Throw those burgers and franks on the grill — summer's finally here. Good Housekeeping Research Institute tested 35 different ketchups, yellow and spicy brown mustards, and relishes to find the best for a backyard barbecue. Load up your hot dogs and burgers with these zesty winners.

Ketchup: Hunt's Ketchup ranked first for its rich, "complex" flavor, which was the perfect balance of tangy tomatoes and real sugar (not high-fructose corn sugar). Mustard: Grey Poupon Deli Mustard edged out 17 other mustards with a thick, "almost creamy" texture and a mildly spicy flavor that tasters loved. Relish: Mt. Olive Dill Relish is briny, tart and crisp, which testers likened to crunchy "chopped pickles."
