Happy Independence Day from Grit! And hey, if that calls for a drink, break out the cocktail shakers—we've got delish chilly recipes to stir things up. Huck Finn anyone?

Whatcha cooking tomorrow? Not sure? We've got Firefly sweet tea bourbon-flavored ribs, an over-the-top patriotic dessert, and fish tacos here. PLUS! A Grit giveaway you'll want to see (and drink...)

What in the hell is a Megabanger Garden in Spring? It's part of Grit's rowdy rundown of MUSTS for the 4th, including show times, the best and worst flag swimsuits, and a wicked sweet surfboard
