The best part of the Fourth of July is indisputably the cookout, whether that's lakeside with your family and a huge grill or TV-side in your unfurnished apartment with your roommate and a stovetop. (It still counts as a cookout because we opened the windows.)
Regrettably, though, our stomachs do not have an infinite capacity for food. If you're looking to maximize your available storage this Independence Day, you'll need to prioritize your treats -- not by how good each food is on its own, necessarily, but by how vital it is to the cookout experience.
SEE ALSO:Song of the Summer talking points to sound like you know what you're talking about at BBQsWe'd suggesting prioritizing according to this ranking. And, for the record, you don't actually need to wait an hour before getting back in the pool.
15. Macaroni salad

14. Cherry pie
Credit: Shutterstock/ehrlifLet us be clear: cherry pie's low ranking here is not an indictment of cherry pie. Cherry pie is delicious, second only to strawberry rhubarb in the "summer pies" department. But it's not the quintessential Fourth of July dessert. Save your sweet tooth for something a little more on-the-nose.
13. Coleslaw

12. Potato chips

11. Burgers

But burgers are so versatile -- delicious in each season, compatible with so many toppings, cheeses, and sauces -- that it seems too vague to focus on them at your cookout. Please. Trust us on this.
10. Brats

Not as long as there's a hot dog around, anyway. Please save your brats for July 5 and be sure to add lots of sauerkraut.
9. Strawberry shortcake
Credit: Shutterstock/farbledSweet, biscuit-y cake, sugared strawberries, enough Cool Whip to fill a small boat -- what's not to love? Well, the only caveat here is that strawberry shortcake is a little messy, and it'll probably need its own plate or bowl. If the extra mess is cool with you, shortcake away. It's a verb now!
8. Deviled eggs

If you are truly bananas for this country, you can even make a barbecue version.
7. Kebabs

Plus, the savory char of chicken on the grill is one of summertime's most essential flavors.
6. Potato salad

But on that weekend, you gotta save room for a huge helping -- preferably with mayo andmustard seeds.
5. Baked beans

And baked beans are one of the finest Fourth of July sides of them all. In fact, if baked beans are around, it is practically a sin to eat a hot dog without eating them on the side. You don't want to disappoint Duke the dog, do you?
4. BBQ ribs

3. Corn on the cob
Credit: Shutterstock/Charlene BayerleGrilled corn slathered in butter is a delight all summer long (and especially during corn harvest time), but it's also an indispensable part of July 4. Here's why: those little corn holders that also look like corn. They are not optional.
2. Firecracker Popsicles
Credit: Youtube/ILuv FuzzySTUFFFirecracker Popsicles, also known as Bomb Pops depending on which brand you prefer, require virtually no preparation. Why? They are just popsicles in a box. Some other good things about them: they are red, white, and blue; they are so cold, and you can eat them while you're floating in an inner tube. Friends, they are the perfect Fourth of July dessert.
1. Hot dogs

Make them all-beef, make them turkey, make them veggie -- do what you gotta do -- but bless your hot dogs with grill marks and potato buns and they will bless you right back.
We don't care what toppings you use.
