All of the fruit in all of the pies. Mac 'N' Cheese You need a lot of cheese and lots of macaroni. Simple. Hot Dogs Get your hot dogs, get your chili dogs, get your 'slaw dogs. Can't beat a sausage in a bun. Fried Chicken Deep fry that chicken, get it a little peppery, enjoy some crispy skin. Or head to your local fried chicken takeaway. Burgers Customise it with lots of toppings (cheese, bacon, gherkins, avocados if you're fancy). Or just go for a classic hamburger. Corn on the Cob A sure staple of Independence Day vibes - ideally grilled with that charred edge. A knob of butter. Lovely. Slaw Full name: Coleslaw. Easy to customise but carrot and cabbage is a must-do, oh and mayo, this is America after all. Steak and Ribs Meat, meat, meat! Get the BBQ and/or grill going because you need to have these in your 4th of July spread. S'mores An American campfire staple that is traditionally marshmallow and chocolate between two graham (cinammon-flavoured) crackers or cookies. The ideal dessert for your American meal.
