So I scored a nice haul on 80-20 burger today , $2.97lb. I made a cute little burger for my wife that I didn't even waste any camera time, she doesn't want to be a media star and neither will the burgers I make for her, puny six ounce thing with one slice of swiss. Ah, but my burger, 3/4 of a pound! First we must have bacon, because bacon makes everything better, and what could be better than a burger fried in bacon grease? NOTHING! I'm still working my way thru this store bought stuff before I put my homemade maple bacon on the griddle, I've only got about twelve pounds left. Of course I caramelized the onions in some of the bacon grease.
Next up is to introduce a 3/4 pound burger to the flat top, makes a beautiful sizzling sound with that bacon grease.
While that burger is getting happy I take the opportunity to mayo up my home made burger bun and get the onions and bacon in place
I was thinking of slaw, tater salad, or maybe some frys's, things move so fast with a flat top there's hardly enough time to be a shutterbug. Get some jack cheese melted onto that baby
Covered up with a little squirt of water, get it on the bun
The only side this burger called out for was a beer.
I know I'm just scratching the surface of what this griddle will do, it's got to be right up there with a Weber kettle as far as versatility. Of course it's nice not to be heating up the house when it's 109º outside, but that's something most of y'all don't have to take into consideration. Time to take a griddle break the next couple of days and fire up the big boy then the Weber, it's all good. Thanks for lookin' in, stay safe, we sure as hell are! RAY
