sweet-and-not-starchy beans, don’t bother to blanch them. A short stint under the broiler softens them and imparts a light char while maintaining their snappy texture.
