The Fatty Burger, we love a good fatty and we’ve made lots of variations, with lots more to come. But, tonight we wanted burgers…not just any old burger, but a burger that combined all the goodness aka bacon and cheese of a fatty. So, we stuffed 1/2lb. burgers with bacon and cheese and added the bacon weave. Plus, we added lots of garlic to…

Easy, delicious and…

Buffalo Style Meatballs We were invited to a neighbor’s potluck and asked to bring an appetizer. Ken wanted to bring little meatballs “Buffalo style”. Using our favorite ground beef, which is so very lean, our meatballs didn’t shrink the way ordinary fattier ground beef does. So, instead of golf ball size we had more like tennis ball size. Ken seasoned them with < and basted…

Patti’s Philly Cheese Steak Patti’s Philly Cheese Steak, Patti knows something about Philly cheese steaks, she was born and raised in Philly and something was missing from her sandwich: much meat. We fixed that with a big sirloin stuffed with smoked cheese and covered with grilled onions. No American cheese here because we stuffed it with smoked Gouda. Now, this was a cheese steak seasoned…
