Costco is a great place to start planning your next meal. Whether you want to start with a protein and make something from scratch or pick up a pre-made entree, you’ll have plenty of options.
We buy sleeve after sleeve of Kirkland Signature Burgers every year during grilling season. Their brats are also great on the barbecue. These garlic butter shrimp are good all year round.
You have to give Costco credit for how adventurous and geographically diverse it is with its pre-made meal creations in the deli section. While the dishes might not always be the most authentic, they clearly try to draw inspiration from different parts of the world in creating them. This Kirkland … Read more
If I were making a list of homecooked comfort meals, pot roast would definitely be on it. It’s amazing how good a fairly cheap cut of beef can taste when you slow-cook it for hours! This Kirkland Signature Beef Pot Roast from Costco cuts the cooking time down to just … Read more

Both are stuffed pastas, but tortelloni are bigger and made with vegetarian … Read more
The High Liner Sea Cuisine Ponzu Glazed Cod from Costco is easy to make but looks like a gourmet entree. Combining wild cod with the flavors of ponzu, soy sauce, garlic, red bell pepper and lemon sounds pretty good to me! We all know how hard it is to make … Read more
We love ribs in our house, but they’re not the easiest thing to make. They can easily turn out fatty, dry or tough if you don’t prep and cook them just right! Getting the seasoning right can be tricky too. Luckily Costco offers some decent options for rib lovers looking … Read more

I have to admit, I don’t think I’d ever tried bratwurst until I picked up these Kirkland Signature Brats recently. We love grilling hot dogs like the Kirkland Signature Beef Wieners and the Kirkland Signature Beef Polish Sausages during the summer, so I was excited to try them. I was … Read more
We love barbecue foods in our house, but we don’t really have the equipment to make authentic barbecue at home. Like lots of people, we just have a basic gas barbecue. It’s convenient but doesn’t offer the smoky, slow-roasted flavors you can get with charcoal and wood. These Smokin’ Joe’s … Read more
