1. Crispy Striped Bass with Citrus Soba: With a ginger-orange vinaigrette and fresh sugar snap peas this seafood dish screams summer. Featuring crispy-skinned fish and heart-healthy soba, this dish is sure to wow a crowd. Recommended Schmidt Brothers Cutlery: 6-inch Boning Knife (found in Zebra Wood BBQ 6-Piece Set). Use this knife to debone the fish (if it is not already deboned when purchasing). 
2. Shrimp Salad Rolls: This recipe for shrimp salad rolls contains fresh flavors, including lemon and dill, and is as easy as can be. For this recipe, you can use fresh or frozen shrimp, or you can poach the shrimp yourself if you wish. Recommended SBC knife: Artisan, 8-inch Chef’s Knife. 
3. Smoky Barbeque Ribs: These ribs start in the oven but end on the grill and are coated in a smoky homemade barbeque rub. Serve these with grilled vegetables and/or potatoes, to let the ribs take center stage. Recommended SBC knives: 11-inch Brisket (Slicing) Knife and/or 10-inch Butcher Knife (found in Zebra Wood BBQ 6-Piece Set). 
4. Grilled Spatchcock Chicken: This grilled spatchock chicken is made with lemon, garlic, and parsley, making it light and delicious. To spatchcock a chicken, we recommend using a pair of Forged Stainless Steel Kitchen Shears and an 8-inch Chef’s Knife. 
5. Grilled Corn with Mexican “Street Style” Topping: This grilled corn recipe is as easy as can be! Grill the corn as you normally would, then spread on the delicious topping that consists of mayonnaise, chili powder, cotija cheese, lime, and cilantro.
