is Blowin Smoke!
It's a question for the ages and one being explored here by some brave backyard cooks
Lets start with onions. Foul root that on it's own, not good
Next up, some jalapenos. Always a good addition to nachos, burgers, etc. First lets put in some goat cheese and on one fig butter
Still missing something...ok, that should do it
This is thirsty work
Our doxie has offered to trade her kibble for some bacon
(forgot burger prep photos for the story, stick with me)
Jalapenos and onions aren't a meal, lets get a bun toasted
Prep bun with lettuce (look Ma, eating my veggies), bacon, and fig butter
Add burger patty stuffed with goat cheese
And a cross section look
Ok, lets get the negative out of the way. I overcooked onion rings and jalapeno poppers. I made rookie mistake of time over done when it's done. I've done both before, but this ended up obviously quicker than normal
-Jalapeno popper. Good flavor, but overcooked and soft peppers were disappointing, however, goat cheese and fig butter did work really well and will be doing good but properly cooked
-Onion rings. I mean, yeah, overcooked, but it was crispy bacon with a super soft onion in middle, I could've eaten a plate of these and called it a day. I think photo aspect was hurt more than flavor aspect
-The burger. I knew fig jam went well with goat cheese, trader joes was out so tried fig butter, never had combo on burger, but it was a winner and one I'll be doing again for sure. Sweetness of fig offset the rich goat cheese, saltiness of bacon, it all came together
