Steak, hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken are the meats that are most commonly char-broiled. Cooking over charcoal is not easy, however, and many times the meats are burned because the grill is too hot. Sometimes shish kebab is prepared over the grill. Small chunks of meat, onions and green pepper are skewered on a long metal pin which is called a skewer.
Another favourite summertime food, often served at a cookout, is freshly picked corn on the cob. The green covering (the husk) is stripped off and the cob with kernels of corn (an entire piece of corn is sometimes called an ear) is dropped into boiling water. When it is ready, butter is spread on the corn and it is salted. The corn is then held at the ends with the fingers and the kernels are stripped off in mouthfuls, until only the cob remains.

Every country has its drinkable habits. Most countries also have a national drink. In England the national drink is beer, and the pub is a peculiarly English institution. At tables round of usually not very large room people will be sitting and in front of each person you will see a pint or half-pint mug of beer or fruit juice. This room is called the bar, but the same term is used for the great counter of polished wood dominates one end of the room. At their bar people will be standing again with a drink, either in their hand or on a beer-mat. From time to time they will make a sip – for Englishmen sip their drinks – and then put down the mug to continue conversation. There is a general atmosphere of warmth and cosiness. Comfort is essential, for here people do not drop in for a quick drink and go. They generally want to ‘make an evening of it,’ talking to friends or stranger, until closing time.

Strawberry shortcake is a favourite summertime dessert. The cake is sliced in half, and partially crushed strawberries are placed between the two halves and on top. Cream that has been beaten into a light, smooth topping – whipped cream – is added to the top. Another summertime favourite is a scoop of ice cream in a dish, served with a strawberry or chocolate topping, and sometimes with nuts and whipped cream – the popular sundae.

There are different variations of eating outside. One, of course, is the picnic. Food is packed in a basket, drinks are brought in a cooker, and the family goes to the countryside for the afternoon.
The clambake is a special kind of cookout that originated on the Eastern seashore. A fire is built in a pit, and rocks in the pit are heated. The rocks are covered with a layer of seaweed. The clams, lobsters, and other seafood are put on the top of the seaweed and the whole thing is covered with a heavy cloth to keep the heat and moisture in and bake the seafood.
The barbecue – made famous in the American West – is a cookout where a single large piece of meat such as a side of beef is roasted on a spit over on open fire. The spit has a handle, and it is turned slowly as the meat roasts. Special barbecue sauces are often applied to the meat as it roasts.

International, or “ethnic”, dishes have become popular with Americans in recent years. Of course, Americans cook them their own way. The French might not recognize the croissants served at McDonald’s, for example. And indeed, throughout US history, certain foreign foods have become all American favourites, pizza comes from Italy, and the first fried chicken in America was probably cooked by Africans.
Tabbouleh is not so popular or well known as pizza. But some Americans like it because they consider it a health food: it is made from only natural, not processed foods. More and more Americans are interested in foods that have spent more time at the farm than at the factory.
