Father’s Day Cookout



When summer rolls around we can’t help wondering why men who don’t cook a meal from October to May bring out the charcoal chimney and the tongs and look around for something that has stopped moving to slap on the grill. It must go back to Paleolithic gender roles: men hunt and women gather.

These days, starting fires and handling meat is the closest most men come to the manly act of spearing a woolly mammoth. Why not give Dad a break on Father’s Day—take away his tongs, bring him a nice cold drink, and do the hunting and the gathering.

So, girls, here’s a recipe that your man would probably never make—Grilled Vegetables and Pork Chops in Lemongrass Marinade—but he’ll love it all the same. But remember, don’t get hooked on playing with fire; he’s going to want his job back next week.
