 Ready to fire up the grill? On today’s Delaware County Today with Steve Lindell, we welcomed Shanisty Ireland—grill master, foodie, and all-around summer hostess expert! 
She shared her best tips for the summer cookout season—from prepping your meats to making sure guests don’t show up empty-handed (we’re looking at you, “I’ll bring the potato salad” guy ).
Plus, Steve discovered a surprise package of pork rinds outside the studio… courtesy of Shanisty herself! Turns out, pork rinds are the ultimate keto-friendly snack (and even make a great breadcrumb alternative ).
