When I was a youngster, the standard fare for July 4th was chicken stew cooked over an open fire in a big cast iron wash pot, and dessert was home-made ice cream, usually peach and strawberry. I've come near to foundering myself on a number of those occasions

Other favorites:

Blackberry cobbler with home-made vanilla ice cream. Especially good made with wild blackberries.

Banana pudding, especially if Mom made the vanilla pudding from scratch. I was the one who wanted banana pudding instead of a cake for my birthday.

Check your nearest Cracker Barrel restaurant / gift shop. My dad gets horehound candy at the one in Buda, TX.

Oh JEEZ, I used to sit in front of the oven watching the stuff bubble as it cooked with the mixed smells of the hot berries along with the golden-brown crust of the cobbler, and then when you dished it out - the wave of smells would hit you and then you'd put the ice cream on top and smother it, only to watch it immediately start melting............

Yummmmmmmmmm!!
