Before I start, there were some great entries in the Burger Blowout and I think the first and second place winners deserved their rankings. Great job guys! Congrats!
I was entry #15 - Bacon wrapped, mesquite smoked, sausage-mac-n-cheese stuffed burger
The only reason I am posting this burger is the sausage-mac-n-cheese stuffing was incredible, so much so I had to hide some from the family to be able to have enough left to build my burger entry. In our family, the burger entry was nice but the sausage-mac-n-cheese was the big hit and winner - hands down. (It is going into a fatty soon!) So I thought I would share that recipe. I used:
8 oz (or so) of small elbow macaroni - maybe 10 oz. Call it a little more than half the box...
1 lbs Jimmy Dean Hot sausage - chopped/scrambled/drained
8-10 oz. Velveta
10 oz. can of Original Ro-tel
Mix everything in the pot until thoroughly melted,blended.
Here's a pic of the finished sausage-mac-n-cheese:
I can see adding some diced jalapeno to the above as well if you want to kick it up a notch.
Of course I bacon wrapped my burger using 1/2 pound of center cut bacon
This is my entry...
Lacy was bored with it all because we weren't providing any treats
