BBQ Brethren "Burger" Throwdown!

[Happy Hapgood]

Winner winner mad wife dinner!

At least it wasn't a 2x4.

Hmmm, could be a good song title. I've got lot's or REAL World experience if you decide to write one. She's been in Paradise now on 36 years! :tsk:

 

[landarc]

Ahhh! Finally, the naked burger submittal, outstanding! :thumb:

And the turkey burger with bacon wrapped turkey thingies, great stuff :thumb:. I am wondering though Palehorse, why are you eating turkey, health? low fat? your meal confuses me. :twitch:

Wife doesn't like red meat. Much. We compromise on pork. She's a Zumba instructor, so she likes to stay light.

So, I need to make friends in the neighborhood to justify the growing hobby! Hopefully 'smoke' will help.

You guys are lucky, you get a burger when the wife is mad. All I get is a Jam sandwich. :tsk:

Hmmm, Zumba instructor and in L.A., explains a lot. My girlfriend is taking up Zumba, also talking about cleanses, fortunately we live 800 miles apart currently (there are seriously unfortunate parts of that equation though :tsk. But, I get beef for the time being. :becky:

Zumba?? Is that the clear beer like product that was popular in the early 90s?

Stuffed burgers, using the Pocket Burger Press.
Bacon cheddar and bacon pepper jack burgers on a toasted bun. Grilled using the reverse sear method on the weber performer. Topped with fresh lettuce, mayo and pickles. Along with a side of onion rings, catsup and a ice cold pepsi to wash it down.

I have no farking idea what Zumba is, but in my not so humble opinion, anything you cook at home from scratch is way better than the processed foods most Mercans eat. I guarantee that my burger made from home ground beef was healthier than anything you can get at a drive-thru window. And, probably healthier than what you can buy at a "healthy" restaurant.

The best way to eat both well and healthy, is to cook the food you eat yourself.

I'm still trying to figure out how Health and Burger can be used in the same sentence. It's an oxymoron.

In the Immortal words of Neil Young:

It's Better To Burn Out Than To Fade Away.

Zumba is not a drink that wasn't in the least like even bad beer from the 80's. It is a Latin rhythm version of Jazzercise and lots of women are into it now. WTF does this have to do with burgers?

Onions rings, nice touch.

Rotisserie Burgers

Guys, I can’t believe there are already 12 pages on this thread and it is only Tuesday. Nice burgers all around!

For this entry, I had some fun with a new toy of mine. I am visiting friends outside Denver who happen to have a 22.5” Weber kettle on which my new ring adapter fits beautifully. Combine that, my trusty Auspit rotisserie and a Rib-o-Lator and I was off to the races.

Tonight’s dinner was a pepper-brie stuffed burger with trimmings.

The burger meat was mixed with minced garlic, Worcestershire, soy sauce, Bovine Bold, diced red onions and some pepper.

It went on the hickory-smoke-filled kettle with a mild heat for about an hour along with the burger trimmings (various peppers and grilled red onions).

For sides I did a zucchini and summer squash medley and bacon-wrapped thyme-dusted scallops on grilled sun-dried tomato & garlic polenta.


To compensate for the altitude, we made sure to drink extra vodka.

After adding a slice of cheddar to top the burger for good measure, I warmed the foccia bread and then added fresh avocado, crispy deep-fried onions, mayo and Dijon mustard to finish it off, and a New Belgium 1554 Black Ale to wash it down.

A tasty little surf and turf if I do say so myself. Thanks for looking!

Mmmmmmm, pepper Brie....

Could Brie be the new SPAMfish? :shock:

 

[BBQ Bacon]

Nice spread J.R. That looks awesome. My humble turkey burger doesn't stand a chance...at least it's not chicken!

 

[Cack]

I'll post my entree tomorrow ... cooking tonight

 

[Rib-O-Lator]

J.R. those rib-o-burgers look great. i don't know if my jaw would un-hinge that far but i would like to try, i can feel it cramping just thinking about it.

My goodness good man, this looks MARVELOUS...

And trust me, good brethren, for all the quirkyness California can offer...we're down home folk. I credit my Rocky Mountain upbringing for that.

But I'll prove that to you as time goes on, with pr0n...and good conversation.

Um, maybe I'm missing something here, but, doesn't that mean you're NOT Californian?:mrgreen:

Nice entry Johnny. Great looking food.
