Grilling Up a Haunted 4th of July


***UPDATE*** By recommendation from Ghoul Friday, let's prioritize ordering from Haunted Hot Sauce. Cool? Now, back to our previously scheduled blog post...

Cthulhu Roasting UtensilHappy almost 4th of July, everyone!

Shockingly, I'm excited for the holiday weekend (even if it does involve sun, grilling, and fireworks: all things I'm allergic to). And it got the ol' brain to whirring... how can one scare the family on such a non-pumpkiny, patriotic day?

And then I started finding cool things, such as the Cthulhu roasting utensil (no promises as to the quality of the ordering site... I haven't tried them yet). Wouldn't that be nifty to use at your weekend cookout?

And it's always appropriate to have some horrific hot sauces lying about for your friends and family to enjoy.

A quick search on amazon returned:
Pretty cool, if you ask me.

Serve refreshing bloody mary cocktails, or any kind of cool, Blavod recipe (Blavod is a black vodka... a black-vodka screwdriver is likely to unsettle any drinker you hand it to, imho).

If anyone has some additional spooky grilling ideas (I can't tell you how hard I've been working to figure out how to put some spooky, bloody body part on the grill... without having to actually have something meaty), please post them in the comments! I just can't let this Red-White-And-Blue holiday go unbloodied. :)

Bloody Mary
  • 1 1/2 ounces (1 jigger) vodka
  • 1/2 cup tomato juice
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • Worcestershire sauce to taste
  • Tabasco to taste
  • 1 celery stick for garnish
  • 1 lemon wedge for garnish
Shake together all ingredients - serve over ice with a celery stick and a wedge of lemon.
