Plan Your Holiday Escape Millions of travelers take to the roads, rails and sky in the days surrounding major holidays.

While a large percentage of people travel miles and miles to visit with friends and family members these times of year, others use days off from school and work as prime times for vacations.

Holiday excursions can be exciting, but they may require some extra planning and patience.

Larger crowds at airports and more cars on the roads can make holiday-timed travel challenging.

Make these trips memorable by reducing travel-related stressors.

Research Thoroughly Study your travel options to determine the best way to get from point A to point B. Weigh the cost of your trip, as well as the time involved in traveling.

Driving may seem like a good idea if you don’t want to stretch your budget, but it may eat up too much of your vacation time if you’re traveling long distances.

If you will be flying, learn the airline baggage restrictions and the security measures in place at your departing airports. This makes navigating the airport that much easier.

Planning well in advance also enables you to get the best prices possible. Studies have found that those who booked tickets for domestic travel 49 days prior to departure saved the most money.

Develop a Contingency Plan Even the best laid plans can go awry. Know what to do in the event a particular rest stop or scenic spot along the way is closed or if travel plans get delayed or rerouted. Certain travel apps provide real-time updates on delays or provide gate numbers prior to arriving at the airport.

Other apps indicate which gas stations have the lowest prices or which rest stops offer the cleanest bathrooms.

Take Your Car in for a Tune-Up Drivers should make sure their vehicles are in good working condition prior to departure.

More cars are on the roads during holidays, and that means a greater potential for stop-andFor more information, call: 631.226.2636

go traffic, which can put added stress on the vehicle. Make sure your tires are properly inflated and in good condition to avoid flats or blowouts, which can delay your trip.

Pack Light Ship gifts or keepsakes ahead of time so you do not have much to lug through airport terminals or rail stations. If you must take gifts with you, wait until you arrive at your destination before wrapping them, as this makes items easier to inspect.

If you’re going on vacation instead of just a weekend getaway, you will probably return home with more items than you brought because of gifts or souvenirs. Pack an extra tote bag or an empty carry-on suitcase where you can store extra items accumulated on the trip. Otherwise, see if these things can be shipped home. It may be cheaper to ship items than to pay airline baggage fees.

Travel Off-Peak It’s often quicker and less stressful to travel during off-peak hours when roads and airports are less crowded. Off-peak hours include overnight, early morning or late evening. Red-eye flights or offpeak travel times also may be less expensive.

Travelers looking to avoid crowded roadways or airports may also want to avoid especially popular travel days, such as the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

Leave a few days before a major holiday or arrive a few days after to avoid the crowds.

Travel with Your Own Snacks Failure to eat or drink can do more than lead to hunger pangs and dehydration. It can make the body sluggish and may affect your ability to deal with minor (or major) irritations. Pack nutritious snacks and take breaks to refuel your body.

Remember Your Destination If you find holiday travel stressful, focus on the comforting thought that, once you get to your destination, you can kick back and relax. Do not overbook your trip and leave yourself time to unwind and decompress.

Clean Up After a Day at the Beach Jaunts to the beach are par for the course come summertime.

Thousands of people flock to the coasts of oceans and lakes to enjoy refreshing dips into the water and soak up some rays on the sand. But enjoyable days can turn somewhat aggravating if sand from the beach was not washed off prior to leaving the surf and sun behind.

Ensuring sand stays at the beach and isn’t tracked home may require a little patience, but it is possible to hit the beach without taking sand home.

Arrive prepared. Bring supplies to the beach that will make it easy to keep sand from finding its way into your car or home. A large trash bag, some extra towels that never hit the sand and some moist wipes to clean leftover sand off your arms and legs can help you leave the sand at the beach where it belongs. Also, establish a time to leave the beach well in advance so everyone has time to clean up.

Reserve bags specifically for the beach. Reserve bags for the sole task of transporting items to and from the beach so you are not adding to your collection of bags that have sand on them with each beach visit you make. These also can be used to store sandy kids’ toys.

Protect electronics and other sensitive items. Sand can damage phones, tablets and other electronics. Zip-top bags provide ample storage and can keep devices safe from sand that

can be lodged in crevices or can scratch screens.

Clean sand off of clothes and chairs in the parking lot. Give clothes, beach chairs and other items exposed to sand a good shake or wipe-down in the parking lot before driving home.

Give extra attention to sunblockcovered bodies. Sprinkle some cornstarch or baby powder on your skin before toweling off, as doing so can help release any sand that’s stubbornly sticking to your skin. Do not forget to wipe off sandy feet as well.

Wrap up towels and sandy items. Put anything used to wipe off sand into a garbage bag and make sure it is tied tightly. After shaking the items off in the parking lot, do so again in your yard before dropping them into the hamper.

Keep dry towels in the car. Even the most ardent cleaner may still track some sand along. Placing towels over the seats in the car will catch any errant sand. Towels also protect the seats from damp swimsuits.

Do an extra cleaning at home.

Hose down any chairs and items brought to the beach once you return home. This will dislodge any remaining sand and prevent it from being tracked inside.

Store belongings in a shed or garage. Avoid tracking sand indoors by keeping beach supplies in the garage or a backyard shed.

How Families Can Make the Most of Festival Season Summer is synonymous with many things, including festivals.

Music fans love the festival circuit because it gives them a chance to see many of their favorite musicians in a single place while simultaneously enjoying the great outdoors. Foodies enjoy festival season because they have the opportunity to try a variety of new foods in a single day or weekend without having to travel far and wide.

Festival season also tends to be family-friendly, providing families with numerous chances to spend quality time together. Festival season is even more enjoyable when parents take the time to plan their visits so their Saturday or Sunday afternoons at festivals go as smoothly as possible.

Do your homework. Festivals tend to offer an array of entertainment and cuisine, and that can be a lot to digest all at once. Parents can ensure they get everything they want out of a festival by studying the festival schedule and offerings ahead of time rather than arriving and trying to take in everything at once.

Bring supplies. Conditions can be unpleasant during summer festival season, when rising temperatures and long lines can try families’ patience. Bring enough sunscreen to ensure no one gets sunburned, and explore the festival guidelines in advance to determine what you can bring onto the festival grounds. If it’s

permissable to bring water onto the grounds, bring enough to keep everyone hydrated. In addition, bring hats and sunglasses, as well as bug spray, to keep potentially pesky insects at bay.

Explore transportation options.

Festivals can attract considerable crowds, and families who want to avoid being stuck in traffic should explore their options with regard to getting to and from the festivals they plan to visit. Use public transportation where available.

Public transportation can help families avoid potentially costly parking fees and relieve parents of the stress of navigating traffic jams. If public transportation is not available, look for free or lowcost parking lots in the vicinity of the festival.

Consider the viability of strollers. Parents who typically transport their tots in strollers may want to reconsider taking strollers to summer festivals.

Large crowds can be difficult to negotiate with strollers in tow, and parents may find strollers more frustrating than functional at popular festivals. If you must bring a stroller, leave the large jogging stroller at home in favor of a compact stroller that’s comfortable for kids and easy to push through crowds.

Summer festival season tends to be family-friendly, and parents can take certain steps to ensure the coming festival season is even more enjoyable.

Help Plants Survive Sizzling Summer Heat Many people consider summer the most enjoyable time of year, as the summer sun and warm breezes make the season perfect for rest and relaxation. But the months of June, July and August, which are often characterized by rising temperatures and stifling

humidity, can be tough to endure as well.

When summer heat becomes especially uncomfortable, humans can simply head indoors and beat the heat in air conditioned buildings and homes.

Plant life is not so lucky, and homeowners may need to take steps to help the plant life on their properties survive the summer heat.

Monitor soil moisture. Soil moisture, or a lack thereof, can help homeowners determine if their plants are struggling to survive the heat. To check soil moisture levels, use a

ruler or even your finger, sticking either two inches into the ground where you suspect the soil is drying out. If the soil is damp two inches below the surface, then your plants are likely retaining enough moisture to withstand the heat. If the soil is dry two inches below, then you may want to give the soil a deep soak.

Keep an eye on container gardens. Containers may have an especially difficult time staying moist in the summer heat. That’s particularly true for containers that sit in direct sunlight. Water container gardens daily during summer heat waves, being sure to adhere to any local water restrictions.

Lay down mulch.

Mulch helps insulate and protect soil during summer, when soil can quickly dry out. When applied correctly (ideally before summer temperatures get too hot), mulch helps the soil conserve moisture and prevents weed growth.

Weeds can rob soil of the water it needs to promote strong root

systems, which can help plants get the nutrients they need to withstand summer heat. Mulched soils also do not experience the fluctuations in temperature that non-mulched soils can experience during summer heat waves, helping plants to grow evenly.

Move plants when possible.

Plant location can affect their chances of surviving summer heat. Driveways lined with flowers or other plants may look nice, but driveways exposed to the sun can radiate heat at temperatures that exceed the temperatures noted on the thermometer. If possible, move plants to locations on your property that are less exposed to the heat and/or less likely to be affected by the heat. Move container plants beneath trees on hot days, and consider summer heat waves before planting new flower beds.

Summer heat can be especially harmful to plant life, but homeowners can employ various strategies to protect the plants on their properties.

Tips for Finding a Great Summer Rental The growth of lodging websites such as Airbnb and VRBO has given travelers more temporary housing options than ever before. Such sites may appeal to those vacationers who want a taste of home away from home without having to pay potentially exorbitant hotel prices.

The cost savings of vacation rentals can be considerable, providing more bang for budgetconscious travelers’ bucks. But vacationers who have never strayed from the hotel/resort path may be hesitant to dip their toes into the vacation rental waters.

While travelers accustomed to staying in luxury hotels may need to adjust their expectations when booking vacation rentals, the following are some ways to find a great vacation rental that suits you and your fellow vacationers: Make a list of your lodging priorities. Popular lodging and vacation rental websites offer an array of options, so make a list of your lodging priorities so you can

find the right fit without having to peruse hundreds of listings.

If you want to save money by cooking your own meals, then a home with a full kitchen may be your biggest priority. If beach access tops your list, then you can save time by searching for oceanfront homes or condos.

If saving money is your biggest priority, then expand your search to properties further away from coastal areas or homes, but are within walking distance of local nightlife. What you sacrifice with regard to view and convenience you’ll recoup in cost savings.

Don’t pull the trigger too quickly. Low prices may tempt prospective travelers, especially those accustomed to staying in expensive hotels, to book lodging before they fully vet a property.

Fight the temptation to book a rental before you have done your homework. Learn as much about the rental as you can before booking your stay. Read reviews of the property and carefully examine the property listing so you know exactly what you are

getting. Carefully examine any photos included in the listing, and try to confirm that the property is not in foreclosure, which may pose problems when you’re ready to embark on your trip. Find out as much as you can about the property owner as well. Some are renter-friendly, while others may have poor reputations.

Determine who handles any potential problems that arise during your stay. Unlike a hotel stay when you can simply call the front desk and request a maintenance staffer be sent up to address any problems that arise in your room, you may be on your own in a vacation rental should the refrigerator go on the fritz or the air conditioning unit suddenly stop working. Determine how problems are handled before booking a rental.

Rental homes that are part of a homeowners’

association may have on-site maintenance ready to respond to any issues, while homes offered by private homeowners may come with no such benefits.

Book early if you’re attending a specific event. Hotels book up quickly on busy weekends, and so do vacation rentals. Vacation rental prices fluctuate just like the cost of hotel rooms, so begin your search early if you are traveling to attend a festival or another event that figures to attract large crowds.

Rentals can save travelers money, but be sure to find the right fit.

No matter the temperature outside or the size of the crowd around your dinner table, food safety is a concern whenever foods will be transported inside and outdoors or enjoyed in the fresh air.

While most people realize the months of May through September are prime times for the threat of food poisoning, consumers still are not practicing correct outdoor food safety procedures.

Food Safety Starts at the Store Food can spoil even before making its way into your kitchen.

When food shopping, put the cold and frozen items on your list in your cart last. This will help keep them fresher longer.

Always use plastic bags to protect other foods against raw meat or poultry juices that can leak. Bag these items together at checkout so that you’ll know to immediately put all of the perishable items away when you get home.

Some people invest in insulated, reusable tote bags that can keep cold food cold on the ride home.

Even if you use such bags, always head directly home after food shopping; do not stop along the way and leave food in a warm car where it can quickly spoil.

Safety Around the Grill Preparing foods involves avoiding cross-contamination between uncooked and cooked foods. That means switching utensils so that bacteria will not transfer from uncooked or partially cooked food to fully cooked food.

Use a cooler to keep refrigerated foods cold until it’s time to put them on the grill if you’re cooking away from home, such as at a public picnic site. Otherwise, wait until the grill is hot and ready before bringing out foods that need to be cooked.

Rely on a cooking thermometer to test the internal temperature of foods to ensure they reach temperatures that will kill bacteria or other pathogens. Hamburgers should reach 160º F and chicken breasts 165º F. When reheating fully cooked meats like hot dogs, grill to 165º F, or until steaming hot.

Discard any unused marinades so that they do not contaminate cooked foods.

Outdoor Buffet Tips Food also needs to be protected once it is served. Use ice or coolers to keep cold salads and condiments at at least 40º F. Foods should not remain outside in hot weather of 90º F or above for more than one hour. The maximum time food should be kept sitting out is two hours, says the USDA. Keep hands and utensils clean at all times. This way, you do not transfer any germs onto safe foods. If a fresh water source is unavailable, keep hand wipes or disinfecting gels at the ready to clean up before eating.

Clean Up Well Promptly clean all serving platters, utensils and cutting boards if they have been in contact with raw food juices. The FDA even recommends that you sanitize your cutting board with chlorine bleach, and replace it if the surface gets worn and difficult to clean.

Following safety precautions can help prevent foodborne illnesses.

Eat Healthy on the Go Nice weather often equates to an uptick in road trips. During such trips, motorists and their passengers will need to take breaks to refuel both their vehicles and their bodies.

Rest stop and convenience store snack options are often unhealthy, and it can be difficult for nutrition-minded travelers to find acceptable fare. But a little creativity, coupled with some smarter choices, can ensure road trips don’t derail healthy diets.

Bring food along. One of the easiest ways to eat healthy while traveling is to bring meals and snacks with you. Look for portable foods that may not require much refrigeration, such as fruit bars or trail mix. If you have room in the car for a small cooler or insulated lunch packs, fill them with fresh fruits and sandwiches. Opt for lean lunch meats like chicken and turkey. Avoid using cheese or dressings like mayonnaise that can quickly spoil. Some other easily portable foods include applesauce cups, oatmeal packets (all you need is hot water from a rest stop) and low-sodium, low-fat jerky.

Pack plenty of water, a healthier choice than soft drinks that will also keep you hydrated when sitting in the car for extended periods of time.

Find healthy fast food. If packing food is not an option or if you just prefer the convenience of getting something along the way, you can still make informed choices. Opt for foods that are roughly 500 calories or less and boast plenty

FISHFINDER II

of protein and whole grains to help you feel full longer. You may not be able to enjoy lowsodium foods, as many fast food options go heavy on the salt. Just steer clear of extra condiments that only increase those already considerable sodium levels.

Middle of Dock at Captree State Park

SUMMER FISHING SCHEDULE FLUKE 10AM-3PM • EVERY DAY

If you must opt for fast food, do not order sides of fries or chips, which will only make meals less healthy. Also, avoid sugary sodas.

Many fast food restaurants offer some healthy fare, such as grilled chicken sandwiches. Order such sandwiches plain or with extra lettuce and tomato for a healthy crunch. Order sandwiches on whole-wheat buns when possible.

Kids’ meals tend to have healthy portion sizes. If possible, purchase a kid’s meal and opt for a side of sliced apples or another healthy alternative.

Make smart choices at sit-down restaurants, too. It’s important to stay focused on healthy fare even when you pull off the highway and patronize more traditional sit-down restaurants.

Again, think smaller portions.

Consider splitting an entrée with another person in your traveling party. Some chains will offer the nutritional information right on the menu, or put a special symbol next to their healthiest offerings.

Substitute steamed vegetables for starchy or fattening side dishes and always ask for sauces to be served on the side.

It’s not always easy to eat healthy when traveling. But travelers can often find healthy fare, even if they need to bring it along themselves.

Boating Tips for Beginners recreational boating accidents that involved 672 deaths. Though boating accidents in both the United States and Canada have been on the decline, accident statistics illustrate just how dangerous it can be even for fully licensed and experienced sailors to operate a boat. That said, beginners should always practice in calm waters that don’t boast big waves or lots of fellow boaters. This gives beginners the chance to learn the feel of the boat without the added pressure of handling choppy waters or traffic.

Learning to boat or sail is similar to learning to drive an automobile.

Neither one happens overnight.

Learning to get around on the water can be exciting, but it can also be intimidating to take over the reins of a boat for the first time.

Though beginners might be apprehensive when they first start to boat or sail, there are some tips that can make it a little easier for those new to captaining their own ship: Start small. Much like teenagers learning to drive are often more comfortable learning behind the wheel of a compact car, boating beginners might be more comfortable learning to sail on a small boat. Smaller boats are easier to maneuver, making even the most nervous novice a little more comfortable.

Read the weather reports.

Veteran boaters struggle with inclement weather from time to time, so beginners should expect to struggle with adverse conditions as well. But don’t be caught off guard by bad weather.

Always check the weather reports before going out, and be sure to bring along appropriate attire and gear.

Choose calm waters in which to practice. According to the United States Coast Guard, in 2010 there were more than 4,600

Don’t go it alone. Boating and sailing come with their own

t e r m i n o l o g y, which beginners are typically unfamiliar with.

Before heading out on the water, learn as much of this terminology as possible, be it by studying manuals or books, or even asking experienced friends for help.

When taking to the water, bring those friends along.

Respect other b o a t e r s .

Boating is a hobby enjoyed by millions, and boaters should always respect that there are other people on the water as well. Whether you’re out in the middle of the ocean or relaxing at the pier on your docked boat, respect the other boaters by keeping the music

down and always discarding of trash in a responsible way. Far too many boaters or boat passengers dump their garbage over the side of the boat, so always be sure you and your passengers are respectful of Mother Nature and other boaters.

Considerations for Outdoor Entertaining Outdoor parties have a flair all their own. Entertaining outside means being able to enjoy the fresh air, sun and extra space that the great outdoors allows.

Entertaining outdoors may include intimate barbecues with friends, or weddings with hundreds of guests. While parks, yards and gardens can make beautiful backdrops for parties, hosts still need to emphasize preparation when throwing an outdoor party.

Select and Prepare the Space Many homeowners host parties for friends and family in their backyards.

Whereas other spaces, including parks, require the transport of food and other supplies, backyards offer the ultimate in convenience, allowing homeowners to cook foods in their kitchens and then carry items directly to the backyard.

Backyards are not always set up or equipped for events, and preparation will be required to turn the yard into a party-worthy

area. Plan a day for cleanup.

Remove toys, tools and debris.

Be sure the grass is mowed and clippings are removed. Address any tripping hazards and make sure there is an easy path in and out of the party, as well as to the restrooms. Take inventory of tables and seating options and rent or buy extra seating if necessary.

Provide Shade and Shelter Every party host hopes for good weather when entertaining outside, but it is best to have a contingency plan in place just in case Mother Nature does not cooperate. Awnings and patio umbrellas can only do so much, and it may be necessary to install pop-up tents or stationary gazebos to protect guests from the elements. Think about renting tents from party supply companies, which usually will erect the tents and take them down after use.

Even if the weather will be pleasant, have spots where guests can escape the sun. It can be

uncomfortable and dangerous to sit in the sun for long periods of time.

Keep Food Temperatures Consistent If you plan to offer buffet-style cuisine, arrange for serving dishes that will keep foods hot or cold as needed. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition advises that it is important to keep foods safe when entertaining outside. Cold foods should be kept in coolers or served on beds of ice. Use hot chafing dishes to keep hot foods at a serving temperature at or above 140º F. Refrigerate or refreeze foods within two hours or after one hour if it is above 90º F outside.

nuisance, but wasps and bees can be harmful, particularly if a person is allergic. Use repellent candles around the entertaining space to keep bugs away. Make canisters of insect repellent available to guests.

Home improvement centers sell bug traps to keep bees and other insects away from foods and people by using sweet lures.

Netting on tents or a screenedin area also can keep guests comfortable.

Partying outdoors can be convenient and fun. But hosts still must take steps to ensure their guests have a safe and enjoyable time.

Plan for Insects Entertaining o u t d o o r s means sharing the space with insects and animals.

Transition Your Wardrobe to Next Season People who put a lot of thought into their wardrobes know that one of the challenges presented by the changing seasons is figuring out what to wear and when. For example, as spring transitions into summer, the occasional chilly day is to be expected, removing summertime attire like shorts and sleeveless shirts from consideration.

Such sudden changes can be problematic, as not everyone has the room to store multiple seasons’ worth of clothing in their closets and drawers. Yet, with a little ingenuity, men and women can make their seasonal wardrobe transitions a little easier.

Layering: Layering is the key to keeping comfortable no matter the weather. Layering enables you to take off layers or put them on as needed. Lightweight sweaters or blazers can be worn over short sleeves or sleeveless ensembles when temperatures have yet to reach their midday highs.

Layers also can prove invaluable in office settings where the air

conditioning may make working environments especially chilly.

Leggings can be worn under skirts or dresses and then removed as temperatures rise.

Long-Sleeved Shirts: Keep a few long-sleeved shirts at the ready. Simple sleeve length can mean the difference between comfort and discomfort.

Covering shoulders and/or arms with a lightweight top also can protect against the rays of the sun. Choose among your most versatile long-sleeved shirts, meaning basic colors that will blend well with any outfit.

easy and cool for hot days and nights, but they also can be refashioned if you wear them with long sleeves or knit sweaters.

When covering up, use a waistcinching belt or scarf to add structure to the look.

Vary Shoes: While flip-flops and other sandals may be summer staples, have a few other pairs of more traditional shoes at the ready as well. One can get away with boots with a maxi-dress.

Ballet-style slippers are delicate enough for the season and provide

Transitioning clothing from one season to the next takes a little ingenuity. While it may not require a person to keep all of his or her clothing out of storage, transitioning from one season to the next may require reserving a couple of versatile items that can be worn throughout the year.

Bright Colors: Bright colors go hand in hand with warm weather.

Keep bright-colored items you typically wear during other seasons so they can be paired, if necessary, with summer staples.

This may include a thick sweater for cooler nights on the beach or trousers for formal evenings out on the town.

Maxidresses: When shopping, invest in maxidresses. They’re

lighthouses a summer guide FIRE ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE

4640 Captree Island • 631.661.4876 • www.FireIsland.com The Fire Island Lighthouse is located on the western end of the Fire Island National Seashore, between the town of Kismet and Robert Moses State Park. Visitors can access the lighthouse via a quick walk from the Field 5 parking area; from Kismet, the Fire Island Lighthouse is just a short 10 minute walk down the beach.

The Fire Island Lighthouse is the oldest and most significant landmark associated with Fire Island history. This magnificent lighthouse was built in 1857, and served as the guiding light for many European immigrants sailing into New York Harbor. The Fire Island Lighthouse Preservation Society has restored the lighthouse and it is open to the public as an observatory and museum. The lighthouse is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily during the summer, and guided tours are available. The Fire Island Lighthouse observatory offers amazing views of Long Island, the Atlantic Ocean, the Great South Bay and Fire Island beaches.

Located at the tip of eastern Long Island, the lighthouse provides unforgettable 360° views of Block Island Sound, the Atlantic Ocean and beyond.

The Montauk Point Lighthouse is the oldest lighthouse in New York State. The lighthouse was authorized by the Second Congress, under President George Washington, in 1792. Construction began on June 7th, 1796, and was completed on November 5th, 1796. It still serves as an aid to navigation. The Montauk Point Lighthouse was designated a National Historic Landmark in recognition of the property’s national significance in the history of the United States on March 2nd, 2012, by the Secretary of the Interior.

HUNTINGTON HARBOR LIGHTHOUSE 631.421.1985 • www.HuntingtonLighthouse.org

The Huntington Lighthouse Preservation Society, Inc. was formed in 1985 by concerned citizens to prevent the tear down and demolition of the Lloyd Harbor Light Station and its replacement with an automated light tower by the United States Coast Guard. The objectives of the organization are to restore, preserve and maintain the historic lighthouse listed on the National Historic Register as the Huntington Harbor Lighthouse. The organization is dedicated to ongoing preservation of the interior and exterior, and to preserve it for public use as an educational and historic resource, while maintaining its use as an active aid to navigation.

Lynn Ryan Photo by Jamie

This summer, the Huntington Lighthouse is set to go through some great changes! There will be extensive construction on the foundation, which will run through the summer tour season.

Visit www.HuntingtonLighthouse.org for continuous updates and photos as the work progresses.

Kansas City Fried Chicken While backyard barbecue menus are often dominated by hot dogs and hamburgers, hosts can expand that menu however they see fit. For example, fried chicken is a natural complement to popular backyard barbecue fare, such as potato salad and fresh watermelon.

Store-bought fried chicken can suffice in a pinch, but hosts who want to go the extra mile and offer a delicious homemade meal can prepare the following recipe for “Kansas City Fried Chicken”...

full. Heat the oil to 350º F. Set the marinated chicken next to the bowl of flour, close to the skillet. Remove a piece of chicken from the marinade, allow any excess to drain, then dredge in the flour mix. Shake off the excess flour and slide into the skillet.

Fry the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165º F. Fry the chicken in batches, being careful not to crowd the skillet and to maintain the right temperature.
