Some summer days are just too nice to spend indoors sweating over a hot stove. So slap on that sunscreen, bust out the coals, and get ready for grilling season with Seward Co-op. From backyard Pride parties and Juneteenth BBQs to searing a thick steak for dad on Father’s Day or kicking off the 4th of July weekend with a burst of sizzling flavors, there’s no shortage of reasons to get grilling…but who said you needed one? Our stores have what you need to host a bustling summer soirée or a relaxed dinner al fresco on the patio any night of the week.
Have a Sizzling Summer with Seward Co-op
A Bounty of Burgers
Few things are as satisfying in summer as a burger—meat or veggie—hot off the grill, and we’ve got what you need to get cooking. To lessen your prep on busy summer days, try Trempealeau Walnut Burgers, found in our freezer section. These meatless burgers are beloved by vegetarians and omnivores alike. For the meat eaters, look no further than the Meat and Seafood counters at both stores where you can find Seward-made burger patties hand-formed by staff with 80/20 grass-fed Blooming Prairie beef. If you want a flavorful twist, lean into lamb with our Seward-made Mediterranean Lamb burgers flecked with zippy red onion, tangy feta, and cooling mint.
Want to make them yourself? Find bulk Blooming Prairie ground beef, Wild Acres ground turkey, and Kadejan ground chicken at the Meat and Seafood counter, with Eichten’s ground bison chubs in the meat freezers nearby. If you’re looking for a veggie option, blend up a few cans of Field Day organic black beans with fresh herbs from Produce and dried spices from the Bulk section to customize them to your palate.
Sumptuous Sausage Selections
Nothing screams summer like a weenie in a bun. Fortunately, Seward Co-op is stocked up on sausages for all your future grilling goals. For a local treat, try the classic flavor of Seward-made Bratwurst prepared in-house by talented Seward Co-op staff. Or if you’re skipping the pork, Seward-made Lamb Merguez sausages feature a bit of harissa heat, garlic, fennel, and paprika stuffed into a sheep casing. Craving a classic hot dog? We have plenty of options for juicy, all-beef hot dogs from 1000 Hills, Applegate, and Organic Valley. Try them all to find your favorite today.
You Got Buns, Hun?
It wouldn’t be a real cookout without the buns. Stock your next cookout with local Rose Street Patisserie and Baker’s Field buns. Gluten-free? While not local, Udi’s is a perfect option for those avoiding gluten.
