From the aroma of ribs on the grill to the taste of freshly picked produce, summer holidays are a feast for the senses. Whether you’re cooking up an exciting new recipe or a traditional family favorite, The Fresh Market has everything you need to make this Fourth of July delicious.

If you’re short on time, we’ve got your cookout covered. Serve everything from fresh-cut fruit to decadent seasonal desserts.

All Star Cookout

Need an entrée that can handle the spotlight? Toss our fresh Baby Back Ribs on the grill for an impressive feast. We also have an expanded selection of USDA Prime beef—from Whole Beef Tenderloin to Filet Mignon. Marbling adds rich, buttery flavor your guests will love. Our USDA Prime beef is custom aged a minimum of 14 days for maximum tenderness.

You also can’t go wrong with burgers and hot dogs. Serve up our made-in-store Gourmet Burgers or all-beef hot dogs. Our Gourmet Burgers are always a hit, and ready-to-eat sides make it a fast way to feed the family. We also offer Feltman’s of Coney Island Hot Dogs, which are all-natural, nitrate-free and peppered with the Original Frankfurter Spice Blend.

Cue the fireworks—our Fourth of July desserts are as festive (and delicious) as it gets. Impress your guests with our Gourmet Fruit Tart, made with an all-butter shortbread crust and topped with a layer of light pastry cream, and then loaded with fresh red and blue berries from our produce department. We also have Patriotic Cupcakes, Brownie Bites and Red, White and Blue Cookies decorated with red, white and blue sprinkles.

All That’s Fresh for the Fourth

Fresh summer produce can add mouthwatering flavors and bold colors to your celebrations, from fresh red cherries and berries to fresh-cut watermelon. We also offer tasty entrée ideas (Red, White and Bleu Cheese Burgers, anyone?), plus bright blooms for the perfect finishing touch.

Red, White and Bleu Slaw

1Go for Red, White and Bleu

Elevate your burger or hotdog with our new recipe for Red, White and Bleu Slaw. Crunchy red cabbage mingles with homemade bleu cheese dressing for a crunchy, creamy topper you’ll want to slather on just about anything that’s hot off the grill.

2Layer the Flavor

For a festive, crowd-pleasing dessert that’s a breeze to assemble, try our Berry American Trifle, which features layers of our moist, baked-in-store vanilla pound cake, fresh strawberries and blueberries and a creamy whipped Greek yogurt topping. It tastes as good as it looks!

Sparkling Elderflower Spritzer

3Set off Sparks

Make any beverage more patriotic with sweet, ripe blueberries and star-shaped chilled watermelon. We recommend Sparkling Elderflower Spritzer. Simply slice our seedless watermelon cross-wise into 1-inch thick rounds and use a star cookie cutter to make your patriotic pieces. Chill the pieces until ready to serve, and they’ll help keep your drinks cool while also adding a hint of sweetness. You can also create fresh stirrers by stacking blueberries on a skewer and topping them off with a watermelon star.
