homemade burgers...

 

get you some ground meat, season it with pepper, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, chop up some onions and jalapenos and mix it all together and mold into burgers.  Will change your outlook on a good burger everything else won't taste the same lol.  I like to throw some pepper jack or cheddar cheese on mine 

Roquefort

 

get you some ground meat

 

Grind your own flat steaks.  Seriously....  nothing better.

That way you can make sure there is NO pink goo in there. LOL

But you ain't lying right there that will make the best burgers ever.

Roquefort

Roquefort for the salad, bacon for the burger. 

although, everything is better infinitely with both.

Key to a good burger lean to fat ratio, 70/30 being excellent.  Hamburgers made from wagyu beef are pretty darn good.

A note about grinding your own...you can add frozen, sweetened butter, cubed, to your meat to increase the fat content.  Flat steak is fairly lean. 

 

 

For you guys that want to try it, but don't have a grinder, you can use that food processor that's still in the box from your wedding, lol.  Just cut the meat into 1" cubes, and freeze on a cookie tray fro about 20-30 minutes.  You'll have to do small batches, about two burgers at a time, but it works great.

Wife has a kitchen Aid mixer and a grinder fits on the end. Just tried on some venison and it works great.

The big box stores will closeout all the meat processing equipment after hunting season.

All this burger talk got me hungry. Just made some venison/beef burgers. 1lb ground venison, 1/2lb ground chuck, some worcestershire, chopped garlic, 1/2 and egg, salt and pepper, American cheese and all the fixin's. Fried them on the stove because the storms that came thru destroyed my grill and flipped my patio furniture. Mmm mmm good.   

Um venison burgers. Freeze some bacon and ground in at about 1/4 ratio. Bacon deer cheese burgers. Over hickory. Uhmmm

Anybody no how to make pickled eggs? I used to buy them in jars. And they where slightly hot. Only thing you could see in the juice was a pinch of red pepper flakes. But u could pick up on something else u couldn't put your finger on.

Give me a reason to buy me some chickens again. Please! .

Or pickled hotdogs?

Bout every two years, there's a food thread, and someone asks for a food forum.  I doubt there would ever be enough traffic to support an entire forum category.

 

 

As a daily bassresource user and a passionate chef --- I'd be on that forum every day. Heck, if y'all behave I might just give you my perfected Crawfish/Shrimp Etouffee recipe... or if you're REALLY good I might give you my from scratch red beans & rice recipe!... you'd have to be REALLY good to get that though.

I do.  Depending on the peppers you use, if any, you can make them spicy or blow-your-head-off hot.  PM me if you want the recipe.

After sitting dormant for at least 10 years, I broke the electric FryDaddy out of the closet on Christmas day and made blueberry fritters with a sweet cream cheese glaze. Well the kids must have really enjoyed them and asked for them again this morning.

Red beans and rice is awesome...i have a friend fro mNew Orleans and she gave me her recipe and half the stuff she said to use i couldn't find here in VA  I am off to make some chili now....

My wife and I love to cook.  One of the reasons we bought our current home is the fact that it has 2 kitchens. 

 

Both are hers, but I don't mind helping.

I will be so glad to cook the things I really like again. After the pancreatitus if I have more than a deck of cards size of red meat its off to ER or at best just pain killers. Love venison but its the same almost as beef for me!! Quit chewing tobacco a number of years ago and was eating spicy flavored food but that too came to a big stop. Am sooo hoping to get back to the big flavors. You can only eat chicken and veggies so many ways!!

We'll see.....good eats to all.

If Glenn wants to know about scrapple he can ask me.

I make the best south of Md. and north of Md. east and west of Md too.

Your on !! I will take that challenge !! LOL !!

Gotta wait till we butcher next season though , already out !!

There are 2 different meanings to pon hoss or as the Dutch did it ( pon haus ) both scrapple and pon haus were the same thing to them but pon hoss takes a little different meaning , it has less by product and is consisted of mainly corn meal , scrapple on the other hand is the full Monty !!!

Y'all Yankees got it all wrong. Scrapple is disgusting. It ranks right up their with stewed opossum. Now souse meat and head cheese thats another story. Both of those beat scrapple out of the park.

My grandma used to make head cheese and I can remember seeing that pig head sticking out of the ol big pot she used to cook in. I t was actually good stuff and full of meat. Haven't tried it since....since the stuff I've seen in stores looks like just jelly.

Christmas used to be head cheese, luttafisk, kippered salmon, and this flat bread that was awesome.

Depends on who is fixin the possum !!  LOL !!

 

Souse ?????  you can eat Souse and not have a taste for scrapple ????

 

I ain't no dang yankee first of all , all these recipes came from my great grandparents , the biggest secret is in the amount of cornmeal and wheat flour you use to blend the taste in the scrapple , and we SOUTHERNERS ain't got it wrong   LOL !!
