These delightful dining experiences are among the highlights of summer, and when it comes to summer cooking, Renfro Foods is the ultimate choice! As we dive deeper into barbecue season, I’m excited to share some of my top picks to elevate your summer culinary adventures.
Relish Your Summer with Renfro Foods
Mrs. Renfro’s relish transports me back to the joyful summer picnics of my childhood in the 70s, reminiscent of my Aunt Kay’s delightful homemade version. This sweet and tangy blend of corn, onion, sweet pepper, and cabbage elevates any meal, making it the ideal topping for hot dogs, hamburgers, and sausages, far surpassing the usual mustard and ketchup. Plus, with Mrs. Renfro’s corn relish, you’re adding an extra serving of vegetables to your plate, which is always a win in my opinion!
I have a passion for salads—whether it’s a crisp lettuce salad, a hearty pasta salad, or a comforting potato salad, I enjoy them all. In the summer, pasta salad becomes one of my go-to dishes. It pairs wonderfully with grilled chicken or hamburgers, and it can even stand alone as a satisfying meal. I discovered that adding Mrs. Renfro’s corn relish to my pasta salad creates a delightful flavor boost.
This relish is also fantastic on grilled fish, salmon, and pork chops. It truly shines at breakfast, enhancing fried eggs, and makes a great addition to baked potatoes at dinner. For a quick snack, it pairs perfectly with tortilla chips.
Mrs. Renfro’s Mild Chow Chow
Mrs. Renfro’s mild chow disappears quickly in our home! This delightful sweet relish is crafted from a generous selection of fresh vegetables. The combination of cabbage, onion, sweet pepper, vinegar, and pickling spices makes it an ideal condiment for burgers, hot dogs, and sausage dogs, or as a flavorful addition to summer salads. Personally, I love mixing it into Mann’s slaw with KRAFT Sun Dried Tomato Vinaigrette dressing. This combination delivers a sweet flavor with a subtle kick from the sun-dried tomato. Additionally, Mrs. Renfro’s mild chow serves as a fantastic topping for fish, beef hoagies, baked potatoes, or even alongside fried green tomatoes.

Summer Grilling with Renfro Foods
Your barbecue is calling for a flavor upgrade with Mrs. Renfro’s latest barbecue sauces. If you’ve enjoyed Mrs. Renfro’s BBQ Sauce in the past, you’ll find even more to love with four exciting new updates. The sauce is now gluten-free, high fructose corn syrup has been eliminated, and two bold new flavors have been introduced: Mrs. Renfro’s Chipotle BBQ Sauce for a medium kick and Mrs. Renfro’s Ghost Pepper BBQ Sauce for those who crave heat.
While I prefer milder flavors, I’ve been using the classic BBQ Sauce from Renfro Foods to enhance my pork chops, fish, grilled chicken, and steak this summer.
My husband, a steak enthusiast, never skips marinating his steaks. The combination of Kraft’s Italian dressing with its herbs and spices, paired with the smoky richness of Mrs. Renfro’s BBQ Sauce, creates a mouthwatering flavor profile. Cooking steak over an open grill elevates the experience even further. For the perfect beef marinade, mix equal parts of Italian dressing and BBQ sauce. Keep Mrs. Renfro’s BBQ Sauce and Kraft’s Italian dressing stocked for your summer grilling adventures.
With its tangy and robust hickory flavor, Mrs. Renfro’s BBQ sauce is a must-try for anyone looking to elevate their grilling game. Don’t miss out on these delicious sauces!
Mrs. Renfro’s Peach Salsa
Mrs. Renfro’s Peach Salsa is a versatile delight that pairs wonderfully with chips or enhances the flavor of grilled salmon, chicken, or pork chops. We’ve discovered that mixing it with whole wheat rice, bell peppers, and lean ground beef creates a fantastic meal. Personally, I enjoy it on my grilled salmon, even though I’m not typically a fan of the fish. Additionally, Mrs. Renfro’s Peach Salsa makes an excellent vegetable dip; it complements green peppers, carrots, and celery beautifully. For a more sophisticated touch, try it with toasted baguettes or pitas. It also serves as a refreshing dressing for a tossed salad. Remember, salsa is the ultimate summer dip! Available in 16-ounce jars, Mrs. Renfro’s Salsa is priced around $3.69, varying by retailer, and can conveniently be ordered online from the Renfro Foods website.
In conclusion, Renfro Foods stands out for its commitment to quality and innovation in the food industry. Their diverse range of products meets the needs of consumers seeking flavor-packed options.
