Even though summer is justifiably over, September still holds some nice Indian-summer weather for one last barbecue! If you're the type who likes to hold out the "freedom" weather for as long as you can, serve these with homemade potato salad and fresh quartered tomatoes marinated in basil, onions, and garlic-linfused balsamic vinegar. Yummy;)
