By Laura Araujo
his month is the perfect time to eat out—outside that is! In my family, we love grilling out. We use the grill year-round, but when it starts to get warmer, we cook outside even more often. It helps us keep the house cooler on those hot afternoons—plus grilling

means fewer after-dinner pots and pans to wash. When we’re entertain- ing, dinner on the barbecue makes things simpler. I season the items to be grilled in advance and my husband throws them on the grill just before guests arrive. June is also the month we celebrate our fathers. Try out these recipes to treat dad to a special meal! Visit Oklahoma Living’s digital edition at

Cook the onions and peppers, stirring occasionally, until caramelized–about 10 minutes. To cook the bacon on the grill, place it into an iron skillet or a disposable foil pan. Cook over medium-high, for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until browned. For the burg- ers, divide the meat into three equal portions. Form each portion into a loose ball. Use the bottom of a plate to fl atten the ball into a patty, about 5 inches in diameter. Salt and pepper the outside of the patty. Place the pat- ty onto the grill over medium-high. Cook until the burger starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the patties and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes, or un- til desired doneness. Turn the heat off and place two slices of cheese onto each patty. Close the grill and allow the cheese to soften. Remove the pat- ties from the grill. Split the buns open. Spread with bacon grease and place over low heat on the grill until light golden. To assemble the burger, start with the bottom bun, two pieces of bacon, the burger patty with cheese, a third of the caramelized onions and peppers and the top bun.
