When Americans turn on the grill, beef comes first

For many Americans, summer means it's time for outdoor grilling — so, what foods do Americans most like to grill? 

They say beef is their favorite food to barbecue: it's the choice of 39% of Americans, over chicken at 27%. Fewer Americans pick pork (11%), vegetables (10%), or fish (10%). Results were similar when we asked this question back in 2012, when beef was also America's top choice for the grill.
