Whether you’re celebrating on a summer vacation or throwing a potluck with friends and neighbors, the 4th of July meal options are endless and it can be so hard to decide what to cook!

We’ve rounded up a few easy recipes and ideas using Bravado Spice products you probably already have in your pantry or that can easily be found at a store near you.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

with Ghost Pepper & Blueberry Hot Sauce

She’s an OG recipe and there’s a reason.

The sweet heat of the Ghost Pepper & Blueberry Hot Sauce compliments all the richness of the pork. Pulled pork is easier than you may think too. We use a slow cooker here because there’s nothing better than a set-it and forget-it scenario, where present-tense you gets to reward future-tense you for thinking ahead.

Pulled pork sandwiches & sliders - build with a bun of your choice (classic hamburger buns work great but we’re partial to Hawaiian and brioche) and top with creamy coleslaw, red onion, pickles or grilled pineapple.

Pulled pork tacos- serve up with warm tortillas and grilled onions for simple pulled pork tacos.

Classic Potato Salad

This fan-favorite really needs no notes. It’s a delightful spin on classic potato salad. Bright and fresh Creamy Herb & Jalapeño hot sauce adds all you really need to take your textbook potato salad into new territory.
