Hello Dead Meat Society,
Welcome back, meatheads. Thanks for all your support and feedback. Keep it coming.
Now, let’s see what’s on the menu today…
First up, this weekend we grill for our FREEDOM. Also, could the Weber Genesis get any more love? Plus, some killer recipes for a fried green tomato burger, smoked picnic shoulder, and a patriotic ice cream cake that’ll rock your world. Let’s get cooking.
Every week, we crown the champion of BBQ from the Dead Meat Society Facebook Group. If you aren’t sharing (and competing), what the hell are you waiting for? Join now!

That one story that will make you infinitely more interesting than your know-it-all brother-in-law. Seriously, wtf is that guy’s deal?
“Give me BBQ or give me death.”
- George Washington, probably
All Summer long, it’s like we’re playing the greatest hits of BBQ dream holidays. And just when you think it can’t get any better, along comes the one cookout to rule them all.
Happy 4th of July!
We know the Dead Meat Society will all be out there this weekend celebrating Independence Day. And just in time, we’ve got the recipes you need.
Well, to be fair, Delish has the 4th of July recipes and appetizers you need. (Credit where credit is due.)
But we took the time to point out a few we know you’re going to like…
Best Ever Guacamole - Because if there’s not guac at the party, I’m not going.
Loaded Mediterranean Sweet Potato Fries - Go above and beyond the call of duty.
Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers - American as it comes.
Big Mac Hot Dogs - There are hot dogs on the 4th… then, there’s Big Mac Hot Dogs on the 4th. Which one seems more American to you?
Grilled Beer Brats - Hot dogs not your thing? How about a beer brat? That’s a whole different vibe.
Grilled Ribs - This is what you whip out when you want the whole neighborhood to roll through.
So what do we think, Dead Meat Society? What will you be grilling to celebrate your independence?
Happy 4th to you and yours!
Like the memes you send back and forth in your group chat, except these won’t get you canceled. Oh, and lots more grill marks.

Meat & Greet
Dead Meat Society is all about community. We’re here to support and uplift the pursuit of delicious meats and the people and brands who are doing it right.
Today, let’s Meat and Greet…
Spiceology is the nerdiest (in a good way) spice-maker in the game. They’re mixing up spice combos you’ve never even thought about before. For the adventurous BBQers out there, this is what you want to be experimenting with in your backyard lab.
Check out the various (insane) combinations. Dead Meat Society, show us what you make with it: spiceology.com

Like a Paula Deen cookbook, but with less butter and more BBQ sauce.
Now we’re talking. Put a little Southern hospitality on the grill.
Give a cut of picnic shoulder a chance, why don’t ya?
We know, it’s not BBQ. But look at it. Whip this out of the freezer when your BBQ nemesis starts getting a little too cocky at the function.
Have a recipe you want to share? Submit it for next week’s Butcher’s Block.
A happy ending just for you.
That’s it for this week. If you make any of the recipes above, you’re legally obligated to send us a picture and give feedback so we can feature it next week (sorry, we don’t make the rules).
And since the only thing that is better than grill marks and ice-cold beer is grill marks and ice-cold beer with a side of dad jokes, we’ll leave this right here…
The Butcher Shop
No meat for sale. But definitely not vegan.
You asked for merch. So we cooked some up. SO much more to come.
