Summer grilling season is officially underway! To help make this season extra special, celebrity chef, Melissa d’Arabian, and America’s pork producers are searching for the grill master with the greatest grilling groupies in the National Pork Board’s “Calling All Grillers with Groupies” contest. The winner will have a chance to cook alongside Melissa during the Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival this October. Nothing brings people together during the summer months like food on the grill. And what’s a griller without a little help from their grilling “groupies” – those friends and family members who serve as the sidekick, the sous chef, the bartender to the “grilltender” duties or simply someone to keep the laughs flowing freely? To help get your creative (grilling) juices flowing, Melissa offers up a few simple strategies to keep your flame a flicker all season long … all the while offering some sure-fire ways to engage your groupies and help get you on the path to NYC.
