9 Publix Deals Floridians Can Grab Now for a July 4th Cookout

The Fourth of July is a week out, and Publix prepared this week’s ad with your cookout in mind.

Beef prices are sky-high this year, so budget-conscious hosts are leaning on BOGO chicken, $5.99 ribs, and shrimp off the grill instead.

This week’s ad delivers on all of it.

Here’s what to load in your cart.

BOGO Chicken Breast

Chicken breast is your cookout MVP this year, and Publix is running it buy-one-get-one (BOGO).

With beef prices high due to a national herd shortage, this BOGO chicken is the deal that rescues your Fourth of July spread.

Marinate the chicken overnight in mojo or Italian dressing, throw it over the coals, and you’ll feed a crowd for a fraction of what steak runs.

Publix doesn’t print a flat price on these, so glance at the per-pound tag. But two packs for one is the headline.

BOGO Hot Dogs And Buns

No Fourth of July cookout is complete without hot dogs on the grill, and Publix has them buy-one-get-one this week.

Sahlen’s hot dogs are BOGO, so two packs run you the price of one. The ad doesn’t print a base price on those, so check the tag for your store’s price, but the second pack is free.

Don’t forget the buns.

Nature’s Own hot dog buns are buy-one-get-one at $6.99, about $3.50 a bag, and King’s Hawaiian buns are BOGO too if you want the sweet, fluffy upgrade.

Char them up, set out the mustard and relish, and you’ve fed the kids and grandkids for next to nothing.

BOGO White Shrimp

Publix peeled and deveined jumbo white shrimp is buy-one-get-one this week, and shrimp on the grill is about as Florida as a cookout gets.

The jumbo 24-ounce bag rings up at $25.49 for the pair, around $12.75 a bag after the BOGO.

Feeding a smaller crowd?

The smaller 12-ounce box runs $12.99 buy-one-get-one, about $6.50 a box.

Skewer them, brush on garlic butter, and they’re done before the coals fully settle.

Already peeled means no standing over the sink, which you’ll thank yourself for on a 92-degree afternoon.

St. Louis Spareribs At $5.99 A Pound

Ribs anchor any good cookout, and Publix has St. Louis-style spareribs at $5.99 a pound.

Low and slow over the grill, a rack of these turns a Florida backyard into the best address on the block.

Pork stays far kinder to the wallet than beef this summer, which makes ribs a smart centerpiece for a crowd.

Rub them down Friday night, and come Saturday, all that’s left is patience and a cold drink in the shade.

Two racks can feed a party without denting your budget.

Tyson Party Wings, $5.99 After BOGO

Wings keep everyone happy until the main meal lands.

Tyson Any’tizers wings are buy-one-get-one at $11.99, which drops each bag to about $5.99.

Stack an Ibotta rebate on top of it, and budget shoppers are getting them down to nearly a couple of dollars a bag.

Bake or air-fry them, toss in buffalo or barbecue, and set them out as the first guests roll in.

Any’tizers wings travel well to a pool party and vanish faster than you can refill the plate.

BOGO Strawberries At $2.49 A Carton

Dessert gets easy with strawberries buy-one-get-one. At $4.99 a carton, the BOGO brings each one down to about $2.49.

Hull them for shortcake, dip them in chocolate, or pile them over vanilla ice cream and pair them with blueberries for a red, white, and blue finish.

Two cartons for the price of one leaves plenty for the table and a few to snack on while you cook.

Sweet, cheap, and festive is tough to top.

Tropicana Refreshers At $1.49 Each

A Florida cookout runs on cold drinks, and Publix has Tropicana Refreshers buy-one-get-one at $2.99, landing each bottle near $1.49.

Coffee, soda, and beer specials fill out the rest of the beverage aisle.

So, you can fill your cooler with deals.

Fill a cooler with ice and let your guests help themselves, which keeps the fridge clear for food.

Summer Produce And BOGO Cucumbers

Produce rounds out any balanced cookout, and a few picks are priced to move at Publix this week.

Cucumbers are buy-one-get-one at $3, about $1.50 each, ideal for a crisp salad or a relish tray alongside the dip.

Sweet corn is cheap enough to grill a dozen ears without a second thought, while melons, peaches, and grapes are value-priced for the season.

A thick slice of ripe tomato on a burger is summer itself, and cold watermelon on a humid afternoon does more for your guests than any bag of chips.

Buy what’s in season, and the sides nearly make themselves.

Viva Towels And Cookout Extras

Cleanup supplies are on sale at Publix this week, too, and you’ll burn through them at a cookout.

Viva paper towels lead a batch of household BOGOs this week.

Paper plates, foil pans, and napkins keep the dishes to a minimum, which is the whole point during a holiday.
