The Burger Quest

Started my holidays today and thought I would celebrate with some really good burgers and a few assorted drinks. I used two pounds of hamburger mixed with half a package of onion soup mix, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder and enough worcestershire sauce to moisten the hamburger. I then mixed the spices into the hamburger. Then I made one patty, spread about two tablespoons of cream cheese on the patty and covered with finely chopped jalapeno pepper. I then made another patty and covered the first patty making sure to seal in the cheese. This makes one very big hamburger. I then grilled the burgers and finished off by topping them with Dianes Regular BBQ sauce and Club House Chicken Spice. Put them on a bun with lettuce, tomatoes. Quite good. I will keep experimenting over the summer. Stay tuned.

Korean Steak Marinade

Got this new marinade recipe from a friend out in California. I will be giving it a try this weekend. Watch for a review sometime this weekend or early next week.

Jalapeno Burgers

Well tried to make Jalapeno burgers last night. They were ok but not outstanding. I think I know what was missing so I will try again sometime next week and if they turn out really well I will post the recipe.

BBQ Pizza Season About to Begin

Well now that the nice weather has arrived, it is time to start making pizzas on the BBQ. I have been doing some research on various sites and look forward to the best pizza quest of 2010. Came across a great pizza website (http://pizzatherapy.com) Be sure to check it out.

Caesar Salad Recipe

Here is the salad recipe
1. 2 cloves of garlic or one teaspoon of garlic powder
2. 1/2 cup of salad oil
3. 3/4 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1 1/2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
2 tablespoons of lemon juice

Mix all ingredients in a container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Pour dressing over salad, add croutons and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. I realize some people do not like to put raw egg into the recipe but I have been doing this for 25 years with no problem.
