Our Big Mouth Burger because you’ll open wide and say “ahhh that’s good”. We did these “Animal Style” this time. What this means is that these are done on a griddle instead of a grill grate. Then, the burgers are brushed with mustard as they go onto the “Hot Griddle”. This is a fast cook, so we gave it a quick “Kiss of Smoke”…
Homemade Beer Brats! My love of sausage making has been on hold for 32 years. I was waiting for life to slow down a bit. Then it dawned on me just what am I waiting for?
