So salad probably doesn’t immediately come to mind when thinking of something delicious to prepare your dad on Father’s Day, but as far as salads go this one is pretty manly! A wedge of crisp iceberg lettuce, oven roasted tomatoes, pepper bacon (which of course it makes everything better) and creamy dressing made with our Pendleton Barbeque Sauce will make any dad a happy (and full!) one this Sunday!
