We don't mark our Seasons here in New Orleans using temperature changes. The truth is that it will be hot (really really hot) for probably three more months in my hometown. We don't have a true Fall and our Winter is always very mild. We note season changes using other factors. Summer into Fall is usually the end of SnoBall Season and the beginning of College Football, we work with what we have ;-) So even though we won't have to retire our grill anytime soon, I feel like my days for recipes like these are getting numbered. Especially since this has been the frequent scene around my house:
